do you have any infections in your mouth, gum or tooth? could be a form of gum disease try a good strong mouth wash like Listerine if not go to your dentist could be a condition that needs to be treated.

Overlysho,
Bad breath is known as halitosis and has many possible causes. Most halitosis comes from something in the mouth. Food sticks between your teeth, around the gums and on your tongue. If you don’t brush and floss your teeth every day, this food can rot. The rotten bits of food cause a bad smell in your mouth. Rotten food also helps bacteria to grow in your mouth. This bacteria can cause gum disease, or gingivitis. Gingivitis also causes bad breath.The things you eat and drink affect your breath. Common examples of foods and beverages that may cause bad breath include onions, garlic, cheese, pastrami, certain spices, orange juice and soda. Once food is digested and its oils are absorbed into the bloodstream, they’re carried into the lungs. The odour is given off in your breath. Bad breath may also be a sign of a health problem. Chronic lung infections, liver or kidney diseases and diabetes are some conditions that may cause bad breath.

Get some bloodwork done . Diabetics are known to have this .
Or it could be little white pockets near your tonsils – they are full of bacteria that smell terrible when they come off.

In a way it comes from the throat, specifically from the top of the tongue where bacteria grow and produce the bad breath. Sometimes you can see this bacteria by looking on the top of your tongue, it is often white in color. This must be removed if you are to control bad breath. I use an OraBrush tongue cleaner which is great because it is both a brush and a scraper. I clean my tongue everytime I brush my teeth.
