Questions & Answers

 

What are some causes of bad breath?

There are many causes of bad breath. For our discussions we offer three basic considerations:

  1. One is mouth odors that result from bacteria fostered by poor dental hygiene, trapped food particles, or mouth infection.
  2. Another may be caused by physical or medical problems. If either of the above is chronic, the professional services of a dentist or physician may be helpful.
  3. Plantafresh® addresses those natural breath odors caused by digesting certain foods and drinks. Even if you brush your teeth and have no medical problems, digestion of certain items will cause bad breath. Plantafresh works to diminish the effects of this most common cause of day-to-day bad breath.

What is Plantafresh®?

Plantafresh® is a herbal, vegetable based, patented formula that addresses bad breath caused by the normal digestion of food and drink. It is made of all natural ingredients: wintergreen, peppermint, and a unique vegetable root extract of cinquefoil, all in a tasty cane sugar base. It is used like an after-dinner mint and is so effective only a few mint-like pastilles clear bad breath for hours.

How does the Plantafresh® patented triple action formula differ from all others?

Plantafresh® pastilles are the only fresheners that: First, freshens your mouth by stimulating a natural flushing action of saliva while introducing a mild, pleasant mint flavor. Second, Plantafresh® forms an herbal solution that, when swallowed, inhibits the formation of offensive digestive odors from the acid stomach and sulfur compounds created by the breakdown of food and liquids [a long lasting freshening process]. Third, the formula tends to calm and soothe digestion. [There are no parsley or soybean oils, or artificial chemicals used that many people find difficult to digest.]

How was it discovered?

ISO DENT, DENT GMBH, a producer of dental products, was requested by dentists to find an all-natural solution for patients with bad breath. After extensive herbal and homeopathic document research they found an herbal-based formula that produced a natural cleansing action of the mouth, and, when swallowed, neutralized odor forming compounds within the digestive system. The functionality was so different and effective that it was eligible for, and awarded a patent.

What is an "Internal" or "Digestive" Working Breath freshener?

Plantafresh® works differently than common breath mints, drops, gums and washes which only use a positive aroma to try to cover up negative odor. They do not address the underlying cause of the odors in healthy people [digestion] and so bad breath keeps returning. You must chew and chew, suck and suck, spray and spray, to cover up the odor. Plantafresh® works differently. Its herbal formula works with the digestive system to inhibit the root causes of the bad odors. Since this action takes place inside the stomach and the mouth, the best way to express the difference is to call Plantafresh® an "Internal" or "Digestive" breath freshener.

How does the formula work?

The patented formula uses dehydrated cane sugar juice (sugar), not only to generate a pleasant taste and fresh feeling, but, because it is an integral part of the breath cleansing process. The sugar stimulates the saliva glands. This naturally flushes and cleanses the mouth. As Plantafresh® is chewed slowly, there is a special catalytic-like effect by the saliva on the other ingredients, so that when the potion is swallowed it reacts with the odor forming agents of digestion. Therefore, artificial and other sweeteners are not acceptable.

What is the best way to use [take] Plantafresh®?

To get the maximum effect, let 2 - 6 mints soften in your mouth then chew slowly and swallow. Your mouth is freshened immediately, but the long-term digestive effect starts as your food digests. Depending upon what and how much you ate, it may take up to 20 minutes to realize the full benefit. However, once it starts, it normally lasts for hours! The average number of servings per package is 10 to 15. Since each serving lasts for several hours, Plantafresh® is one of the most economical breath fresheners available.

What is in Plantafresh®, is it all natural?

Plantafresh® is made from all natural ingredients. There are no artificial ingredients, colors or flavors. In its patented formula are etheric oils of wintergreen and peppermint, a root extract of Cinquefoil and cane sugar. Peppermint is well known for its breath freshening properties and its calming effect upon digestion. Wintergreen offers a traditional, classic flavor. The Cinquefoil extract of a plant found in central and northern Europe [Tinctura Tormentillae] has been used for decades to calm gastric disorders. [Ref.: Herbal Drugs & Phytopharmaceuticals Edited by Norman Grainger Bisset.]

Are there other products like Plantafresh®?

No. Unlike parsley and peppermint based products the Plantafresh® formula and its functionality is patented. Consumer reaction for over 10 years in Europe and the U.S. has proven that nothing works better. There are no known adverse side effects.

Does Plantafresh® work for pets, namely dogs, with bad breath?

Definitely. Dogs love the flavor and will usually take them as a treat. We have released a special version for animals called Petafresh®.
