In the first article we have know how to get rid of bad breath by keeping oral hygiene. Here is the second article.

Food

There are certain types of foods that you simply eat to be a culprit to halitosis bad breath. Food that’s high in fat, meats, foods full of sugar, specialty spices as well as dairy products. Foods that contain acid create microbes in your mouth.

When you eat foods with a lot of fat and protein, they may not digest in your system properly.  People that have difficulty digesting meat and dairy products can end up with bad breath.
Here are some suggestions regarding foods when it comes to bad breath:

•    Make sure to include fruits and vegetables that are rich with antioxidants.  This would include leafy greens, berries, broccoli and cabbage.  These foods help to keep you healthy and to keep bad breath from occurring.

•    You can also eat yogurt that is sugar-free and has a live culture.  This helps to keep away bacteria that are responsible for causing halitosis.

•    Foods that are loaded with sugar pose a problem because the sugar affects the back of the throat.

•    In addition to onions and garlic, spices such as curry can cause people to have bad breath.  As you digest them, some of the elements flow through your bloodstream and to the lungs.  The odor can be emitted for about 24 hours.

•    Coffee and some teas can also be culprits of bad breath.  Both have plenty of acid in them.  Try not to drink so much of these beverages.

Drinking black tea has elements that keep bacteria away.  Other teas that can help to prevent bad breath are green tea and peppermint tea.  Tea can also get rid of bad breath that is caused by mucus.  You only have to drink one cup per day for the odor to gradually dissipate.

Vitamins and Supplements

•    If you’re not consuming enough zinc, then you could possibly have bad breath.  If you are deficient, you need to take no less than 60 mg a day.  Be careful about taking too much of this as zinc can interfere with copper.

•    The lack of Vitamin B can also be a cause of bad breath.  You may want to take some niacinimide, a B complex tablet and Vitamin B6 one time a day.

•    If you consume no more than 6,000 mg of Vitamin C, you will remove the mucus and toxins that have built up in your body.  The mucus and toxins that are stored up in your body can be a cause of bad breath.

  9. This is great tips but for me smoking are having largest impact on bad breath.

  10. Interestingly enough, it is a myth that coffee itself causes bad breath because it actually has to do with a lack of saliva in the mouth since coffee will dehydrate your tongue. If you drink water, it will prevent bad breath when drinking coffee, and you can also scrape your tongue with a scraper or spoon to keep your breath fresh. :-)

  15. A regular dental check would help too, since if you have a tooth decay this would be the culprit for your bad breath. A daily brush after meals with floss seems to work fine with me; and to keep the morning bad breath away, I use a mouth wash before sleeping (Orocare) ang gargle for about 5 minutes each night.

  16. Proper nutrition and daily physical exercise is the best way to prevent the occurrence of obesity and accompanying metabolic disorders. Thx for this post!

  22. Bad breath is one of the most embarrassing things that we have to be neurotic about. Clean your mouth thoroughly and regularly is one of the best ways to get rid of it. Two major sources of mouth odor are bacteria and decaying food particles. Keep your mouth moisturized will also help. After each meal, floss and brush to remove the food stuck in between your teeth. Use a tongue scraper to scrape your tongue daily. Or brush it when you brush your teeth. Probably just the basic fact but it will definitely help a lot.

  23. Bad breath is a real turn-off.. I think tooth decay is one of the reasons for it.. Anyways, I really like your Practical advice..

  24. A really good tip for curing bad breath is to chew cinnamon flavored gum or add cinnamon to your diet.

    Cinnamon oil extract is a natural anti-Microbial which combats the bacteria on your tongue. It works and tastes great too!

  25. Bad breath is big problem as i have suffering from stomach problems. Do you think Vitamins and Supplements are same for every age group… waiting for your next post… thanks – jessica

  26. Thanks a lot for your post! This is really beneficial on my part. I would love to try these tips you’ve mention if this would really work for me!

  27. Dry mouth may cause halitosis as well. Dead cells sustains on your tongue, if you have no saliva. Usually it happens during sleep (especially if you sleep with open mouth), that’s what causes “morning breath”. Smoking and some medications could also cause dry mouth.

  28. health says:

    Your consideration is good to apply. Thanks very much

  29. Those were very good information. I also heard that chewing of parsley after a meal can also help eliminate bad odor. Good oral hygiene plus proper nutrition is a good way of maintaining fresh breath.

  30. How often have you seen dogs chasing cats? By seeing this one question will be definitely sprouting on your mind as why these wonderful creatures hate each other. There is an intense rivalry between the cats and dogs. They are always seen as animals that hate each other. Actually this is true when the cats see the dogs around they become wild and want to attack them. On the other hand, dogs also rebuke them and bark wildly when they happen to see the cats around.

  31. Another issue could also be because of a tooth that is infected or bleeding such as a wisdom tooth that is ready to come out. Its important that this gets taken care of as soon as possible because it may cause major problems for the person. Thanks

  32. Brush your teeth and rinse your mouth thoroughly after every meal to remove food particle from the mouth.

    When you are brushing your teeth, also brush your tongue. The tongue is covered with thousands of tiny hairs that can trap bacteria.

    Have regular check-ups with your dentist to rule out gum disease and to correct any faulty restorations, overhanging fillings or leaking crowns, all of which can trap food in the mouth.

    Chew sugarless gum or suck on sugarless lozenges to increase the flow of saliva.

    If your mouth is dry, drink plenty of water.

    Try swooshing it around in your mouth for at least twenty seconds to loosen any food particles the bacteria can feed upon.

    Avoid breath mints and mouthwashes that contain alcohol. Instead of helping, they can make things worse. They only temporarily cover the smell and tend to dry the mouth, creating a more favorable environment for bacteria.

    Snacking on vegetables such as raw celery or carrots can keep plaque from forming.

    If you are going to an important meeting or on a big date, avoid foods that can cause bad breath, such as onions and garlic.

    Avoid alcohol and caffeine consumption, which can dry the mouth.

  33. I usually go on a medium intensity run for 60 minutes a day, four to five days a week. In addition, I do a total of at least 150 push ups and sit ups in each work out. I don’t consume more than 1500-1600 calories a day. very good post.

  34. Improving my diet helped a lot with my dental health. Cutting back on coffee and tea isn’t just good for your breath, it also makes a real difference in the color of your teeth. Brushing properly and regularly and flossing as well are also essential. I agree with Osanda about the importance of drinking water, there are so many health benefits to it!
