This mouthwash should be done in the morning, just after waking up and on an empty stomach. Prepare approx.
1 tablespoon of sunflower oil, put it in your mouth and «chew» it for about 5 minutes.
Towards the end of the application, the oil-saliva mixture becomes increasingly thin and white like milk. Now you can spit out the oil (never swallow it).
