Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

I have horrible bad breath and it’s room filling but for some reason whenever I eat foods with carbs it goes away for like 15 minutes depending on how much of it I eat. Whole grain carbs makes it disappear the longest. Anyone else experience this? If not I suggest trying it. We may find something we have in common. And no I’m not in ketosis trust me

Yes i have that too. Whenever i eat my bad breath dissapears for a bit of time. Whenever i need to be close to someone i always snack on something like pretzels to keep the smell out my mouth. But as soon as i finish eating, the bb returns about 30 mintues later. Sometimes the bb stays gone for a couple hours especially if i drank a lot.

I feel like it's the other way around for me, after a a carb meal like rice and pasta, my breath reaches the next level especially the next day

How do you all know that the smell disappear?

By the same way we judge that the smell is still there

Gonna make a new post but I’ll also reply here. I finally find the cause of my BB and the cure. Basically my diet was bad. I wasn’t eating enough fruit and veggies nor water and sometimes I wasn’t eating enough calories so I was dealing with ketosis breath on top of slow emptying of the bowels because I didn’t eat enough fruits and vegetables. Pretty sure I had vitamin deficiencies which I solved with multi vitamins. My breath is normal now no longer room filling and I also feel better so I hope this helps

I'm so happy for you!
What is your diet at the moment? Could you share it please?

Thanks! I am too and I really don’t have a specific diet I follow but lately I have been lots of spinach, carrots and celery and making sure I drink the right amount of water. I still eat processed sometimes but with the right amount of good foods I’m ok. I also take Nature Made multi vitamins, the ones that come with iron to increase my appetite so I eat enough calories. Also too much protein can have a bad affect on your breath also so make sure you eating more carbs than anything
