Simply shake, swish, and spiit it minutes before the needed time to be CLEAN! The effects might last up to an hour, so the sooner you start, the better. Sip little quantities and swirl in your mouth for at least one minute before spitting them out minutes before the targeted CLEAN time. Repeat until the entire bottle has been consumed. High-voltage detox mouthwash is not meant to be swallowed. The voltage used to create this mouthwash comes from citric acid and ascorbic acid (vitamin C). They work together to clean your teeth by removing stains and bad tastes from the surface of your teeth. As well, they help prevent tooth decay because their antibacterial properties kill bacteria that cause tooth decay (such as Streptococcus mutans). High-voltage detox mouthwash contains a lot of sugar, however, which could potentially lead to more serious health problems if used regularly. It also contains a large amount of alcohol, which could affect people who drink alcohol regularly or are already able to smell things like peppermint or eucalyptus after drinking something caffeinated. People who suffer from diabetes or hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) should not use this product due to its high sugar content. Those who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use high-voltage detox mouthwash either due to the alcohol content or flavors such as cinnamon or gingerbread.
