Strange Question about Breath

Ever since I was banded on 5/14/13, I have had bad breath. I can brush my teeth and use mouth wash but always have a bad taste in my mouth. I really think at times my breath could kill someone. YIKES! Anyone else experienced this?

  • Ketosis is the process where the body is metabolizing body fat to use on our sugar levels. So in other words bad breath can be because you are using fat or losing weight. Www.mddietclinic.com/how-to

    Oh my god, I was terrified of asking that question. I am going through the same thing and couldn't figure it out. Thanks for being the one who asked.

  • If you eating high protein and very low carbs you body could be in ketosis which does cause bad breath. Try increasing your healthy carbs.

Does anyone know if we can have sugar free breath mints since we can't chew gum??

My dr said no gum or mints. I can only use those breath strips.

plenty of sugar free gum and mints on the market many docs don't have a problem with them just check with your own doctor for guidelines ..

Lots of awesome advise thanks y'all
