Zellies Xylitol Dental Mints, Cool Fruit Flavor, Single Jar, 250 Count

Finally! Zellie's is the 6th brand I've tried in my search for the perfect product. My mouth literally seals shut every 5-10 minutes without intervention so a pack of 40 mints (for $8-$15) only lasts a few days. I needed more for my money, high quality, low/no calories, a nice taste with at least an hour of relief. These Cool Fruit mints are tasty, give me 1-1.5 hours of relief (likely longer for others), dissolve well with no candy shell, and you get 250 for WAY less money than most brands. The bottle fits in my purse but I use mint tins and empty pill bottles to stash them everywhere. I only review products that truly impress or frustrate me, not bothering with mediocrity. These things have saved my sleep and my sanity. 10/10! Protect your teeth! Read on for information about how serious dry mouth is, why it may happen and the effects it can have on your physical and mental health (from a NON-medical professional). I've got Sjogren's Syndrome, which is a common autoimmune disorder that causes dry mouth and eyes (it's far more complex but if you suffer from those symptoms severely, find a rheumatologist to get tested). I went undiagnosed and combined with medications and not having a hyper-vigilant dental routine, it destroyed my teeth. I had to have them all extracted. This multi-year incident caused severe depression and isolation. Dentures are a total nightmare. At 45 I went from looking 35 to 60–constant senior citizen discount offers tanked my self esteem. People treated me like I was ignorant, I was viewed as less credible by many doctors, and it really made me avoid the public. Please don't let this happen to you. And please don't judge those with missing teeth as I used to.
