## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this product suitable for vegetarians/vegans? what is the source of the glycerin?**
A: I don't know the source of the glycerine., I do that that the product works very well along with the tongue brush. You will need to contact the manufacturer of the tongue gel to find that out., I would think that its has nothing to say its derived from any animal

**Q: After how many months does it expire?**
A: i dont think there is an actual expire date, is like a toothpaste, exactly the same, and I never seen an expire date on toothpaste

**Q: Does this kill good bacteria?**
A: This kills bad bacteria, germs on the tongue. It is the best product that I have ever purchased, my mouth is clean and fresh all day., I use whenever I brush my teeth. I never use mouth wash as they just mask bad smells. Highly recommend this tung gel. I've been using it for a few years now!

**Q: Does this come with the brush?**
A: mine didn't i bought the brush separately

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plays a part
*by P***L on 7 August 2020*

About 3 weeks ago I happened to notice my tongue had pretty gross coating covering most of the surface, so I decided to do something about it. Probably brushed my tongue 10 times before in 36 years so my tongue needed sorting. To cut a long story short, I use this as part of a new regime i have. It takes about 5 minutes -morning is best but I do it morning and night when possible. 1. Floss my teeth 2. Brush my teeth 3. Then I use a metal tongue scraper (available on Amazon) and gently scrape my tongue from the back to the tip as much as i want, until I've removed any major build ups. I rinse it after every scrape. 4. I then squirt some this on a Tongue brush (available on Amazon) and gently brush my tongue in circular motions for about a minute. 5. I then scrape my tongue again using another Tongue Scraper, that looks more like a toothbrush with a scraper head and bristles. This removes the gel and and further more gunk. 6. Wash my mouth out. done. Might adjust this over time and obviously there will be days were I can't be bothered. but the difference is really noticeable. Tongue looks pinker and more evenly coloured and the Rank Morning Breath has reduced massively. This is probably psychosomatic but I can taste food and drink more and my mouth generally feels fresher and happier than before. Can't give this 5 Stars as I'm using with other items that I've bought and it doesn't seem to last as long as I'd hope., but it plays a part and I am buying again.
