WAYS TO CURE BAD BREATH

1) Brush your teeth: It sounds simple. But just brushing

your teeth more often will help reduce bad breath. Not only
will the toothpaste often mask odors, but more importantly
brushing will remove food particles that are a major cause of
bad breath. Carry a toothbrush to work and brush after lunch
or even coffee breaks. It will help. Your dentist will thank you
too.

2) Brush your tongue: It sits right in the middle of your mouth and your
breath passes right over it. A clean tongue helps keep your breath from picking
up any additional odors from small particles that might have lodged on its rough
surface. It's not hard, just one more step in the fight against bad breath. Besides,
you're already brushing your teeth regularly, so this won't really take any extra
time or effort.

3) Don't eat garlic: Garlic is one of those foods that tastes much better than it
smells. The thing to remember is that if you're going to be enjoying garlic at
lunch, everyone else is going to be sharing it that afternoon. Save your garlic for
when you're going out at night and everyone with you is going to be sharing it. It
just works better that way.

4) Avoid onions: They add flavor to everything they touch, but they can add
bad breath too. The thing to remember is that it's raw onions that make their
mark on the local atmosphere. Cooked onions are much less fragrant, especially
on your breath. So if you're an onion fan, go for the cooked ones if you can, and
don't load up with raw onions on that sub sandwich you had for lunch. Your co-
workers will thank you.

5) Watch out for cheese: Cheese is another thing that can add to the air
around you. Generally, the milder the cheese, the lighter the effect, so don't go
wild on those bleu cheeses with the mold cultures and expect your breath to smell
as sweet. If you're someone whose breath records every cheese they've eaten,
save them for when you get home. Then brush your teeth afterwards.

6) Use mouthwash: Mouthwash is one of the classic recommendations, and as

a temporary fix it can't be beat. It kills odor-causing bacteria and many of them
add a hint of mint. The only problem is that a lot of mouthwashes have alcohol,
which dries the mouth and can bring bad breath back just as quickly as it
removed it. So use it when you need it, but don't rely on it for the entire day.

7) Don't smoke: This is good advice generally, but

stopping smoking will definitely make your breath
better. No cigarettes, no ash breath. Not only does
the smoke itself give you bad breath, but it also adds
to dry mouth and that always makes your breath
worse. Smoking is just one of those things everyone
is better off avoiding.

8) Don't drink: Everyone who's ever smelled it knows exactly how bad beer
breath smells. Do yourself and your friends a favor and avoid alcohol if you want
to keep your breath fresh. Among other things, it evaporates a lot faster than
water does, so drinking leads to a dry mouth. The dryer your mouth, the worse
your breath.

9) Floss regularly: Bad breath often results from small particles of food
trapped between teeth. Flossing removes them and helps keep your breath that
much fresher. It also helps with oral health generally, which as a side-effect
reduces bad breath, and decreases your dental bills; all of which are worthy goals.
So don't forget to floss.

10) Chew gum: Chew gum, but make sure it's sugarless. Chewing gum can
help your breath in two ways. One is that nice minty flavor that masks a mixture
of coffee, garlic and cigarette smoke; the more important one is that it keeps your
saliva flowing. Saliva is a good thing because it stops your mouth from drying
out, which makes it that much less inviting for bad-breath-causing bacteria. The
sugarless part is to keep a smile on your dentist's face.

11) Breakfast, still the most important meal: Yes,

breakfast helps fight bad breath too. This meal can do
anything. The way it works is simple, and yes it does
require a healthy breakfast, not a cup of coffee and a
donut. If your breakfast contains plenty of roughage it
will help clean your tongue. It's particularly good for
cleaning the back of the tongue where you can't get a
toothbrush without gagging.

12) Keep your mouth clean: Another one that seems obvious once you think
about it. Fresh breath comes from a fresh mouth; it's that simple. So don't forget
things like brushing your teeth, flossing, and even simply rinsing your mouth
with fresh water. They all help. The less there is in your mouth to produce odors,
the better your breath will be.

13) Rinse with hydrogen peroxide: This first step's important; even though
it's already diluted when you buy it, dilute it again. Mix it half and half with
water, then rinse your mouth and spit it out. It will kill bacteria, and doesn't have
as much of a drying effect as alcohol. Just be careful not to swallow it.

14) Essential oils remove the essence of bad breath: Put a dab of
essential oils on your toothbrush and use that to brush with. The oils will help
counteract some of the bacteria in your mouth and keep them from producing
bad breath. It works very well if you're brushing your teeth with baking soda.

15) Drink Water: This should go without saying. Most people should be
drinking more water than they do, and a lot less of other beverages. A lot of bad
breath, especially the dreaded "morning breath" is either caused or amplified by a
dry mouth. If you drink lots of water you can keep hydrated, and if you're
hydrated it's easier to produce saliva and keep your mouth from drying out. That
will help keep bad breath down.

16) Breathe through your nose: Nobody likes being called a mouth-
breather, but breathing through your nose really does help keep bad breath away.

60 Ways to Cure Bad Breath

You lose moisture when you exhale, that's why your breath fogs when it's cold. If
you're breathing from your nose this comes from your nasal passages and up
from the lungs. If you breathe through your mouth, some of that moisture
comes from your saliva. This dries out your mouth with predictable results. Bad
breath.

17) Go to the dentist: See your dentist regularly, and not

just to get your teeth cleaned. Tooth decay is a major cause
of bad breath. It's just like having food caught in your
teeth: If something's decaying it normally smells bad, and
if it's decaying in your mouth that translates to bad breath.
That applies to both food particles and teeth. So check
with your dentist if you have bad breath.

18) Lozenges: Suck on some of those sugar-free lozenges they sell in the little
tins. It doesn't matter so much what flavor you get, though mint or cinnamon
may help mask any odors. What helps the most is the increased saliva
production that comes from having something in your mouth. Keeping your
mouth from getting dry is one of the most important ways to fight dry mouth.

19) Avoid caffeinated drinks: Caffeine is a diuretic, so if you drink too much
caffeine you'll get dehydrated, which will increase the likelihood of bad breath.
So if you do drink coffee, tea or other such beverages, have a glass of water at the
same time. Also, be aware that adding sugar often masks the dehydrating effect
such drinks have on your mouth. You still get the dry mouth; you just don't feel
it as soon.

20) Alcohol has a drying effect: Anything you put in your mouth that
contains alcohol can foster bad breath. This includes cough syrups, mouthwash,
or even alcoholic drinks. This is because alcohol dries out the tissues in your
mouth, making it easier for bad breath to form. So be aware that just because
you don't drink beer, that doesn't mean alcohol can't give you bad breath.

21) Baking Soda: Baking soda's not just for the refrigerator any more. It's
been used for brushing teeth for ages, and one of its biggest advantages is the
effect it has on your breath. Baking soda absorbs odors, and that doesn't change
when you put it on your toothbrush. Use baking soda to brush, don't forget the
tongue, and you'll notice a marked decrease in bad breath.

22) Blow your nose: Not all bad breath comes from the mouth. Yes you can
get bad breath from your nose. The usual culprits are either a sinus infection, or
(and this happens more often with small children than adults) something stuck in
the nose. So if your child has bad breath coming from their nose, first have them
try to blow it normally. If that doesn't work you should take them to the doctor to
have a look.

23) Use a toothpick: Anything that remains in the mouth long enough can
contribute to bad breath. Sometimes you get something stuck in your mouth that
brushing and flossing just don't seem to be able to get rid of. Try a toothpick,
sometimes its rigid shape is what you need. Once you get everything that
doesn't belong out of your mouth your breath will probably smell a lot better.

24) Clean your dentures every night: Dentures are like teeth in more ways
than one; they not only help you eat, but they can cause bad breath if you don't
take care of them. You need to clean them regularly, every night is best, and be
sure to use an anti-bacterial cleanser. That will stop bacteria from building up
and giving you bad breath.

25) Brush that retainer: Millions of people wear braces at one time in their
life. Many of them need a retainer too. If you're a member of this group, or your
child is, don't forget to clean that retainer. They can easily build up quite a
deposit of plaque, and the best way to remove it is brushing. It also contributes
to bad breath even when the retainer isn't worn because it leaves a fresh deposit
in the mouth every time it's worn. So take a toothbrush and get that stuff off.
Soaking isn't enough.

26) Fill your cavities: We all know that cavities are holes in your teeth caused
by tooth decay. If you have cavities, run don't walk to the dentist and set yourself
up to get fillings. Not only do they add to bad breath all by themselves, but
cavities also provide a perfect place for those pesky food particles that bad-
breath-causing bacteria feed on to lodge in your mouth. Fillings help.

27) Stop gingivitis: Gingivitis is a gum disease that helps make your mouth a
breeding ground for bacteria. Since it's already a breathing ground; that means
the extra bacteria can lead to bad breath. Even when gingivitis bacteria
themselves don't contribute to bad breath they make the mouth that much more
attractive to the bacteria that do. It has a host of other negative effects, so do
yourself a favor and deal with it as quickly as you can.

28) Cabbage: Cabbage, the source of cabbage rolls and

sauerkraut, is also a source of bad breath. The culprit is sulfur.
Cabbage is rich in sulfur compounds, and most of what we smell in
the way of bad breath is made up of volatile sulfur compounds
given off by the bacteria which feed on leftover food particles in the
mouth. So cut down on cabbage and you'll cut down on bad breath.

29) Go to the doctor: Your oral health isn't the only kind that can affect your
breath. There are a number of medical conditions which also manifest
themselves as a source of bad breath. If you have bad breath that's not
responding to any other treatments, do yourself a favor and go to the doctor.
Have yourself checked out for any diseases which might cause it. This isn't
common, but the danger makes it worth taking a look.

30) Don't sleep in your dentures: You're getting used to your dentures so
you wear them all the time. Or maybe you keep forgetting where you put them
and don't want to spend the time looking for them in the morning when you're
rushing to get out the door. Whatever the reason, you sleep wearing dentures.
Don't. The mouth dries out when you sleep and the dentures are a perfect
breeding ground for bacteria. Take them out every night and find a good place to
put them.

31) Control your stress: Stress, we all have to deal with it, some of us more
than others. When we get stressed, our body goes into fight or flight mode, and
one of the things this shuts down is the digestive system. It makes sense; don't
worry about digesting your last meal until you're sure you won't be somebody
else's. Unfortunately, saliva production is one of the things that shuts down,
leading to a dryer mouth and worse breath. So if you find yourself in a high-
stress situation, keep a glass of water handy and sip from it regularly. Your
breath will thank you.

32) Don't forget to eat: If you're really hungry, your breath gets worse. What
happens is when you get hungry your body starts to metabolize fat to make up for
the food it's not getting. The problem comes from the fact that when your body
starts to break down those fats it releases ketones, which have a very unpleasant
odor. If you're in this boat, try a glass of fruit juice; it's usually the quickest way
to get your body to stop running on its internal reserves.

33) Parsley: Not everyone puts parsley on a plate because

they like the color. Not everyone even likes that shade of
green. However, parsley's high in chlorophyll which has a
deodorizing effect. That's why some brands of chewing gum
advertise having chlorophyll. So next time they give you some
parsley on your pasta, eat it. It will help counteract the garlic.

34) Invest in a tongue cleaner: Since so much bacteria resides on the

tongue, it's a good idea to invest in a specialty tongue cleaner or tongue scraper.
Yes, brushing your tongue helps, but a toothbrush is engineered to clean teeth,
not your tongue, and the two are very different. Teeth are hard and smooth,
where the tongue is soft and irregular. Get a specialty tongue cleaner and clear
out more of those odor-causing bacteria.

35) Tea tree oil: Brush your teeth with tea tree oil. It's a natural antiseptic and
will cut down on the bacteria in your mouth. Reduce the bacteria and you reduce
the bad breath. It's that simple. All you need is a few drops directly on the
toothbrush because it's very strong. Or, if you don't want to spend the time for
that extra brushing just add it to your regular toothpaste.

36) Stop post-nasal drip: It's a nasty feeling when something drops from
your sinuses onto the back of your tongue. Needless to say, once that stuff lands
on your tongue it's in prime bad breath territory. The good thing is once you cure

Page 9 of 15

60 Ways to Cure Bad Breath

that post-nasal drip it will go away with no further effort on your part. But be
aware of the effect it can have and when you are suffering from post-nasal drip
take extra precautions against bad breath.

37) Chew cloves and fennel seeds: A number of spices have anti-microbial
and anti-bacterial properties, which shouldn't surprise anyone who remembers
how they were used to preserve food in the Middle Ages. So one way to fight bad
breath is to chew on cloves or fennel seeds, they'll mix with your saliva to help kill
the bacteria that your saliva rinses away.

38) Regularity, it's important: Constipation can be another hidden cause of

bad breath. When you're constipated, waste products build up in your system,
and some of those waste products can lead to bad breath. It's not a pleasant
subject, but if you're constipated and have bad breath you may find that clearing
up one problem helps with the other.

39) Prescription drugs and dry mouth: Next time you get a prescription,
take a look at the label. Many prescription drugs include dry mouth as one of
their side-effects. If this is the case you're going to want to drink more water, or
at least rinse your mouth out regularly while you're on this medication. Doing
that will help fight the dry mouth, make you more comfortable and cut down on
the bad breath.

40) Rub your tongue with a stainless steel spoon: I know it

sounds funny, but there's sound scientific reasoning behind this one,
which works primarily on odors like garlic. The thing to remember is
that stainless steel is a catalyst, which accelerates the breakdown of
many sulfur products. The only catch is that different spoons use
slightly different formulations of stainless steel so they won't all work
equally well.

41) Control your diabetes: Diabetes can often lead to bad breath, so if you're
diabetic pay attention to your breath after you've taken care of your blood sugar.
If you can control the diabetes with diet it will often take care of the bad breath as
well. Otherwise you'll just have to be aware of the potential for bad breath and
work to reduce it.

42) Eat your carbs: Carbohydrate reduced diets may be great for weight loss,
but they aren't great for your breath. What happens is that these diets trick the
body into thinking that it's not getting enough food so it turns to ketosis to break
down its stores of body fat. This releases ketones, which turn into bad breath.
So if you cut out carbs, be prepared to add something to fight the resulting bad
breath.

43) Are you lactose intolerant? If you are, any dairy products can lead to a
case of bad breath. The way to check is simple enough; cut out all dairy for a
week or so and see what happens. If your bad breath goes away you know the

Page 10 of 15
Copyright  2007. All Rights Reserved.
60 Ways to Cure Bad Breath

cause and can start looking around for lactose alternatives. Lactose intolerance is
fairly common in adults and tends to become more common as one gets older. It
affects a large minority of whites, and a majority of non-whites, so do check it
out.

44) Xylitol: If you're given a choice, pick foods sweetened with xylitol over
other artificial sweeteners. This substitute kills bacteria and enhances saliva
production, giving you two benefits for the price of one. Since it's often used in
gum, there's a real synergy between the act of chewing increasing your salivation
in addition to the xylitol.

45) Cinnamon gum: Gum is one of the arch-enemies of bad breath, though we
do recommend sugarless gum just as the dentist does. If you're given a choice,
cinnamon gum seems to be the best for reducing bacteria in the mouth. There's
something in the flavoring used in most cinnamon flavored gum that reduces
bacteria, which means it's fighting bad breath on two fronts. Not only by
increasing saliva flow but also by killing the bacteria which cause bad breath.

46) Close your mouth: Bad breath comes from a dry mouth,
keeping your mouth open speeds evaporation and provides a
better breeding ground for bacteria. So if you're someone who
habitually leaves your mouth open even a little bit, try to keep it
closed. It will help. It's a good habit to keep in other ways too,
but sometimes it's the things we never think about that can
make the biggest differences.

47) Get a water pick: Brushing helps, flossing helps, but there are some spots
that they just can't seem to get at. That's where you need a water pick; one of
those devices that directs a high-pressure spray into your mouth to wash away
the food particles that collect in hard to reach places. It will remove the food
sources the bad breath causing bacteria need to survive. Add this to your daily
oral hygiene routine and any bad breath problems will start to decrease again.

48) Look for an alcohol-free mouthwash: Most mouthwashes contain

alcohol, so no sooner do they wash the bacteria away than they set up a perfect
breeding spot for the next round, and bacteria reproduce very quickly. This is
where an alcohol-free mouthwash that relies on an oxidizer comes in. It will clear
away the bacteria without causing the dry mouth that makes it that much more
welcoming for the next batch.

49) Brush your dentures: Plaque buildup leads to bad breath. It gives the
bacteria somewhere to hide away from the oxygen that will kill them. Dentures
develop plaque too, so it's important to brush them. Simply soaking in an anti-
bacterial solution isn't enough. It cleans the surface, but does little or nothing to
remove plaque. So the best option is to combine brushing with an anti-bacterial
rinse to first clear everything off the dentures, then kill bacteria that may have
been hiding underneath.

50) Myrrh is for the wise: Myrrh is a natural antiseptic, and can work
wonders in a mouthwash. Most people hate the taste, but it's hard to fault its
efficacy. You don't need a lot, and you don't have to swallow it either. Just take
the myrrh and mix it with a little water, swish it around and you will find your
breath is getting better.

51) Use sage tea: Sage is one of nature's many antibacterials and a good way to
keep your breath fresh. All you do is make a glass of warm sage tea, swirl it
around in your mouth, gargle, then spit it out. It has the advantage of helping to
heal mouth sores as well as fighting bad breath so it's a great option.

52) Try some cardamom seeds: Cardamom is rich in the antiseptic cineole,
which is known to kill odor-causing bacteria. All you need to do is chew the seeds
for a little while then spit them out. Like many herbal options, it has a secondary
benefit with nothing to do with your breath. According to reports, it's considered
an aphrodisiac by many Arab cultures. We all know that bad breath is the
opposite of an aphrodisiac, so this is worth a try.

53) Eat your vegetables: Vegetables are good for you, we all
know that. What we don't all know is how they fight bad breath.
It's the roughage that does it. Vegetables like carrots and celery,
especially when raw, work to scrape the plaque off your teeth and
expose the bacteria beneath to the air. It works really well as part
of a whole-body plan to reduce bad breath and improve overall
health.

54) Eat sugar-free yogurt: The advantage to this method is that it uses
bacteria to fight bacteria. The bacterial cultures in the yogurt actually work to
counteract the bacteria that cause bad breath. By reducing the amount of
bacteria, it reduces the sulfur compounds and thus the bad breath. Another
benefit is that it also reduces both plaque and gingivitis, helping to reduce bad
breath and increase general oral health.

55) Linus Pauling was right, take Vitamin C: Okay, maybe he wasn't right
on everything, but taking vitamin C can definitely be helpful in reducing bad
breath. Take several doses over the course of a day and it will help flush out
mucus and toxins, giving the bacteria nothing to feed on and nowhere to flourish.
Fewer bacteria means better breath.

56) B is for breath: Take your vitamins, especially your vitamin B. Lowered B
levels can lead to bad breath, especially B6 which is not found in large amounts in
most foods. A vitamin supplement can help correct this, which will improve your
breath. Again, the healthier you are, the sweeter your breath, so don't forget
looking at health causes such as vitamin deficiencies if you have bad breath.

57) Try a salt water gargle: Gargling helps remove those food particles that
the bacteria feed on, and the salt makes things that much less hospitable for
them. This is one of the easiest options; everyone should have water and salt
available. It cleans away everything from bacteria, to mucus to the
aforementioned food particles. It's a good general habit.

58) Salt and Lemon: Sprinkle salt on a slice of lemon then give
it a good suck. It's not just good for tequila. It will also help
reduce bad breath caused by onions and garlic. It's a good option
if you're eating out, as most restaurants have both slices of lemon
and salt readily available. Take advantage of this one the next
time you go to an Italian restaurant.

59) Eat your pineapple: Pineapple, along with papaya and kiwifruit are rich
in digestive enzymes. You can take advantage of this fact to help your digestion,
which will also reduce the chance of bad breath. Incompletely digested foods
release gas from your intestines, and when this works its way out you get bad
breath. Adding digestive enzymes can help prevent this.

60) Anise tea: Take a few teaspoons of anise seeds, and boil them in water for a
few minutes to make a licorice flavored tea. Strain the seeds out and then either
drink the tea or use it as a mouthwash. Whichever way you choose you'll find its
natural anti-microbial properties will help cleanse your mouth and clean your
breath. If you like it, drink it; if you don't just use it as a mouthwash and gargle.

There you have it, just a few simple steps to deal with the two major causes of bad
