Ginger, Turmeric and Oral Health: Gums and Fresh Breath

The mouth is the entry point for bacteria. Ginger and turmeric are traditionally used for oral hygiene : healthy gums, fresh breath and antibacterial action.

🔬 How they act

• Antibacterial : ginger (gingerols) inhibits oral bacteria responsible for plaque and bad breath
• Anti-inflammatory of the gums : turmeric reduces inflammation of the gums (gingivitis) — studied as a mouthwash
• Fresh breath : neutralizes the sulfur compounds responsible for halitosis
• Antioxidant : supports the tissues of the mouth

🦷 Why “no added sugar” is crucial here

Plaque bacteria feed on sugar. A juice beneficial for the mouth must be no added sugar — this is the case for INTI. You benefit from the antibacterial action of ginger without feeding cariogenic bacteria.

💡 Advice

INTI does not replace brushing or flossing. It is an internal support (antibacterial + anti-inflammatory) in addition to good hygiene and visits to the dentist.
