Hi there!
Bad breath is more common than most people realize and the solution often starts with simple, plant-forward habits. Halitosis can stem from dry mouth, oral bacteria or digestion, but supporting your body naturally can make a big difference.
Staying hydrated keeps your mouth from drying out and gently cleaning your tongue removes the odor-causing bacteria that often linger there. A plant-rich diet also plays a huge role, crunchy vegetables like cucumbers, celery, carrots and leafy greens help naturally cleanse the mouth, while fiber supports smoother digestion overall. Fermented plant foods, like sauerkraut and kimchi can help balance gut bacteria, which may also reduce internal sources of odor.
Look for alcohol-free rinses too, since alcohol can dry the mouth and worsen breath.
Small, steady shifts in your routine can support fresher breath and a healthier, more vibrant you.
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
