Re: Chronic Bad Breath

Hay, Everybody;
In my search for answers I read this story. It doesn't cure my BB, just at least I laughted, and it did temperarily helped.

Breath odors don't always come from the mouth - stomach can sometimes be the culprit. Breath issues are not funny, but I don't understand how some feel the need to resort to silence so as not to offend others. I've gotten some whiffs of some pretty horrible breath, so I carefully position myself in a 'safe distance'.
Here's something for a little chuckle - and remember, you're not alone:
A young couple decided to wed. As the big day approached, they grew apprehensive. Each had a problem they had never before shared with anyone, not even each other. The Groom-to-be, overcoming his fear, decided to ask his father for advice. "Father," he said, "I am deeply concerned about the success of my marriage. I love my fiancée, very much, but you see, I have smelly feet - it's horrible, and I'm afraid that my future wife will be put off by them." "No problem," said dad, "all you have to do is wash your feet as often as possible, and always wear socks...even to bed." Well, to him this seemed a workable solution.
The bride-to-be, overcoming her fear as well, decided to take her problem up her mom. "Mom," she said, "When I wake up in the morning my breath is truly awful." "Honey," her mother consoled, "everyone has bad breath in the morning." "No, you don't
understand. My morning breath is so bad, I'm afraid that my new husband will not want to sleep in the same room with me."
Her mother said simply, "Try this. In the morning, get straight out of bed, and head for the bathroom and brush your teeth. The key is, not to say a word until you've brushed your teeth. Not a word," her mother affirmed. Well, she thought it was certainly worth a try. The loving couple were finally married in a beautiful ceremony. Not forgetting the advice each had received, he with his perpetual socks and she with her morning silence, they managed quite nicely. Early one morning, shortly before dawn, the husband wakes and was startled to find that one of his socks had come off! Fearful of the consequences, he frantically searches the bed. This, of course, woke his bride and without thinking, she asked, "what on Earth are you doing?" "Oh no!" he gasped in shock..."you've swallowed my sock!!"

Re: Chronic Bad Breath

i was wondering if anyone has ever used spirulina and chlorella. I really think the only way to get rid of bb is from the inside out. You know hitting it in every direction. I mean of course using good oral hygene is a must but there has to be more than that or everyone would be cured. I mean i figure if you are cleaning your mouth tongue tonsils yes i said tonsils nose and inside thoroughly as well as eating well and making sure your body gets all the vitamins and nutrients it needs everyday then there is no way that your breath could stink right?

No, I have not try these two. If you decide to try it for yourself and experience positive results, plse let us know.

Has anyone tried the HaliTonic? It sounds like all other stuff w great promise of curring BB. I may order the produce and see what happends. Let me know it you tried and it was junk.

Re: Chronic Bad Breath

hi people, i have chronic halitosis and i believe, chronic sinusitis too. today was my first day on profresh and my breath just smells like bleach now. so pretty much, i've tried every product on the net to cure my bb. i will admit though the dr katz extra strength mouth wash has had the best affect (though not nearly as well as it claims to work).

i've had bb for about 5 years. doctors and my dentist dont have a clue on how to treat it. i was referred to an ENT but i do not currently have health insurance. how much would a first visit to an ENT cost? and what can i expect? im in my upper 20s and live alone. because of my bb, I'm quite alienated from all my old freinds and it feels as if my life has been on pause for the last 5 years.

right now, im just really, really bummed that the profresh didnt work. i guess its back to dr katz (he guarantees what? 8 hours of fresh breath? for me it's only 15-20 minutes of clean breath after each regime. but those 15 minutes are better than nothing) does anyone know if theres a difference between his extra strength and regular strength? the regular stuff i see at walmart. it would be handy at least to just buy it from there.

anyway, i guess my last hope would be to eventually see an ENT. i could ask him about my sinuses too because for the last few months ive been popping antibiodics. my bb could be related to my sinusitis too but i doubt it. ive had bb for many years and my sinuses have only recently flared up. who the heck knows what the cause of any of this is. i surely dont.

anyway, it pains me to read a lot of these posts. i certainly feel for all of you and hope that one day you can ALL be cured of this nasty problem. to most people bad breath is only a nuisance, yet to us it is like a life-and-death situation. really, it has affected my life in every aspect. i am just barely hanging in there.
