Bad breath: some surprising causes

April 27, 2017 Uncategorized 0

Your breath is not fresh. You do not know. But the person in front of you suffers.
He backs up. You move forward. He turns away. You stand facing him. He looks embarrassed. You do not understand his attitude.

Do you eat too many sweets?


Their sugar allows the proliferation of certain bacteria in your mouth. This ends up forming a plaque of bacteria on your tongue, teeth and gums (including hard to reach places). These bacteria reject volatile sulfur compounds that smell very bad.
Dark chocolate, less rich in sugar, helps to circumvent this problem.

Having difficulties with dairy products?

Yogourt and milk do not smell bad (unlike some cheese). But they can still give you a fetid breath.
Here are some symptoms of intolerance to dairy products that should alert you:

  • Difficult digestion (stomach ache, bloating, gas)
  • Diarrhea – in extreme cases
Do you follow a diet high in protein?

During a low-carbohydrate diet (without pasta, bread and potatoes), your liver has no more glucose available. You will then force him to tap into your reserves of fat to produce energy.
This is called ketosis. As a result, your body will reject ketones (including acetone). Now these substances give a rotten fruit breath.

Are you anxious? Do not forget to drink water!


Stress is one of the common factors of bad breath. This is a big problem because almost everyone is under stress.
You will notice that anxious people tend not to drink enough. They have a dry, pasty mouth. It is the ideal environment for the proliferation of bacteria that will give you bad breath.
Be sure to drink water regularly

Your bad breath comes back once a month?

It is a little known symptom of menstruation. To fight bad breath during menstruation, drink water and green tea. You can also brush your tongue (with a toothbrush).

Check the label of your mouthwash.

Mouthwash contains alcohol that dries your mouth. Having a dry mouth promotes the growth of malodorous bacteria.
This is why it is better to choose a mouthwash without alcohol, or do not rinse at all.
