Tongue Scraping: A Simple Oral Detox
Tongue scraping is another ancient Ayurvedic practice that involves gently scraping the surface of your tongue with a U-shaped tool, typically made of copper or stainless steel. The tongue can harbor a significant amount of bacteria and cellular debris, which can contribute to bad breath. By removing this coating, tongue scraping can improve oral hygiene, freshen breath, and some users report that it enhances their sense of taste. It is best done in the morning before brushing your teeth. This simple, quick habit is a great addition to your daily oral care routine.
