Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

From what I've been reading lately, there has been success with using baking soda, salt, TUNG brush and nasal wash. Some are using them separately... but I think if used all together, it could be the best chance for bb management.
This morning I brushed, brushed with TUNG brush on my tongue with b.s., rinsed mouth with b.s., salt and warm water mixture, then did my nasal passages with warm water, salt and b.s mixture.
I plan to swollow some b.s. after I have my baby, just don't want to chance it being pregnant and all.
But I feel really clean today and confident. I haven't had much of a chance to test reactions, but it feels great.
anyone else doing this combo?

Yes, lately I have positive results from using baking soda with Aktiv-12.

My routine:
1. Nasal rinse with NeilMed, and GSE (grape fruit seed extract)
2. Brush/floss/tung brush
3. Gargle with peroxide
4. Place 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda on my tongue, and swallow with water.
5. Place 1/4 teaspoon of Aktiv-12 on my tongue, and let it dissolve.

As I can tell most of the people I come in contact with have either no reaction at all, or a slight reaction but they are still willing to interact with me (work/doctors visits). I just need to gather up the nerve to test it at a night club.

Pretty much the exact same combo.

I agree with the clean and confident feeling, however I think that's all that can be asked for. I'm aware that no matter how confident I am, the 1st person to smell it will inform me that it still smells bad. But the confidence is important regardless IMO. I always think, "maybe today it's not THAT bad"

Pregnant woman get temporary BB anyways because of the pressure on the stomach area, and hormonal/digestive/diet changes... why worry? Try not to stress yourself during these times. It can't be good.

Elliot-
Thanks! I'm sure being preggo is making my bb ten times worse. Everything is tight from my neck down to my legs, and I have the worst heartburn known to man.
I've had bb since I was 18, and now I am 32. I've luckily found a wonderful man who can stand my breath and loves me anyway. He def. knows I have it though. However in bed last night, he was all up in my face ( after my morning regimen of bs, salt, tung brush- and then I just brushed my teeth before bed) and he didn't seem to budge. Usually when we talk in bed, he's got a pillow right next to his nose to run for cover!

I'm going to keep it up and keep testing reactions.

Hm, well maybe it does make some % of difference. Maybe try and ask him throughout the day how your breath is maintained... just to judge when it wears off.
