Re: This is the only thing that actually worked for me

Im not a kid if you are wondering. I only asked because I believe adults have an easier time with strict diets (maybe that's not always true though) I'm 40 and have always believed my bb was caused by my diet. Bad breath has destroyed so much of my life and still I never had the willpower to follow...

Re: Supervised Elimination Diet... list of allowed foods

I have a handbook called The Elimination Diet handbook. It is published by the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital Allergy Unit here in Australia. I am on the strictest diet as outlined in that handbook. It has meal plans and ideas but no actual recipes. My dietitian mentioned a few sources for recipes, bu...

Re: Feeling guilty about eating food I used to love..

Nah, just enjoy it.
Change your diet when you’re really ready.

I’m 40 and B.B. has ruined so much for me and I’m only really ready now.

Supervised Elimination Diet... list of allowed foods

It's not really a 'product' but it does cost time and money... I went to see a dietitian today and I am now beginning a strict elimination diet for the next 6 weeks. I have already given up gluten and that will continue for a minimum of 11 months. I have also reduced my dairy - which I am eliminatin...

Re: Who tells you you have BB? Can everyone smell it?

I've seen this thread, and really wished my problem was halitophobia. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case because people talk to me while covering their noses... Pepper, as bad as that sounds it is not solid proof that you have B.B. They might have a cold, nothing to do with you. You mig...

Re: Elimination diets. Your experiences.

I’m experimenting at the moment but raw foods are usually safe for me. Especially fruits(except bananas). I tried adding kale to a fruit smoothie yesterday and made my breath smell for a couple of days . I have done the anti candida diet in the past and that seemed to help also and it was more affo...

Re: This is the only thing that actually worked for me

What foods are you trying to eliminate? May I ask how old you are? I have only eliminated gluten and dairy so far, sugar next. I know enough not to try and eliminate whole food groups all at once - it's ridiculously hard and will make you sick. If you can afford it you might consider having a dietit...

Re: Who tells you you have BB? Can everyone smell it?

But its confusing the way he saids that the smell does not mean BB, and I have read others saying this on the forum as well. Mate, a lot of people say a lot of things on this forum. I've read some ridiculous stuff. If you *scrape* your tongue and it smells then guess what? Your tongue coating smell...

Re: Who tells you you have BB? Can everyone smell it?

Get a teaspoon and scrape it on your tongue. Smell the fluid that comes off, sometimes it will smell neutral. But sometimes it will smell straight away. Let it dry for 30 minutes to an hour and smell it again. If it’s neutral you have halitophobia, I hope this is what you have. If it smells, you ha...

Re: Elimination diets. Your experiences.

I’ve ordered an elimination handbook from the Royal Prince Albert allergy unit in Sydney Australia. I ordered online but they wouldn’t sell it to me without my providing the name and address of a supervising dietitian. There is one within walking distance of my house so I just put their details in. ...

Elimination diets. Your experiences.

I hesitate to make this post because the truth is I have known about elimination diets since high school but never had the will power to ever actually do one properly. I did once give up dairy and sugar for 6 weeks, it did nothing, but was good for my mental health. Doing something, anything, toward...

Re: Recommendations and Bleach mouthwash quesiton

Give pepto bismol a try.
I think it was effective for a short time for me (couple of hours)

I will ask my husband if it works soon, I only scraped my tongue allowed it to dry and smelled it for now.

I’ve only had it for a few days, I cannot buy it here, I bought through eBay.

Good luck xxx
