i really would like an opinion

hi, i am new here, so hi to you all
i would like an opinion from fellow sufferers because it is driving me mad

so, about 6 or 7 months ago i was told by somebody close to me that i have bad breath. i had never been told by anybody before that i has bad breath, i am not saying i never had it, just that i had never been told.

about a month later this same person told me that there was a smell of shit around me, and for the first time i could actually smell the shitty smell myself when i opened my mouth, it smelled disgusting.

the thing is i have never cleaned my tongue at this point, probably in my entire life. so i bought a tongue cleaner and starting scraping my tongue, and all this white creamy stuff came off it and i am sure this is where the bad smell was coming from

i then started looking at my tongue alot in the mirror, and noticed a white/yellow coating after a day or so of not cleaning it

i made a dentist appointment and was told that my dental hygiene was very good, he also said my tongue was normal looking and that everybody has a white coating, although i had cleaned it before see him so it wasnt at its worst

you may think then, what is my problem?
well, about 4 or 5 times since i started regularaly cleaning my tongue/brushing my teeth, i have been in a room and been asked if i have farted, and i know the smell is coming from me

there is still a smell coming from my tongue, even after i have brushed it, i put my finger to the back of it and smell my finger and it smells. also, i have been, as a habit now, opening up my nostrils and breathing throught my nose, and my breath is worse when i smell it, so that makes me think it might be coming from my nose.i mostly have a horrible taste in my mouth, the only time i dont is when i am eating something

i have looked up stuff, and saw possible PND, or a liver problem and i am thinking about going to the doctor, but then i think what is the point? a doctor would not care

i am just after some advice from people who might have experienced something similar

sorry for the rant

Hello, welcome to the community.

Forget about your tongue, it's not the cause of your fecal odor. Case in point, Jessica Alba: http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/1935/j ... lbajkd.jpg

As far as i know, there isn't a medical explanation for fecal BB or fecal B.O. But if you have fecal B.O, you should go to a forum dedicated to that topic. If anyone got the link to Arun's website, please post it, that guy knows more about this topic than probably anybody in the world.

Good luck.

hi danger,

this is what i would recommend, take 1 tablet of any kind of laxative every other day (read the directions on the box), and drink a lot of water + eat foods that are less spicy and try to drink soy milk instead of regular milk, eat yogurt.

You might have spent a lot of time in trying to cure ur bb, but try this for a week, n if u don't see a difference u won't have cancer, just take it easy and instead of worrying about it try to work on it.

hope it helped.

methylmercaptan (CH3SH) is a gas produced by bacteria and it smells like shit. there is litle bit of gas neccesary to produce an odor.

Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) smells like rotten eggs, but there is far more gas neccasary to smell it than CH3SH.

maybe this link can help you, its a new product from switzerland called meridol.

Forget about the mouthwashes...

All of us on here have wasted our money on products, but the thing is, that one of the main causes of BB is poor elimination, and that can be aided and cured by certain practices and foods.

Wnaysha said some good stuff there, Increase the amount and frequency of elimination!

I personally like to use and Indian herb called Triphala, and also I drink aloe vera juice (works like a charm). I also avoid refined sugars, and try to eat as many vegetables as possible. I am even eating all kinds of fruit with no problems. I also drink three glasses of plain yoghurt mixed with half water 3 times a day.

Make sure you eat frequently, and naturally (no sugar). Yoga, meditation, and pranayama help a lot.
