Keeping your breath fresh during the fast
Posted: Sun Mar 01, 2009 1:49 am
Hey Guys,
How do you keep your breath fresh during the fast? Is there any guidance in regards to using breath fresheners or gum?
I'm fairly certain God would want us to uphold the virtue of cleanliness. Especially considering the fast is the optimal time for teaching.
I personally use these small strips that you place on your tongue that dissolve instantly and freshen your mouth. I'm not consuming anything, and I'm definitely not satisfying any form of hunger or thirst, so i figure it's permissible.
It'd still be nice to have some sort of confirmation though.
