Medically known as halitosis, bad breath is an unpleasant odour emanating from the mouth, which is caused due to poor hygiene or health problems in the mouth, teeth, gums, throat or digestive system. The food we eat begins to break down in our mouths, and sulfuric compounds in food are responsible for the nasty smell. It is absorbed into your bloodstream and moves to the lungs, affecting the air you exhale. If you eat foods with strong odours (such as garlic or onions), it will result in a bad odour, and merely brushing and flossing or even mouthwash cannot cover up the odour completely. The odour will not vanish completely till the foods have passed through your body. Other common foods that cause bad breath include cheese, pastrami, certain spices, orange juice or soda, and alcohol. Some other daily foods that cause bad breath include milk, citrus fruits and canned tuna. So, these were some daily foods that cause bad breath. Now we shall discuss how to avoid foods that cause bad breath, and adopt a healthier lifestyle . You should eat plenty of vegetables and herbs, and avoid foods that contribute to bad breath like those high in sugar or with particularly potent flavour. Chewing sugar-free gum can also help treat bad breath, as it activates and helps saliva production in the mouth, and odour-causing bacteria have a harder time clumping together, and hence won’t cause bad breath as much. Avoid chewing gum with mints or sugar, as sugar is a main culprit of bacteria growth in the mouth. Aside from more serious oral health issues like gum disease, bone loss, and oral cancer, smoking or chewing tobacco causes bad breath, so, if you are a smoker, consider removing it from your life, as it will certainly improve the freshness of your breath. Infections create the perfect environment for odour-causing bacteria to thrive. See a dentist and follow their instructions carefully, if you have any oral disease. Hopefully you learnt something new today, and will resolve to avoid eating foods that cause bad breath.
