Oral malodor, often a source of social discomfort, affects a significant portion of the population. One proposed remedy involves the use of a common household ingredient. This ingredient, derived from fermented apples, has garnered attention for its potential health applications.
Historically, this acidic liquid has been employed for its purported antimicrobial and digestive properties. Advocates suggest its use as a gargle or oral rinse could reduce bacterial load within the oral cavity, a factor often contributing to unpleasant breath. However, the scientific evidence supporting this application remains limited, and potential risks associated with its acidity must be considered.
