Conventional remedies for halitosis include:

* Brush and floss your teeth at least twice a day. Make sure to also brush the gums, the tongue, roof of the mouth, and inside of the cheeks.

* After you eat, make sure to rinse out left over food particles in your mouth.

* Avoid strong smelling items such as coffee, alcohol or smoking.

Other than these common remedies, natural remedies such as a well balanced diet also helps, as a healthy digestive system reduces the level of odor-causing bacteria in your body:

* Gum disease causes bad breath. Taking vitamin C helps protect and heal your gums from damage and disease. Vitamin C is plentiful in strawberry, cabbage, orange, red pepper and kiwi fruit.

* Eating food rich in acidophilus such as yogurt helps to balance the bacteria in the intestine to a healthy level and thus reduce halitosis.

* Eating food that fights plague build-up also helps fight foul breath, such as cheese, peanut, celery and carrot.

* Eating less meat and more fiber such as vegetables and fruits help temporarily mask bad breath. Snack on fresh raw vegetables and fruits such as parsley, celery, carrot apple and pear. Parsley is effective because it contains chlorophyll, a chemical found in plants that is considered to be a natural breath freshener.

* Eat food rich in fiber to fight constipation. Your body absorbs a large amount of bacteria from a meat-laden diet. Fiber helps promote regular bowel movements that remove these toxins from your body that cause bad smelling breath. Food rich in fiber include pea, dried bean, brown rice, prune, fig, and wheat product.

* Drink a lot of liquids, at least eight cups of water each day, to keep your mouth hydrated, as saliva is a natural antibacterial and helps flush down food particles in your mouth.

Thus, maintaining a balanced diet is an effective way to ensure good bodily health, helps eliminate bad breath and keeps your breath smelling sweet.

Both my mother and her father have really bad breath. It’s unbarable to talk to them upclose. They can’t seem to rid of it. Now, I’m scarred I’ll get it but I’m not sure if it’s hereditary or some sort of disease? I floss and brush 3-4 times daily but can I still get it? Is there some kind of cure?

Did you notice any white coating on your tongue? The white coating found on the tongue are actually formed by countless of unusual microbes known as biofilm. There are usually many accumulated bacteria found on the tongue which will cause bad breath.

Proper oral care and tongue brushing can help to minimize the problem. You can either use a tongue cleaner or toothbrush to eliminate the white coating on the tongue. This can help to lessen the bad breath. We have to do these steps repeatedly daily because the biofilm cannot be eliminated forever and will reestablish itself again after a while.

The white coating on the tongue can also be caused by dry mouth. If you are not drinking enough water, it is quite likely that the food particles left on your mouth will stick onto the tongue. Water will help to flush away the food particles and will minimize the chance of food particles sticking onto the tongue. Avoid drinking milk based products such as coffee, milk tea or even soy milk which can also be the contributing factors to the white coating. Beside brushing your teeth 2 - 3 times a day, you should also floss and clean your tongue. Visit the dentist every 6 months.
