now a person with bad breath is usually

the last person to know they have bad

breath how do we know that because

they’re usually talking very close to

your face without too much awareness on

their bad breath i have some very uh

interesting information that you

probably haven’t heard before that is

very very important especially related

to

breath you see just like in my other

videos if you want to know the truth

about health

just find out what everyone’s

recommending and do the opposite or

finding out what they’re telling you not

to do

and do it and this definitely applies to

bad breath so before i get into that

point i want to first talk about certain

foods that

can cause bad breath so you have garlic

onions both of those foods are loaded

with sulfur compounds so eating anything

with sulfur can definitely give you a

certain odor so if your spouse or

partner eats anything

with garlic or onions unless you’re

eating things with garlic and onions

it’s going to be pretty unpleasant and

then you have cheese there’s all sorts

of stinky cheese limburger cheese for

example or blue cheese which has mold in

it will all contribute to some pretty

nasty breath but when you ask someone

like when i ask my father why do you eat

limburger cheese it smells so bad

apparently it doesn’t taste bad it just

smells bad so i first want to talk about

some real simple things you can do to

counter your bad breath if you’ve eaten

foods with garlic onion

cheese etc one thing that works really

good to counter the bad breath is green

tea you can use it as a mouthwash you

can drink it it seems to counter the

sulfur compounds in certain foods now

the other thing that’s really good

organic parsley and mint or peppermint

and then when you have garlic or onions

just take a little bit out of your

refrigerator and chew on it it

completely neutralizes the bad taste and

the smell that you would get from eating

those foods now

another type of toothpaste that i like

to recommend

especially if someone has bad breath is

toothpaste with clove and there’s all

different combinations with with clove

with cardamom they’re really really good

to even act as a natural

antibiotic without killing the good

bacteria now this leads me right into a

very important topic

that

so many people have no idea that’s

creating a big problem with their breath

and that is using toothpaste with

fluoride and using a mouthwash with

alcohol you see there’s something

that is either

not understood that’s missing in the

area of oral health which is this in

your mouth you have hundreds of

different species of microbes growing

okay in your mouth and as far as a

quantity we’re talking about hundreds of

billions of microbes now we want them

mostly friendly but you have two

different groups you have the unfriendly

ones and you have the friendly ones so

when you talk about fluoride in your

toothpaste right that kills the germs

that might cause plaque that can then

cause bad breath or when you’re talking

about mouthwash that kills the germs

that cause bad breath what about the

good germs that prevent bad breath it’s

not that you just have these bad germs

in your mouth that are causing bad

breath and then you can sterilize your

mouth and everything’s better that’s the

same logic is taking an antibiotic

thinking that you’re killing off the

infection when you’re in fact killing

off

all of the microbes that are supposed to

protect you against infections and this

reasoning has led to antibiotic

resistance a massive amount of

overgrowth of unfriendly

bacteria

and yeast and an overgrowth of candida

oral thrush or a white tongue where you

have too much unfriendly yeast that is

giving you some pretty bad breath so

fluoride

and chloride in your water combined as

you’re brushing your teeth and getting

this water in your mouth is basically

killing both the good and bad bacteria

so it might give you a nice breath

initially but then it ends up being

bad breath so i would recommend getting

toothpaste without the fluoride i would

recommend also getting a water filter

and i would definitely avoid the

mouthwashes with alcohol because alcohol

kills microbes

i mean think about a sanitizer with

rubbing alcohol that’s supposed to kill

viruses and bacteria what do you think

it’s doing to your friendly bacteria now

there’s some other things you can do as

well you can actually get some gum with

xylitol xylitol is a sugar alcohol

that is very selective in what it kills

off it won’t kill off the good bacteria

it only apparently kills off certain bad

bacteria that cause plaque

the bad bacteria that causes plaque

apparently gives off a certain gas that

is kind of stinky so that would be one

thing you can do

another thing to do as a natural

deodorizer is to consume things with

chlorophyll

now what would that be that would be all

the green stuff in

plants as in vegetables okay i think one

of the best sources of chlorophyll would

be the wheatgrass juice powder that

stuff has some serious chlorophyll and

it’s a great deodorizer not just for

your mouth but internally okay all the

organs including the intestine all right

the next point i want to bring up is

coffee and coffee breath

that can be quite nasty now that’s

because the sulfur compounds in coffee

beans as well as certain acids that

occur in the coffee bean including

cannons which can

really dry out your mouth and affect

your the microbiome in your mouth so of

course with coffee breath you want to

brush your teeth with some really good

toothpaste that has clove and it doesn’t

have fluoride but chewing parsley and

mint is also a really good thing all

right i already mentioned a little bit

about alcohol but it’s not just the

alcohol mouthwash it’s also the alcohol

in

alcohol

beverages so if you drink alcohol every

so often just make sure that you don’t

consume

more than a six pack a night and you

want to take a natural probiotic and i’m

mainly talking about like fermented

vegetables and sauerkraut kimchi

things like that to reestablish these

microbes all right the next point i want

to bring up and this is probably the

number one source of that breath that

would be sugar sugar feeds unfriendly

microbes it feeds yeast

which is a type of candida and so that’s

its primary fuel if you want to starve

off these unfriendly microbes

very simple just avoid sugar that’s

called the ketogenic diet

so again these microbes

give off a smelly gas and they produce

bad breath they also make acids that can

put holes in your bones and i’m talking

about your teeth as in cavities and the

average teenager is consuming

at least

18 teaspoons of sugar and that’s just

added that’s not part of the normal

carbohydrates that they’re consuming so

you can imagine how much

bad bacteria that’s being generated now

the next point i want to bring up

is the fact that your mouth is part of

an entire system called the digestive

system so when you focus on one little

part of this whole system and neglect

the other parts you’re not going to ever

fix bad breath so

many people have bad breath because of a

lower digestive system problem either in

the stomach the small intestine or the

large intestine so this is why if you

have weak stomach acid or you don’t have

enough acidity in your stomach you’re

not going to get the proper digestion

and that alone can create gas that can

come up for your breath and that occurs

from just having incomplete digestion

so this is why apple cider vinegar on a

regular basis

this is why taking betaine hydrochloride

after a meal which is a natural

acidifier is really good for bad breath

and also it prevents something called

sibo small intestinal bacterial

overgrowth

normally

the bacteria should be in the large

intestine not so much in the small

intestine i mean there’s a little bit in

there but there shouldn’t be a lot when

you get too much bacteria

and i’m even talking about the good

bacteria in the wrong place

you’re going to have sibo and what

happens is these microbes compete for

your nutrients

and they also create a lot of gas and

they create a lot of bad breath in

overgrowth of unfriendly microbes and

this can definitely create not just

bloating

but it also can create some bad breath

now the thing you need to know about

this is that if you consume probiotics

and fiber okay and salads and you feel

worse you have a lot of distension

that could mean that you have sibo in

which case you should stop eating those

things and go carnivore for a little

while because

to kill these microbes you have to not

feed them anymore and you’d want to take

things like betaine hydrochloride and

you’d want to do fasting to allow the

digestive system to reset and you might

want to take a natural

antibiotic like oregano for example so

the reason i want to bring this up is

because the recommendation

of taking probiotics and fiber

might be conflicting if you have sibo so

one of the key ways you know

is with bloating and distension if you

have too much fiber or probiotics but

most of the population is going to

benefit

from probiotics and more vegetables and

things like that but if you don’t then

suspect sibo but at this point probably

the most important thing to study next

is my video on digestion if you haven’t

seen this i think you’re going to really

like it check it out
