Bad Breath Halitosis Forum

I'm sure some of you have visited naturopathic/holistic doctors. What did they say or do? Did they help at all?

I'm thinking of making an appointment for one but they're so dang expensive $$.

The doctor visit was basically useless...Besides having to wait an hour before going to the exam room, when I mentioned lingual tonsils, her response was: "Lingual tonsils??? I've never heard of those." As soon as she said that I knew she couldn't help me. She just ordered a CT scan of my ...

I really hope it works for you as well!! It does for a number of people. I was drinking so much water and trying to eat a lot of soft foods on a daily basis so my scabs didn't 'fall' off. They just slowly faded away, turning from white, to pinkish. I guess because of the constant soft abrasion from ...

I had a tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, and turbinate resection about two months ago. I was really hopeful it would cure me, but it hasn't. The 7 day post-op antibiotic regime made my breath perfect. I was in pain but was in heaven because I thought I was cured. The recuperation process for me was rou...

I did it for two days but had to stop because the stores that sell it here haven't gotten any new shipments of raw milk and they're all out.

It made my breath a little worse whenever I drank it. I don't know if it was from the protein or lactose, but it temporarily made it worse after drinking.

You might be on to something with the lingual tonsils being a potential cause. If I touch my gums with my finger I get no smell, but if I touch my tongue then I get a bad smell. Maybe it's the lingual tonsils on the back of my tongue causing it. I also have my palatine and adenoids already removed s...

According to Murat Aydin, "any form of diet to cure bb is only superstition"... I don't think Murat will agree with you on the fact that your diet cured you. Murat is right. I speak from experience. I've tried every diet ever posted here. Raw food diet, zero-carb diet, vegan, no dairy, et...

n123 Bear44. I am assuming that you still have your lingual tonsils. I have no comment if it is your gut other than trying high potency probiotics at high doses and try using chlorophyll tablets (I Read below and lingual tonsils as the cause (they are lymphoid tissues and can smell - I would really...

It's called proof of concept. If you don't have it, you have nothing. So basically, you have nothing. Test your theory, make a new thread, give some samples out/explain the method, and then wait for responses. Worse case scenario: It doesn't work. Best case scenario: It works, you help people who ha...

LillyB, there are people in this world that love you, whether you know it or not. Think about your family and friends. They would be devastated if you were gone. Step back for a moment, close your eyes, breath deeply, and think of all the things you should be thankful for. You may feel silly, but re...

I got my palatine tonsils and adenoids removed at the same time about 3 months ago. The bb only went away for the 10 days I had to take my post-op antibiotics. The very next day when my antibiotic cycle was done, the bad breath returned. This makes me believe it's a gut/bacterial dysbiosis. Another ...

Agree with you fully. The only two things that can cure you imo is surgery or antibiotics. Btw i waterfasted once for 8 days. It didn't help me. It came back shortly after eating again. But who knows, some people go for as long as a month. Maybe that would work, but i doubt it. IIRC bacteria has a ...

Ate high carb vegan for a week. The only times I saw slight improvement was on the days I would eat watermelon. I'm guessing this is due to the high water content and fiber from the fruit that flushes the oral cavity during each bite. Other than that, didn't notice too much of a difference. Plus I g...

So I'm reading about and experimenting with different diets to see how they affect my breath and overall health. Low Carbohydrate, Moderate/High Protein, High Fat Diet: After reading how some people experience negative symptoms after ingesting carbohydrate rich meals, and simultaneously diagnosing m...
