PATIENT-I am 38 years and I’m suffering from bad breath. I take Metrogel 400 mg which helped me for a month or so but the problem has reoccurred.  I would like to get rid of this problem once and for all.  Kindly help.

SUGGESTED SOLUTIONS-

Bad breath or Halitosis can occur due to dental causes following tooth decay or gum disease or it can be due to stomach issues with bad digestion. Bad breath can also be caused due to chronic nose congestion or chronic sinusitis. It can be addressed by looking into the origin of bad breath. Cleaning the teeth with a dental floss twice a day and cleaning tongue would be helpful. Taking lot of fresh fruits and vegetables will aid in digestion and clear the bowels.

Ayurveda

Take Kalyana gulam 1 tablespoon at bed time daily for 3 months. Use thriphala water to gargle (boil 1 glass of water with ½ tsp thriphala powder in it for 5 mins.) filter cool and use.

Naturopathy

Bad breath is mainly because of  unhealthy digestive system. You have to undergo a complete detoxification

Homeopathy

Medicines like Merc sol, Carbo veg, Nux vomica, Acid nitricum etc can be used after consultation with a homeopathic doctor.
