Experts warn using mouthwash more than twice a day can give you cancer

A health alert linking the over-use of mouthwash with cancer was issued by medical experts. The “elevated risk” emerged from Europe-wide research into the popular and high-selling breath-freshening product. Study leader Dr David Conway, from the University of Glasgow, warned: “We have found that using mouthwash excessively – three or more times a day – raises the risk of cancer .
“I know that some people who regularly smoke or drink alcohol use mouthwash to hide the smell. "I would advise against any excessive use of it.”
