The Truth About Bad Breath & What the Symptoms Mean |
|
Bad breath is caused by Anaerobic Sulfur Producing Bacteria which normally live WITHIN the surface of the tongue and in the throat. These bacteria are supposed to be there, because they assist humans in digestion by breaking down proteins found in specific foods, mucous or phlegm, blood, and in diseased or "broken-down" oral tissue. Under certain conditions, these bacteria start to break down proteins at a very high rate. Proteins are made up of Amino Acids. Two of the Amino Acids (Cysteine and Methionine) are dense with sulfur.
When these "beneficial" bacteria come into contact with these compounds, the odorous and "lousy-tasting" sulfur compounds are released from the back of the tongue and throat, as Hydrogen Sulfide, Methyl Mercaptan, and other odorous and bad tasting compounds. These "problem" compounds are often referred to as volatile sulfur compounds (VSC), where volatile means Vaporous and Effervescent, two adjectives which accurately describe their ability to offend other people instantly.
Because my original degree is in Bacteriology, let me explain a very important fact about these "bugs". They are not "bad guys" - they are not infectious. Everyone in the world has the same group of bacteria in their mouth. You cannot "catch" bad breath from someone else - even by kissing. Since they are part of our normal oral flora, you cannot permanently remove them from your mouth - not by tongue scraping, not by antibiotics, and not by rinses which claim to "lift the bacteria off your tongue". The only scientifically proven and clinically effective method of halting Halitosis is by attacking the bacteria's ability to produce VSC and by converting the VSC into non-odorous and non-tasting organic salts. (I should know, I've personally treated nearly 10,000 people at my California Breath Clinics and I've helped thousands more through my TheraBreath formulas.

“What is the root cause of bad breath?” |
|
The answer is one word.
Toxins! Toxins are the root cause of bad breath. Toxins are foul smelling, sticky substances that cause disease in humans. Toxins form in our body by external and internal means. Internally toxins form from a weakened digestive system. When our digestive system becomes imbalanced our digestive fire becomes weak and the food we eat is not digested properly. When food isn’t digested properly toxins are formed and these toxins get deposited in your mouth and digestive system. Toxins in your body are indicated by a white coating on your tongue first thing in the morning, foul smelling stools that sink rather then float plus a list of other symptoms. These toxins lodge themselves in our mouth, stomach and intestines. The smell from these toxins is the root cause of your bad breath. But now lets talk about the bad breath remedies that can cure your problem. So what is the remedy for bad breath? As you have guessed the remedy is simply: 1. Remove toxins from your mouth 2. Remove toxins from your digestive tract. This is done through using a natural system of special techniques that I reveal step by step within my e-book “Bad breath to Sweet breath”.
