Saying Goodbye to Tongue Bacteria and Bad Breath #healthytongue

I partnered with this brand in exchange for product/compensation to share my honest opinion.

Did you know that the worst and grossest bacteria actually lives in the back of your tongue? Sure you can brush your tongue with your toothbrush but then you are getting that bacteria on your toothbrush! Yuck! Or maybe you don’t brush your tongue good because you have a gag reflex? I honestly have always used my toothbrush and never gave it a second thought. Now I can’t even imagine using my toothbrush to brush both my tongue and teeth.

Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a brush specifically for your tongue?

Well TUNG Brush is just that. It is a brush designed to actually clean all that yucky bacteria that lives in the back of your tongue. It is designed as well to work without setting off the gag reflex we all hate thanks to its flat design. You just brush with your TUNG Brush every time you brush your teeth for about ten seconds! That’s it!

TUNG Brush can be used alone or with the TUNG Gel. The gel uses a Zinc compound to help neutralize the sulfur gas (what we smell as bad breath) emitted by the bacteria. You don’t have to use the separate TUNG Gel though to enjoy the benefits of the TUNG Brush, just use water if you just want to work on the yucky bacteria!

For me, it has taken a few days to get used to not brushing my tongue with my toothbrush and to use my TUNG Brush separately. I have definitely noticed though a difference, especially when I forgot to use my TUNG Brush. I use it both in the morning and evening and when I wake up I no longer have a yucky taste left in my mouth! My tongue also feels cleaner or maybe that is just in my head!

Say goodbye to bad breath!

Did you know that scientists have proven that you can’t smell your own breath? Sure we all try to breath into our hands and sometimes it seems to work – but does it work all the time? Do you want to be that person walking around the office, school or just out that has bad breath? We had a girl in my high school that was notorious for bad breath and we just thought she didn’t brush her teeth. I had no idea that even if she did brush her teeth, it wouldn’t have helped! 90% of the odor-causing bacteria responsible for bad breath are found in biofilms on the tongue! Brushing your teeth and using mouthwash are not sufficient to remove these colonies of bacteria!

The Bottom Line on using a TUNG Brush

reduces the number of bacteria living on the tongue
helps neutralize the odors produced by bacteria waste when combined with TUNG Gel
can help reduce the risk of periodontal disease, which in turn is linked to diabetes, heart disease, and other health problems. Bacteria in your mouth are a significant contributor to periodontal disease!
