Rotten breath?

Couldn't be worse if I was a zombie. Where did it come from?

      Ketosis is most likely the cause.

      I have the same problem. Two main reasons are dehydration and ketosis if you're not eating much carbs. I carry Altoids with me everywhere I go.

      How long is this supposed to last? I've become increasingly self conscious because of it.

    My dentist says it often happens with low carb diets.

    Yep, it's reported here on the forum again and again. It will eventually pass.

    White tongue could be thrush for sure. If it persists, I'd call the doc.

    Yeah I hate it :( I've never had a problem with my breath before. Listerine pocket pack dissolvable strips are my new best friend :/ I hope it isn't permanent.
