Halitosis

Halitosis is widespread and quite common. You have probably discretely stepped away from friends or colleagues with Halitosis (bad breath). But it can also be a shock to realize that others, for the same reason, may be edging (discretely) away from you!

How can you know if your breath is offensive?

Try this simple Halitosis test:
Lick the inside of your wrist and wait 4 seconds. Now smell your wrist. If you don’t like what smell, your breath does not smell good either. Easy, no? An accurate and portable diagnosis!

I have a friend who is a sensitive person. We were sitting at a table and I asked him how his day was. He said OK, but his breath was bad and his stomach seemed upset. After I asked a few more questions he finally let on he that hed had an argument with his employer. As he was telling his story he drank the big glass of water I had given him. And as soon as hed unburdened his feelings and the water was gone so was his bad breath/ halitosis. The moral of this story dehydration and emotional issues can both affect our breath.

What causes Halitosis?

Not enough water in your body, dehydration.
Gum or tooth problems/...
