A fruity odor to the breath occurs as the body attempts to get rid of excess acetone through the breathing. This is a characteristic sign of ketoacidosis, which may occur in diabetes, and is a potentially life-threatening condition. A fecal odor to the breath (the breath smells like feces) can occur with prolonged vomiting, especially when there is a bowel obstruction. It may also occur temporarily if a person has a nasogastric tube (a tube placed through the nose or mouth to the stomach to drain the stomach contents) in place.

You may not always know that you have bad breath. That’s because odor-detecting cells in the nose eventually get used to the smell. Other people may notice and react by recoiling as you speak. If you don’t brush and floss your teeth daily, food particles can remain in your mouth, which promotes bacteria growth between teeth, around the gums, and on the tongue. This causes bad breath. In addition, odor-causing bacteria and food particles can cause bad breath if dentures are not properly cleaned.

Factors that affect the airways and cause bad breath

Sinusitis.
Polyps.
Dryness.
Foreign body.
Hindered air or mucus flow.
Bronchitis.
Pneumonia.
Bronchiectasis
Bad breath may be the sign of a medical disorder, such as a local infection in the respiratory tract, chronic sinusitis, postnasal drip, chronic bronchitis, diabetes, gastrointestinal disturbance, liver or kidney ailment. If your dentist determines that your mouth is healthy, you may be referred to your family doctor or a specialist to determine the cause of bad breath.

Use proper dental hygiene (especially flossing), and remember that mouthwashes are not effective in treating the underlying problem. If simple self-care techniques don’t solve the problem, you may want to see your dentist or doctor to rule out a more serious condition that may be causing your bad breath.

Fresh parsley or a strong mint are often effective ways to fight temporary bad breath. Avoid smoking. Otherwise, follow prescribed therapy to treat the underlying cause.

The key to successful treatment, is the surface of the tongue! The dorsal surface of the tongue in cross-section is like a shag rug -papillae forming deep crevasses which defy thorough cleaning. What collects in this surface is plaque, sticky bacterial, cellular debris and food particles which becomes an anaerobic incubator of bad odors. The tongue scrapper much be somewhat flexible to follow the contours of the tongue yet rippled, ridges or “rake-like” in profile to do a proper job.

Loosely noting that the dictionary defines the meaning of “toxins” as poison, we certainly have to give this some consideration. Though food in a pristine state, when grown organically, unprocessed and of course, not subject to the irradiation process (for containing bacterial contaminants), has the lowest toxicity levels we can hope for, there are unfortunately pollutants in our soils and air that have accumulated over time.

Pollution, at least for now is here to stay, but toxic pollution of our foods is on the rise. This has been going on for decades and is a direct byproduct of the food processing industry. Liver overload is not only caused by toxins from foods, but also from some prescription drugs, which almost everyone has taken at sometime or other in their lives and some elderly have been known to take a dozen or more on a daily basis. Some drugs even require regular blood work in order to monitor toxicity level variations that they remain below some critical level.

True, some manufacturers have announced the removal of certain additives from their “prepared” foods; it is as a pebble of sand on our ocean shore. It is certainly a step in the right direction, but to even hope for the removal of all additives from our prepared foods would be like asking the automobile industry to go back to the Model-T ford, as an example. The consumer would lose all the “additives” convenience that has been built-up over all of those decades, making for a very unhappy customer.

Why Are We Not given Toxin Levels on Food Labels?

First of all, it must be noted here that very few food additives could be given total non-toxicity status, depending on the criteria used, so this could then qualify most foods to be labeled, since virtually all contain even a minute level of additives, whether it be a flour conditioner or color modifier. This would become very costly for the manufacturer and could also cause much hardship and loss of business due to consumer awareness.

There are possibilities that asbestos may not be the only reason for growth of mesothelioma. Sometimes simian virus also acts as the factor. However, asbestos threat still seems to be the greatest factor and that is why the OSHA in United States has set up the minimum safety level for use of and exposure to asbestos.  The HSE, the premier health authority in UK does not believe in any such standard and favor massive use of personal protective gears to prevent risk of exposure causing mesothelioma.

Environmental scientists are now concerned about the reported presence of asbestos fiber in water and food products. However, most of them consider the brief and transient exposures to be of no consequence and therefore do not treat this as a potent risk factor.
