The Reality Reports

What Happens When Mouthwash Goes Down: Most mouthwashes contain ingredients that can upset your stomach if swallowed in significant amounts. The alcohol content in many brands ranges from 15% to 27%, which is stronger than beer or wine.  When this enters your stomach, it can irritate the lining and cause nausea, vomiting, or general discomfort. Even alcohol-free versions contain chemicals like fluoride, chlorhexidine, and essential oils that were designed for your mouth, not your digestive system.

Why Fiber Matters: Fiber is an essential part of a healthy diet, yet it’s often overlooked.  It helps keep the digestive system moving smoothly, supports healthy gut bacteria, and can even lower the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes.
