The Wrigley Company carried out a study on miswak which was published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
The study found that mints laced with miswak extract were 20 times more effective in killing bacteria than ordinary mints.
After half an hour, the mints laced with miswak extract killed about 60% of the bacteria where as the ordinary mints managed only 3.6%.
In the August issue of Journal of Periodontology (2008) appeared a study conducted by Swedish researchers on miswak.
The study apparently found that suspended Miswak pieces in a petridish (medium for culturing bacteria) were able to kill bacteria that cause periodontal disease with out being in physical contact with the bacteria.
The researchers suggested that Miswak might be giving antibiotics as gases trying to explain this phenomenon.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
