There are several reasons why people experience bad breath, but usually, bacteria in the mouth is the cause. This bacteria can become trapped in the cavities and gums of the mouth, so cleaning thoroughly each day will help you to reduce the risk of bad breath, gum disease, and the resurgence of bacteria.
Gastrointestinal problems may also be a cause of halitosis, since the internal organs may affect the bacteria buildup in the mouth. So, if you are brushing, flossing, and eating raw foods in order to cure your halitosis, you may want to talk to your doctor about the ways that gastrointestinal problems can cause bad breath, and how you can find a cure fast.
It may be best for you to find out exactly what internal disease(s) you may have before beginning treatment, so that your doctor can tell you how to treat the condition in addition to halitosis treatment. You should also know that each internal condition will have different symptoms, so even though it may be a bit awkward, you should pay attention to your breath’s odors in order to find out more about your condition.
For instance, a sugary or sweet smell in your mouth may be an indication of diabetes, and intestinal conditions (such as Crohn’s disease or Celiac sprue) may cause you to have a sour odor in your breath that is hard to eliminate.
When you’re trying to treat halitosis and gastrointestinal problems, it is important to make certain changes to your diet, so that your internal organs can renew themselves. Eating plenty of raw foods and drinking lots of water each day will help you to rid the body of wastes and impurities. You should also make sure that you are sticking to any medication regimens that are prescribed by your doctor in order to see improvement.
Bad Breath may also be caused by gum infection.
