Why Don't They Tell Us to Clean Our Tonsils?

BROOKLYN, N.Y. - Jan. 7, 2018 - PRLog -- Tonsil removal is nowhere near as common as it used to be and that means millions of people keep their tonsils their whole life. But how many people know how to care for them? If ignored, they can trap bacteria and debris leading to swelling and more frequently, terrible breath. Finally a website has launched that focuses on this major cause of bad breath and the simple steps to treat, prevent and ultimately cure it.

One young woman's journey to curing bad breath lead her in many directions, from diet changes to tooth extractions to all kinds of natural gargles. Nothing worked. The problem was just out of reach until the discovery of tonsil stones or tonsilloliths. Tonsil stones are an accumulation of sulfur-producing bacteria, caused by mucus and debris that are trapped in the tonsil. They are usually white and slightly hard with a strong foul odor.

She began exploring her own tonsils and low and behold, stones appeared. The bad breath that she had almost given up trying to cure was suddenly completely manageable. With a simple mouth irrigator, salt water and vinegar, it was virtually eliminated within a week. Incorporating tonsil cleaning in a daily routine was the answer all along. No more embarrassment. No more covering her mouth to talk. It was truly life changing.

The website https://www.itsyourtonsils.com was launched to share her story and teach others the simple techniques that can cure bad breath. The website includes instructions for checking your breath, a detailed explanation of tonsil stones, video demonstrations, as well as a small selection of essential tools.

While tonsils may not be the cause of all cases of bad breath, it most certainly is for millions of people. By spreading the word about tonsil care and managing tonsil stones, fewer people will have to experience the embarrassment of chronic bad breath. #itsyourtonsils https://www.itsyourtonsils.com
