What's a woman to do?

DiariesHello, I am a 29 year old woman who has been suffering from bad breath since middle school. It has always been an issue but just lately it is really starting to take a turn for the worst. I cry about this all the time. I pray about it. I ask God why me? Of all the things to happen to a person someone might say, hey bad breath is not so bad, at least you have sight, at least you can hear. Yes, this is all true but this is just almost as bad as those things. My quality of life will never be great. I will suffer from this forever. I don't understand how I will ever find a man to marry me. Its funny because Ive always had a boyfriend. I'm not bragging but I am a fairly attractive, funny woman. But I feel myself settling for less because I feel thats all I deserve. I let men run all over me because somehow I feel like theyre doing me a favor by even being with me and dealing with my problem. I pray for all of us because no one truly knows how this feels. Im around people all the time and I never smell anyone's breath. I think how lucky you are! I see them laughing and talking in each others faces and Im so envious. Why me? I wish I could take all our pain away. I am so thankful I found this group because I was beginning to think I was the only one out there with this problem. I chew gum ALL day. My teeth will be gone by the time Im 40. I've been to a bad breath clinic. What a waste of $400 and time. All he kept saying was I smell a mild odor. Then I went in to see his nurse and she said she didn't smell anything. I said are you saying that because you don't want to hurt my feelings? She replied no, I have smelled much worse. Bull! I say. My niece and nephew tell me all the time how bad my breath is. When my ex used to get mad at me he would say the nasiest things about it. Then later he would say I was just playing I really dont smell anything. I am so confused. So until I find a cure that is 100% and I will continue to live in shame and embarrassment. God, help us all.

I CURED MY BB.. Please Read..no advertising, this is real

DiariesHello. First of all, I want to tell everybody here that I completely understand what you all are going through. I finally cured my BB and have promised myself to tell others my story in hopes of helping. I suffered from BB since I was 16 yrs old. I always went to the dentists, they said everything was healthy. THroughout the years, I have visited Neurologists, GI doctors, Allergy doctors, ENT doctors, and nobody helped me. They once gave me Flagyl which totally helped and for 2 weeks I was the happiest person alive. Then , the BB returned and I was even more devastated. I was told I have soo many different things and when I did everything nothing helped. Then one day, after 14 yrs of having this plague, I noticed a TINY hole in my gums. Very small and in the back of my throat.. I paid no mind to it, and just learned to live with it. Then , I started realizing that I felt like that hole was full of tiny particles, so I went to the dentist who always told me I have a healthy mouth. I told him and he said " you dont have a hole in your gums, youre just imagining the feeling" . I KNEW I WAS NOT CRAZY! I demanded he take a closer look, and then he checked the xrays and said, OH MAYBE this little one???? I was like YESSSS what is it? He said ' Oh that is a gap that forms when your wisdom teeth have grown in, so food gets stuck in this little gap since the tooth brush cant brush back there... THEN since food is stuck there for God knows how long, it forms a cavity in that wisdom tooth..and since it isnt treated, that tooth starts to rotten." I was like WHAT????? how long have I had these teeth. He said they usually grow in around 16 or 17 years of age!!! IT ALL CLICKED!!!! I asked him why he never mentioned my wisdom tooth might be a problem. He said well many people have their wisdom teeeth bc it doesnt bother them, and many people take them out once they start to hurt or something. So i demanded I have them removed. He said since it is not an emergency, I will have to wait about 2 months for the next appt. I went crazy and spoke to everybody at the office, I was so upset and well, point is, they told me to come in the next day for a checkup with the ORAL SURGEON! So, i went it 8AM the next day, and guess what>? They removed my teeth within an hour! It was the most horrible pain I ever experienced, but hey I was convinced this would fix my problem. After the surgery, my BB was EVEN WORSE THAN EVER!! the doctor said I had a SEVERE infection due to so many years of having this cavity in the tooth, and eventually letting it rot! I was afraid bc that BB was still present. I went back 2 weeks to take out my stitches, and guess what>???? My BB WAS GONE!!!! He said the infection was no longer present, and I had the healthiest gums he had ever seen! ( Well, after brushing almost 10 times a day bc of the horrible BB I had for 14 years, I would hope so)! And now, 3 weeks after surgery, my mouth feels so clean and refreshed and I couldnt be happier. SO, for some of you, try and see if you have your wisdom teeth. Many older people still do, and for some it might be a problem and for others not so much. And these wisdom teeth usually come out between 16 or 18 yrs old or even around 21yrs. But since mine were partially erupted, is what the problem started. people, go to your dentist and ask if you still have your wisdom teeth. Some people never grow theirs, so just check. and if you do, then THAT MIGHT BE YOUR PROBLEM!!!!!!! DEMAND TO KNOW AND IF YOU HAVE THEM< THEN REMOVE THEM! I promise you, it will change your life. It changed mine! I am happier than I have ever been, and even planning my 30th Birthday Party with all my friends, which I had not done in YEARS bc of my horrible BB, I had to stay away from everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you GOD, and I hope my story can help others. Take care and GOOD LUCK!

Flagyl

DiariesI was hospitalized for diverticulitis back in May. While there, I was given the drug flagyl. Two days later, and after 25 years of breath issues, my mouth was free of bad breath. I also stopped drinking milk, which I drank almost a half gallon daily. Not sure which one of these is the reason for my breath to be ridden of the bad odor, but after reading other stories, I am convinced it was the flagyl. Two months later, after the initial flagyl dose, I had to go back on it for a flair up of the diverticulitis. And then again a month later after I had surgeory and had to take flagyl again. So far, I have had no breath issues since taking flagyl the first time. I am hoping this is a permanent solution.

Raw food Vs. Bad breath

Jimi's DiaryAre we really so stupid, I guess we dont suffer enough, many people are really sick and they just jump into raw food because of physical pain. It is their last resort. I feel our last resort is raw food. Nothing else helps especially for us who have chronic bb!!
I have tried raw twice, mb bb almost disappeared the first time when I was 100 % raw, but I gave up, second time I was like 80 % raw and my bb was diminishing a lot but not as when I was 100 % raw.
I don’t have any other possibilities. Do you think that a dirty Rosey Monkey will make a cure for us, his mouthwas makes my teeth brown!!!!!
It is garbage and it works only for few days. Reducing my bb 10 or 20 % if!!
With raw you can get 100 % cured in 1 year, that is my prediction, it will suck out the illness that is BB. But it is not easy!! It is *censored*ing hard, the hardest task you even might do. But you have to be strong. I am researching the problem that I had with teeth on raw food, that become very sensitive so I gave up because of teeth. Yes that is why I gave up.
But I will consume more leafy green smoothies tu build up enamels, that I did not do first time, I only drink juices and citric fruit most of the time.
I need to do it! It is time. My life is getting pass me, many people are 100 % raw!!! And of they can do it, I can do it too!!!!
But I need to research more. Being raw is so simple, you need a blender, a knife and that is it!!!!!
You don’t need anything else. It is so simple!!!!!
And getting tid of BB is the reward!!!!!
I NEED TO DO IT. People hate me so much because of bb, the call cops on me, my mother wanted to poison me, and I do nothing wrong, my parents act as Hitler and Mussolini because of my BB.
I need to show them what will they miss, they will want me back, they will beg me on my knees to take them back to me life, but *censored* it, no way, they missed their change.
We need to become raw, just think what can a life without bb be!!!!!!!!!!!!
JUST THINK!!!!! Nothing can stop us then!!!!! We will not have problems anymore, we will be relaxed, what else is there!!!!!!Pure bliss!!!! RAW is the only food that was made for man, do you see monkeys cook food, yes probably one – Rosie the Monkey is cooking food, but apart from him no animals are cooking food and they are pretty healthy.
Just my thought, I am sick of this disease, I almost reached the bliss once, almost!!!!!
Now it is time to conquer the disease and live freely without having to suffer.

true cure after 17 years

My StoryI have suffered with bad breath for 17 years. buying products is not a cure. a true cure i consider to be when you have good normal breath without buying anything. I stopped having dairy for a month and its cured!!!!!!!!!!!! In south africa you can buy a lactase pill that allows you to eat it and then eat dairy as it gives you a digestive enzyme temporarily so sometimes i can still enjoy a dairy treat if i chew this pill. No dairy is the cure!!!!!!! fresh breath every day!!! I am in heaven!!!!! be aware that there is lactose in lots of products so read labels carefully. thanks to this website for the idea that led to my cure.

Tonsils Out

ResearchThanks for this great site! I have been dealing with bad breath for two years.

I get persistent tonsil stones and they have ruined my life. They give me bad breath

Doctors always just give me antibiotics and shrug and say just gargle with salt water 6 times a day- wtf? who can do this?

I want them out and I know tonsils out will mean a cure for me. Does anyone know a doctor in Los Angeles who will take tonsils out because of tonsil stones and holes in tonsils? I dont care if i spend 5k it is worth it. any info would be apprecaited- thanks!

Raw Diet

Research

I just want to post here some info about raw food. I was on it twice, I almost got rid of bb after 6 months. I think only like 5 % of bb remained and that would be gone after a while, but I stopped because I had problems with teeth, and my enamel was chipping of because of acids in oranges, lemons and other citrus fruit.

People started to talk to me again, friends invited me to more than just a few hours meeting...
It was not gone, i can't say i was totally cured but raw food was the only thing that really helpd me.

It is not easy to stick with it, no way, you could get in real problems with wanting cooked food that is delicious.
But if you are sick and on the verge with living with bb try it.

So many people got cured. I believe it would cure me, but I was not suffering enough. BB was not killing me enough so I gave up. But if you are desperate try it. It might save you.

STUDY AND MAKE YOUR CHOICE, I PROMISE THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO DO IT; BUT YOU NEED A WILL; STROOOONNGGG WILLLL.

something is working

My StoryI am a new member but have been reading the posts for a long time. I have suffered bb since I was 21 since I had a tooth apesectomy operation in fact! I am now 38. Its been very depressing and I have had many comments that hurt.there is an antibiotic that completelt took bb away but once you stop using it its back. i tried retardex to no avail. Profresh however has been working miracles. Please try it. u must start with the double dose of liquids that you add and it tastes putrid. follow the instructions to the letter. i do it on waking and last thing at nite. I am not a spammer jimi cos I live in africa and believe me there is no profresh here. I ordered it on internet. It works and I feel fantastic.

August 2008 Diary

Jimi's DiarySame shit as last month, I am trying peroxide, it does help, i feel fresher but my mind is *censored*ing with me. When I think I have good breath and try to talk to people I get horrible reactions and when I think my bb is horrible, I don't get back so horrible reactions.

I tried almost everything till now. Right now I am using baking soda for bushing teeth, using tung brush, using pure peroxide for sinuses and inject probiotics directly into my ass. Can you believe this shit. I am prepared to do everything, and this *censored*ing bb is just getting stronger and stronger!!!!!!!!

I am practically vegan most of the time, I have binges once per week. But this *censored*ing disease is so complex.

We don't even know where it is coming from . Not even one of the *censored*ers who are constantly making fun of us don't tell us, where it is coming from .

Halitomafia ignores us, because we are bad for business. Scientists don't probably give a *censored*, because we are minority!!!.

Having this disease is like getting a jackpot for few millions, probably even the percentage for having bb is less than becoming millionaire.

I am injecting *censored*ing probiotics directly into ass. I am humiliated, I am doing liver flushes, this week it has been probably my 10 th liver flush and I don't get any real improvement.

I mean bb is so bad people from a apartment above me react by walking like *censored*ing elephants and holding noses in front of my apartment. *censored*ing animals. It must smell to their apartment.

Sometimes I am pissed I just breathe out of window directly up so they can smell it even more. After a minute I can hear foot steps and that fat elephant closes his window. In fact right now I will do it. I ust think why do I care, why I dont just open y mouth all the time, I mean nobody likes me anyway, so why hide this hideous condition. BECAUSE I CARE FOR PEOPLE AND I FEEL SORRY FOR THEM; SORRY FOR THEM HAVING TO SMELL MY BB:

But it varies bb. On some day it is really good, not perfect, on some day I can be smelled like 50 meters or more in the outdoor. I dot know if that is possible but still.

My mind is triggering intensity of bb really a lot. I think we have some kind of mind trauma that is triggering bb. If that trauma would be cleared we would be cleared in a second.

Still need to have a therapist once per month, to help me cope with life.

I haven't have a real girlfreind for 2 years now. I see everyday what fat and ugly guys get cute chicks, but not me. Many people have told me in the past how good looking i was. But no getting a girlfriend is a hard one.

This *censored*ing life, i know there are more serious disease than we have, but still we have to live in isolation .

My parents, my mother would *censored*ing kill me if she could, that *censored*ing *censored* started to hate me when the bb first started. She had that *censored*ing idea that meds will help me so she desperately believed shrinks will cure me.

This *censored*ing animal, I am so sad that *censored* ever gave birth to me. I really *censored*ing hate this *censored*. SHe is the worst kind of an animal . She would just bury me alive if she could. Before when I still had no bb I was the best son, now she hates me to death.

I don't deserve such a *censored* for a mother, burn in hell. I had to go through so much pain only because of bb, she beat me, I had to sleep in a car when she was verbally and physically attacking me, she is on several psych meds, and she is like a *censored*ing mind zombie.

*censored* you you *censored*, you were never my mother, my mother died when i was 14 and I got bb, then you *censored*ing monster take over. I miss that mother, but now she became a *censored*ing zombie with no soul.

Yes believe your shrinks and take *censored*ing meds you *censored*. I never wanted something to happen to you, but you wanted to harm me. I am still better person. So I don't want to see you, talk to you, smell you, hear your *censored*ing lying voice, see a email from you, see a phone message from you, *censored* you. But still I never wanted to destroy your life like you did mine. GO live in peace, enjoy but no more contact from your son, I guarantee you that!!!!!!!

THIS IS WHAT BB CAN DO TO A HUMAN LIFE- CREATES HAVOC AND DISASTER!!!!!!!!

FROM A BELOVED BOY I BECAME A MAN WITH BAD AND FRUSTRATING MIND. ONLY BECAUSE OF BAD BREATH: AND STILL HALITOMAFIA IS SUCKING MONEY OUT OF EVERYBODY. STILL IN THE NEWS WE READ BAD BREATH IS CURABLE; STILL ON CNN THEY CLAIM HALITOMAFIA HAVE THE CURE; STILL NOBODY GIVES A SHIT; STILL THEY ARE USING ONLY CHLORHEXIDINE; A DANGEROUS CHEMICAL AND NOTHING ELSE

*censored*ING MORONS

sorry for rants, but this site is like a therapy, I need to show to everybody how I really feel and to beg parents of children with bb, PLEASE LOVE THEM; IT IS NOT YOUR CHILD FAULT; YOU MIGHT PASSED A GENOME TO THEM DIRECTLY; SO IT IS YOUR FAULT; BUT STILL THEY ARE GOING TO SOME TOUGH TIME, LOVE THEM, SUPOPORT THEM, DONT LIE TO THEM, SHOW THEM HOW MUCH YOU LOVE THEM, SHOW THEM YOU WILL BE THERE FOR THEM ALWAYS, THEY ARE YOUR CHILDRENS.

PLEASE I BEG YOU, DONT BECOME LIKE MY PARENTS TURNED OUT. PLEASE DON'T.

July 2008

Jimi's DiaryWow I was just thinking today it has been more than 18 years since I got this terrible, horrible affliction called bad breath. I tied everything, still almost nothing works. I am doing liver flushes, even tried to put peroxide directly into sinuses, got ill for 2 days and still bb sticks like it is glued to me. Each year I get less and less motivation with my life, i mean I dont have not even 1 friend, I am alone all the time, nobody calls me on the phone, not even one person, all my ex friends are gone, nobody calls me and say hey how r u doing.

This disease is terrible, and someday maybe they will laugh at us because they will finally find a lasting cure. But for now it is liek a devil curse, a gipsy last words. I can not really feel the situations, most of my memories from the last 18 years are erased probably pushed deeply into unconsciousness. I've lost my most beutiful years because of *censored*ing bad breath, my whole youth!!!!!

When I look back I have a nice childhood and the puberty was totally *censored*ed up. THe bb is gradually and gradually increasing each year. It is *censored*ing terrible. I am eating so healty, I am practically a vegan with 50 % raw foods and still stink like I would eat *censored*ing cow shit for lunch.

This is amazing. There is few 1000s people here on this site, even more with cronical bb. And TMAU on the other hand gets the news like the cure is not there, but they are working on it.

How come there are so many people here with bb on thsi board that your crap does not help.

*censored* you, at least you could tell the real truth to the public, but no that might have an effect on your sales right?

*censored*ing morons, I think I would be better with TMAU that gets some recognition from public, bad breath is curable if you read the CNN and BBC news.

*censored*ing animals, nobody gives a shit about us! Nobody.

Each day I am walking alone, every time I have to start conversation, never I am asked the first question, never. And after 1 minute of talk they just run away, like I really ate cows shit for breakfast.

Is this nightmare ever gonna end?????????? WHo do I need to beg???? WHO??????

Do I have to go on hunger strike in front of WHO offices?????????

I will do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome

Bad Breath Halitosis. Is a great website and i give you a warm welcome.

SO WELCOME TO BAD BREATH HALITOSIS.

Now most of us have halitosis (Chronic Problem), although some have a acute problem.

Now you maybe Wondering? Has anyone been cured??

The Answer is YES.

Very few members on this board have been cured.

I will go through them later. Right now i will go through the cuases to save your time searching the board.

FACTUAL Causes. (FACTS)

-Dry mouth, insufficient saliva flow.
-PND, well what i think is a "contributer" is bassiccaly access mucus
-Lactose Intolerance, The lack of "lactose" enzymes to digest lactose, which is a sugar found in milk.
-Bad Hygiene
-White coated tongue, a possible link to other causes.
-Acid Reflux, often heartburn is a symptom. Got to get it checked.
-Gum Disease, few of us have this.
-Candida, A fungus infection.

OTHER CUASED. (NOT CERTAIN, NO PROOF)

-Toxic body, cured by doing body flushes.
-Stress, Many of us encounter this in our lives and we think its a contributor.

Possible CURES.

This is the part your waiting for, eh?

Basically many people have come up with some crazy things, in the past. Only a few of them help. None really are the "cure"

Tonsillectomy

So have you ever suffered Tonsil Problems???? Tonsil stones? Or Tonsilithis?

Maybe its time to remove those nasty things..

If your tonsils are the problem then You can say.. Theirs a HIGH CHANCE that you maybe cured...

Reports on how much this operations has helped is pretty large.

Although the price is very High.

Make sure your tonsils are THE PROBLEM before you go ahead with it.

Diet Change..

Yes...

The thing you dont want to change. This is an extremely effective way of helping your bad breath..

Some, could say it is the "cure" but a extreme change....

So what do you have to do? You maybe thinking?

Well you will have to cut down extremely Foods HIGH in Protein and choline. This will starve the Bad Breath bacteria as they live on protien, like we live on food

Bassiccaly... It's Becoming a Veggie.... Very Happy d'oh! d'oh!

While your at it i reccomend you try a full body Detox Plan!

Yogurt, kefir. i.e PROBIOTICS.

This has been used the most from all users...

Bassiccally the logic behind this is if we plunge in a million bacteria against the bad bacteria they will fight

Razz

Like WWIII, Inside your mouth and believe me IT WORKS.
Many of us prefer a shot of it e.g PROBIOTIC DRINK. e.g

DanActive Light

With The liquid you can gargle and swish so it reaches everywere

Nasal Irrigation

This is a great way to flush away that mucous Dancing

This will help incredibly IF you suffer from PND.(POST NASAL DRIP)

Process..

1)Fill up 500 ml of LukeWarm Water.
2)Put 1 Teaspoon into the water.
3)Make sure its has a nozzle end. Then pour into nose, your head should be looking at 90 Degrees, do this for both nostrils.

Thats that.

The Tung Brush

This beautiful masterpiece was sent from the gods!!!! Partner this with VITAMIN C (Look Below) could form a possible cure.

This handy tool is easy to find in US. But may have to find it online for UK ( Just Google it.)

Vitiman c

This little vitamin will kill bad breath in high doses. Although many have reported the effect to have run out.... REMEMBER IT MUST BE SUGARLESS!!!!!!!
Some people have been cured with this combo:
Vit C + TungBRUSH + Yogurt. Interesting eh?

We have been told by many members that they have recieved the best effect from "GNC sugarless chewable Vit C cherry flavored"

Make sure take HIGH DOSES
Razz Razz Razz

These are the top 3

Now Remember!!!!

MOUTHWASHES ARE HARMFUL CHEMICALS.

THEY DON'T WORK!

Now that you have read this i think this SUMS up pretty much the best this site has come up with.

I am relatively new so.. if anyone thinks of anything to add PM me.

BESIDES FINDING THE CURE THIS SITE IS MORE THAN JUST THAT. SO IF THIS LITTLE ARTICLE DOES NOT HELP THEN PLEASE REGISTER. THIS WEBSITE IS HERE TO HELP EACH OTHER THROUGH THESE DARK TIMES... WE KNOW HOW YOU FEEL WE ALL FEEL THE SAME. SO WE SHOULD STICK WITH EACH OTHER AND FIGHT FOR FREEDOM! WERE LIKE A GANG. WE WILL STICK WITH EACH OTHER WHEN WE GO THROUGH A BAD TIME.

PLEASE REGISTER

THANK YOU AND WELCOME!!!!! Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
