You know the feeling. You are talking to someone and you can just see in their eyes that your breath is smelly. You try to talk with a lower voice, but that doesn't really help.
The next time you talk to a person, you stand a little farther away but the other person can still smell your foul breath.
Eventually, you get worn down and you feel afraid to talk to people because you just know your breath smells. Having smelly breath can actually lead to depressions, so make sure you do something about your condition.
I've been where you are now and after doing some research, this is what I discovered:
The top reason for halitosis is:
#1 - Wrong Food
The most common reason for bad breath is eating something that stinks. Garlic, onions, spicy food and stuff like that can cause temporarily halitosis.
#2 - Dry Mouth
The second most common cause for bad breath is a dry mouth. When your mouth is dry you produce less salvia and get more bacteria on your tongue as a result.
The bacteria in your mouth are what causing your breath to smell and the only way to get rid of bad breath are to get rid of the bacteria.
You see, the bacteria on your tongue are producing waste and that is what smells so bad. You cannot just remove the waste. You have to remove the cause of the bacteria and make sure that they doesn't have optimal living conditions.
Bacteria require a dry environment with little oxygen so make sure you drink a lot of water.
