Mouthwash...what's in it?

Known to cause oral cancer, you may be surprised to learn that ethanol is a primary ingredient in most mouthwashes. In the UK it may be under a different name.  Isopropyl alcohols and ethanol (grain alcohol) are very drying and irritating solvents made from propylene, a petroleum derivative and they are known to cause approximately thirty-six thousand cases of oral cancer per year.

"Keep out of reach of children. If more than used for rinsing is accidentally swallowed, get medical help or contact a Poison Control Center right away."

In simpler terms, it is a process that keeps your body's cells in proper balance by taking old or damaged parts of a cell and recycling them. These recycled bits and bobs are turned into amino acids that can be used for fuel and more.
