- All antibiotics worked for a week at the most.
- 17 days on a no sugar diet and no carbs diet worked. I couldn’t sustain it though:(. I kept breaking it and never made it past day 17.
- teeth whiteners seemed to help
- I recently discovered Silver Tequila, neat with no salt nor lemon gave me relief 1-2 hour relief of bb in social gatherings.
- Oil pulling helped sometimes
- Drinking club soda/carbonated water helped to refresh mouth on the spot for about 20 minutes
I came across a video that talked about the “Lion Diet” and how people were gettind rid of body odor etc. None of the videos ever mentioned the bb but since I’ve tried every other crazy thing out there, I figured try this. I filled my freezer with red meat and began making red meat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Weirdly, by day 3 of red meat, salt and water to drink, my mouth felt fresher. Something felt different and no more bitter metallic taste by day 4. Day 5, I started seeing less coating on my tongue BUT increased mucus. My nose was runny like a cold, but the smell was faded. Day 6, mucus continued and bb was reduced to about 50%. My biggest problem has always been sugar and salt cravings. Fruits, sauces, dairy always made my bb worse. Cough drops, cold medicines and syrups, gum, cheese, ketchup, croissants and cookies were my worst offenders. However I could never stay away from them. By Day 9 on this diet-
I felt my bb disappear! However, I felt a bit backed up. I drank celery juice in the morning and it helped me flush out the constipation. Eww. Days 10-14 were good. I went out to karaoke , birthday parties and did experiments by going to random stores and talking to cashiers and sales people. To my surprise, no reactions except 1 but my PTSD was so bad that I realized after that person was not reacting to me but to everyone he came in contact with. Anyway, the fear and shyness is real. I barely feel normal and I’m gradually getting used to speaking up. I’m a new person with a new born growing confidence. That will take time though as I’m constantly still looking at people for reactions. Please please keep trying to look for your cure. It will come. I’ve cried, prayed, knelt, suffered, hid, became a hermit basically and I’m finally starting to live life again. I pray for you all, and I know how bad it sounds that I only eat red meat and salt now and only drink water or club soda but this is my solution. Maybe I was born with some genetic defect who knows. But look at testimonials of the Lion Diet and you will see how many people have healed from autoimmune symptoms, diseases and body odors. I also randomly suffered from inflammation and swelling and ever since I started this all red beef diet, it’s gone. I’ve been privately speaking to someone on this journey in this group and she tried it but it didn’t work for her. So, it may not work for everyone but it has worked for me. May God bless us all
. Ps- I wrote this 15 days ago. Im on day 45 now. No medications. No special mouthwash or toothpaste. No more supplements although I take Zinc every other day but I always have. I also stopped the celery juice for a few days and no difference. So maybe that didn’t help as much as I thought. I’m here if anyone has questions. Crazy how your life can change just by eating red meat. Thank God bc the other diet worked BUT I JUST COULD NEVER GET PAST DAY 19!! i tried and always fell off the bandwagon and I hated myself for it. With the red beef, I lost my cravings for sugar, snacks, everything. It’s the weirdest thing!
. Anyways good luck to you and all the people who wish to try this diet. Am sure this will help.
. I personally think grains are the culprit here. I have been on a dairy free diet for long enough to understand that it is not the primary factor contributing to BB. Am yet to try a grain free diet. Fibre less diet would be just juices for me then. Let’s see. Thanks for the wishes as with no diagnosis all that might help us is some luck.
. I was so mad at myself and so upset that I went on a binge. I had pizza sugar ice cream everything I’m not supposed to have and all my biggest offenders. Now I’m back on the lion diet and waiting for the same results. I have messed up occasionally so now im back strict. I’m waiting and praying by day 11-15 it disappears again.
