Ceramic beads to put in water to purify the taste and reduce limescale deposits.easy to use, just put them in the water and wait at least 10 minutes (or more for better efficiency).I admit that the water tastes a little better.Instead of cleaning my kettle every 5 uses, I was able to last 15 days without having too many deposits.On the other hand, I have no scientific way to check the level of limescale.Multiple uses and almost unlimited lifePrice reasonable.

First purchase at Orinko and I am not disappointed at all. The activated carbon stick works, the water quality and taste are much better. The customer service is very reactive, I asked a question, they answered me within the hour. And they sent me my e-book the same evening I bought it. I strongly recommend this site!

This is a product I didn't know existed until I received it to test. Basically, it is a root to cut, to wet and then to pass on the teeth to clean them. I was very afraid of the taste because already the smell is very strong and not at all. Without being totally neutral the taste is very light and not unpleasant. As for the efficiency it is really surprising. The teeth are cleaner than with a toothbrush it is undeniable. The only small drawback is that if you go up to the base of the tooth you quickly make the gum bleed but otherwise it is really bluffing. To use if possible instead of one of daily shakes for a lasting action.

Set of 6 Activated Carbon Sticks that can purify the water in a carafe or aquarium.these sticks must be boiled before being placed in a carafe for drinking. For an aquarium, this step is unnecessary. They capture harmful substancesVery good value for money.

I have an excellent dental hygiene which earns me the admiration of my doctor, I do not have the choice because my medical treatments require it not to have too many worries but then what a discovery that this kit of Siwak that I absolutely did not know.The siwak, I discover it thus, is a tree with the multiple properties and whose roots are used since centuries as natural toothbrush. One scrapes with the nail one cm of the external layer to arrive at a stringy zone from which one separates the threads either manually or by chewing on it to have natural hairs. Then you brush without anything else than your saliva. 18 sticks of about 15 cm are included in the set. You can use each cm 5 to 6 times before cutting to get the next cm. Each stick is in a blister pack so that it doesn't dry out. You can feel the humidity when you take it out. The smell is curious, it is the least that one can say. The sap that these roots contain has many properties, including a natural form of fluorine. The cleaning takes more time than with a toothbrush, except that... without water, without toothpaste, we can use it a little where we want. The sap makes you salivate. The taste is very subjective, not really annoying. It is the friction that avoids tartar. I find it absolutely brilliant, a beautiful personal discovery. In addition, it can help if you leave a stick in strategic places. I looked at the prices and there for 18 sticks individually wrapped, it is cheap. I recommend without hesitation.

ORINKO offers us a box containing 18 Siwak Sticks to clean your teeth in a natural way. Siwak is the root of the Salvadora persica shrub, which is widespread in Africa, Asia and the Middle East. Its natural components gently clean and disinfect teeth, gums and tongue. The taste is quite pleasant and after use the teeth are a little whiter in a natural way. Some studies have recognized that the use of siwak could be more effective than toothbrushes and toothpaste.

18 Sticks of Siwak (natural toothbrush) of the brand ORINKO well received.the origins of the use of Siwak would go back to 7000 years! It is not yet the plastic toothbrushes that pollute ...100% natural, this toothbrush is perfect for a back-up brushing after lunch break, on an express trip or even as a daily toothbrush.I'm not a big fan of the taste of the bark around but when we are on the inner fiber part, it looks a bit like licorice stick.It is easy to cut and a stem holds quite a long time.Too bad to have made individual plastic bags for the sticks. We were almost at fault for the whole product.this is a product that I recommend and I hope will become more common over time.

To prevent the damage caused by limescale in tap water, both for your health and that of your appliances, which rely on it for their operation, these pearls are essential and their large number is very appreciable.

I made a first experiment of the use of these pearls in the drinking water and it is quite exact that one quickly notices that the odor of chlorine disappears very quickly, the second experiment was to put pearls in the water tank of my coffee machine to eliminate at most the deposit of limestone, the result is rather satisfactory.

So, to follow the instructions: I peeled with a peeler the skin to leave about 1cm of stick without bark. Then, I chewed it to soften the fibers: it has a little salty taste, not unpleasant but surprising (I expected maybe a licorice taste, like the licorice sticks to chew, lol).once the fibers are softened, you just have to rub your teeth from top to bottom for 5mn, and to rinse the stick with water once finished. It is necessary to rewet the stick before each brushing.so already, 5 minutes of brushing, it is long! Compared to the 2 minutes for a classic brushing or with an electric toothbrush... there is no saving of time, on the contrary.No need of toothpaste: better than for the classic brushing.Freshens the breath: it's true, but it also works with a classic toothpaste.Whitens the teeth: not sure, to be seen on the long term.Reusable: when the fibers are damaged, there is only to cut the damaged part, and to reproduce the operation of the beginning. But it still costs 25€! It's maybe a lot to spend at once (that said, if you buy an electric toothbrush, you can explode the budget!).Alternative to the toothbrush: there, I am less sure. Indeed, if it is easy to use it for the front teeth from top to bottom, it is much more difficult to make the back teeth, the back of the teeth, and the top.the classic toothbrushes have all the fibers on the side, and not at the end, which is not a chance.So, my opinion: it does not completely replace the toothbrush, but it is a good complement in alternation, or in breakdown service when one is in displacement, it is very well. In massage of the gums also, that can make them good. It can also amuse your kids (if they don't mind the taste), but you still have to teach them to brush the back of their teeth and the top.

Works great! I don't have to descale my espresso machine too often, just put the beads in the water tank of the coffee machine and the scale will be dissolved and absorbed by the beads

I use a kettle at work every day to heat my tea and other herbal teas, and another kettle at home for my evening tea.The water is rather hard and the deposits that inevitably get in the bottom of the kettle.Of course, I should also think about emptying the stagnant water every day! The bottom of my kettles had traces of limescale.At home I followed the procedure to prepare the beads and make them usable.I heated the water in the kettle, put all the beads in a small pot and immersed them in the boiling water for a good 10 minutes, then dried them on paper towels and they were ready to go! I put 15 of them in each kettle.Since they have been in place, not only is the limescale no longer deposited, but the last remaining residue in the bottom has disappeared, no more pieces of limescale getting stuck in the kettle's filter.I am really satisfied with this product.I hope that my comment will be useful in your decision?

I was a bit skeptical but it does the job, it's quite efficient although I'm still a fan of the electric toothbrush. I'm not ready to adopt it exclusively for brushing but it is true that it must be quite acceptable. An interesting alternative.

These ceramic beads are useful in many areas, including all machines that use water, such as coffee makers, kettles, teapots, etc. Of course, dishwashers and washing machines, although I have not tried them on the latter machine because I am afraid that the repeated shocks would cause the beads to crumble... But I use them in my two flush toilets.Tired of constantly seeing streaks of limescale under the rims of the toilet bowl that do not go away when the brush passes over them, streaks that become thick over time and that I have to break with a screwdriver to get rid of them, I placed these pearls in a small mesh bag at the bottom of the flush and then I cleaned the last traces of limescale accumulated under the rims.Since then, I haven't had any more reappearance of these limescale clusters and, at the same time, my toilet flushes better because it is not diverted by the misplaced limescale clusters. It's really efficient and precious in areas particularly invaded by this damn limescale.

It's new, it's green but I'm still very skeptical! It feels like a Koh Lanta moment when you rub your teeth with these little pieces of wood! Once the twig is a bit sharp, you have to chew it to separate the filaments. The taste is strange but not strong. The filaments rub well on the surface of the teeth and they stay smooth afterwards. I find that these Siwak sticks offer a nice alternative as a backup. At work, before a meeting, it's always useful to know that we don't have a food stuck without our knowledge. A quick brushing and that's it... My teeth have not whitened as advertised...

For a long time now, I have eliminated disposable plastic bottles from my daily life.In my region, the water is very hard, I used to use a carafe filter, but the design of the filters posed a problem: they are bulky, expensive, and above all... plastic + disposable!!! These ceramic beads allow a 100% ecological alternative to this practice.How many to put? How to use them? What is the principle? The pearls intervene directly on the structure of the water to make it purer. They are composed of a clay enriched with micro-organisms. The 80 strains they contain eliminate chlorine, limestone and most of the harmful residues contained in tap water. When first used, boil them for 10 minutes and dry them. Place the pearls at the bottom of the carafe for 10 minutes in the water before drinking it. Then, you can leave them permanently in a bottom of water by supplementing as you go along. The ideal is to have two carafes, one being activated with the pearls while you drink the other.Contrary to the charcoal filters of the carafes which store the residues, these pearls do not require any maintenance and their life expectancy is unlimited. These pearls thus make it possible to improve the taste and the quality of the tap water but in no case to make healthy a non-drinking water (of river for example).Compared to the solution of the carbon bamboos, I like the unlimited character in the time, thus more economic.The other uses of the ceramic pearls are numerous:- to filter naturally the water of the aquarium- to descale the small household appliances: kettle, coffeepot, water-heater... To maintain daily and avoid the deposit of scale in your kettle, coffee pot or water heater, keep continuously 12 ceramic beads inside - to preserve more durably the food as well as the bouquets of flowers - to clean the toilets - to decrease the cleaning products used in the washing machine and the dishwasher. For the dishwasher, I threaded the beads in a cotton string.well, after all that, I am convinced, hyper convinced even.

These ceramic pearls by a chemical action act and remove the limestone and chlorine from the water.nothing is visible but it works. If you have water that has a taste, these pearls are a solution.personally I put 10 pearls in a bottle that I use to wash my face, remove my makeup.I also put some in the teapot and the tea has a different taste, ditto for the coffee.It's impressive what chlorine or limestone can change without you realizing it.
