I'm cured- saline solution
Posted: Sat Mar 04, 2023 3:43 am
Ive been visiting this site for around 20 years, that's how long I've suffered from bad breath. Only recently made an account. I had bad breath from my mouth only, not nasal BB. It wasn't room filling but I'd say you could smell it from 1 or 2 metres away. I've tried sooo many products and spent a fortune on them over the years.
I've finally cured myself, although seriously kicking myself at the simple solution.
I used regular saline solution from the pharmacy and did nasal rinses for 3 times a day for 2 weeks. At first, I didn't notice too much difference, but slowly slowly it's completely cured my bad breath.
I'm kicking myself because I've tried so many times making my own nasal rinses, using oils, salt, baking soda etc. I often would make them too strong and then it would really hurt so I'd wait a day, few days, weeks and then go back to it again. So basically I was really inconsistent with it and I didn't really believe it would cure me as I didn't feel like I had post nasal drip or anything like that. But turns out I was totally wrong. I was on antibiotics when I was 18 months for half a year and I believed that was the cause of it all. It 'hit' me when I was 17.
It's been nearly 1 month and it's pretty unbelievable how much my life has changed. I can now eat anything, drink coffee etc and I don't have a horrible taste in my mouth and I'm getting 0 reactions when I talk. I'm a primary teacher so I know 100% I'm cured as I'm getting 0 reactions from my students now, whereas before, they would make it very obvious. I can also feel in my mouth that my breath is neutral.
The 1 thing that always gave me 100% relief for 2/3 hours was smoking weed. So if that helps you, then you must try just regular saline solution and try it for at least 2 weeks, even if you don't feel like you have post nasal drip.
Coconut oil pulling gave me some relief and also sucking on zinc tablets but I was inconsistent with that too because it would often give me bad headaches. Eating carrots helped somewhat as well. Hydrogen peroxide was hit and miss, sometimes it would work well for a few hours, other times, not at all. Ultradex toothpaste and mouth rinse were the best out of all the products and they also whitened my teeth. I guess all these things were hitting the back of my throat and covering the mucus for a short time.
My life has been ruined by this horrible curse, of course I'm super happy that I've found my cure and always dreamed of the day that I would be able to write an 'Im cured' post on this website! But I still have to deal with the reality of how many friends I've lost, the awful and embarrassing moments in my life, the looks of disgust that I would get. But now I need to focus on rebuilding myself and trying to improve my mental health.
I just want to thank each and everyone of you for posting possible cures and sharing your experiences as they've really helped me along the way and just knowing I'm not alone with this. Thank you to Jimi who runs this site.
I wish all of you so much luck with finding your cure. I so wish I could wave a magic wand and help all of you to be cured.
Good luck friends xxx
