Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

Oh yea I'm all for having someone neutral there definately but who? And how do we know we can trust them to be honest? If we could find that I'd be more than glad to let them be there. You or the others attending could perhaps ask around for a volunteer, maybe someone who might even be interested i...

I've never been to a meetup, but if it's possible, you should try taking along a neutral friend or volunteer of some kind so that they can dismiss the possibility of familiarity/familiarization (whatever the word is). The reactions that seem to be happening might be because of odour emitted from oth...

Yep, that's what I mean. I've never relied on reactions (mostly because I have always tried to prevent subjecting anyone to my breath) but mostly because I know for a fact that if I'm looking for (or expecting) a reaction to my breath, I'll see one, even if my breath smells as clear as mountain air....

My brother and sister constantly taunting me about it during childhood. No reaction can ever be considered a definite confirmation, and far more likely to be part of a paranoia. As a guide though, if you have ever watched the behaviour of people around a person you know to have BB, it depends very m...

Interesting because one of the main causes of diverticulitis is chronic constipation and a lot of people on here say they have had constipation for years.

If you click on forum at the top of the main page, search down the forum you'll see his name. Click on it and there's an option to view all his posts. Go through the last 10 or so. I noticed an immediate difference. By the next day. I am noticing my swollen tummy is shrinking too, but it could simil...

Yes it is a humbling experience when you are trapped by this affliction, halitophobic or not. I have always had reliable feedback on my breath from my brother, but he loses his patience very quickly if ever I mention this "problem". People who don't have BB simply do not understand how BB ...

I'm extremely shy too. Sensitive and self-conscious. My mind never ever stops talking to itself when other people are around me. It's like I'm always on alert for that one stupid bastard to say or do something to bring me down. It's almost as if I advertise myself with the way I act around others. A...

Compor, at the moment my current regime is as follows. CloSys toothpaste brushed into tongue surface. Helps to give a baseline to work on each day. I then brush teeth using Colgate total. I then rinse mouth thoroughly with the cheap zinc-containing mouthwash. After waiting 30 mins I then fill a smal...

Thanks for sharing what helps you. If you haven't tried before, try brushing chlorhexidine digluconate into your tongue, using your tooth scraping device. This way you will eliminate the problem of tooth staining. It will take a few days for your tongue surface to get used to it, and for you to get ...

If you can't see this behaviour as anything other than totally normal behaviour, you need help. What's more likely - that certain people emit gas or particles that just happen to make people around them spontaneously rub their noses, cough, etc - or that certain people develop a paranoia that makes ...

Good luck Jess.
Do you discuss your BB with this doctor? If so, is he hopeful it will cure you?

One possibility might be stomach acid. Reflux or 'silent reflux' can affect the sinuses and other mucous membranes in the ways you have described. See what your doctor thinks

Atrial, it's my opinion, and I don't really care less what you compare me to.

Why do we need to know anything except love. This is at the heart of everything that Jesus was about. Even bad breath is a problem to us because we're judged by others, and then we become envious of those who are judging us. If all humans had BB, would we care about BB? I would rather be a person wh...
