Hi All. When I was in Peru on my 500 hour yoga turning, we had daily Ayurveda lessons as well. A super way of keeping your mouth and gums healthy is through this simple recipe using kitchen cupboard spices. Make up a batch, store in an airtight container in your bathroom so you make it easily available to you. Equal parts: black pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove powders. Choose organic if possible. Mix together and take a pinch and give your lovely gums a good rub for about one minute.

Rinse throughly and then brush teeth as usual. I recommend avoiding toothpaste containing fluoride. There are many out there on the market such as Aloe Dent or Jason.

Excellent! Thanks for the tip. I've got three of the ingredients but none in powder form at the moment. So, for future reference.
