What’s Inside
- Dry Mouth Candies
- Soothing Mouth Rinse
- Lip Balm
The OC candies are great for saliva stimulation and to relieve dry mouth. These candies dissolve easily in the mouth and help retain moisture in the mouth, providing immediate relief from dryness. The ingredients are natural, gentle and non-irritating for individuals with sensitive oral tissues. They contain Xylitol that prevents dental decay which can be a concern with dry mouth since there is less saliva to protect teeth. Xylitol has no major effect on blood sugar which means it won’t lead to a sugar high or a sugar crash which makes it safe for diabetics.
Ingredients
All-natural xylitol, added natural flavors
Why it’s good for cancer patients
OC Xylitol candies are great for cancer patients with dry mouth which is a common side effect of treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. Xylitol stimulates saliva production, which moistens oral tissues, reduces the risk of infections, and protects tooth enamel. The lemon and sour cherry flavors are specially great for stimulating saliva and the ginger flavor helps with nausea and saliva stimulation.

The OC soothing non-alcohol mouth rinse effectively supports oral health while providing healing and relief from chemo mouth. It contains the right ratio of salt and soda that moisturizes and lubricates the mouth while protecting irritated or inflamed oral tissues caused by chemotherapy and radiation. The salt and soda combination has natural cleansing properties that help remove debris and bacteria from the oral cavity while reducing the risk of infection.
Ingredients
Sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate
Why it’s good for cancer patients
The OC mouth rinse helps draw out excess fluid from swollen tissues, reducing swelling and discomfort. Sodium bicarbonate neutralizes acids in the mouth, helping to maintain a balanced pH. This is crucial since chemotherapy can cause an acidic environment, leading to further irritation and discomfort. Chemotherapy can also cause a metallic or unpleasant taste in the mouth. Rinsing with a salt and soda solution can help neutralize these tastes, improving the overall sense of taste and making eating more pleasant.
