Breath smells like faeces (Poo)

You have more bad bacteria than good bacteria in your mouth causing all sorts of smell depending on what you've eaten. Take a oral probiotic morning and before bed. Open capsule and put on tongue swivel all inside mouth and don't swallow, drink or eat for 1/2 hour in morning. The longer probiotic is in mouth the more it will overpower the bad smelly germs and get your mouth balanced to no smell at all. Depending on how bad your breath this can take time but at least each day breath will be better than day before. I like probiotics for dental health better than the gut ones so you will have to order online. Meanwhile use the gut ones at whole foods. GoodLuck.

I have tried pro biotics. I've tried everything really. I've had this problem since I was a child, I think it's genetic, my sister has the same problem. I am currently making milk kefir after reading a book suggested on this discussion forum. I have been drinking it for a couple of months now but last week I was at a playgroup with my baby and mums kept sniffing their babies nappies when I was talking to them so I know the kefir hasn't helped yet. It's actually making me really mucusy. 

I haven't been to a gi doctor, I've never even heard of one. My next thing will be fermented vegetables and kombucha. 

I completely agree with the bacterial overload. Bacterial is a living thing, and every living thing must eat. And whatever eats also grows...and then poops. We need to mount an all out assault on the bacteria to solve the problem.

I've spent over a decade sourcing the problem; trying to find the root of this massive tree to which to lay the axe, and I think I've finally done that and want as many people to know about it as possible.

So without spamming my first post in this discussion, I'd like you (including Loob, guest, and anyone else following this discussion) to check out my reply to mike666 in his discussion:

Suffice it to say, Loob I think your milk kefir is exasperating your problem significantly...but let me know what you think about my research and solution, in this discussion; and whether you disagree with it or would like more detail.

All the best!

Did you have tonsil stones? Therabreath did not work for me. I tried all thier products. Smart mouth mouthwash help a few hrs.

I was so disappointed that it didn't work for me as it is very extreme thing to do and more painful when an adult. I was in my early 30's when I got the op. I'm now 41.

I think that people on this forum have poo breath for different reasons. There are definately people who sound the same as me, I believe it is hereditary as my sister has it too. She doesn't care though. I am the one who has spent over 20 years trying to find a cure and has spent a fortune on products and clinics. She just accepts it. I wish I could just accept it but it's hard. I can be ok until my son asks me if I farted or my niece tells me I stink. Kids are the only ones who are honest and are a true measure for finding out if your breath smells.

Don't be put off getting your tonsils removed as it may work for you, I don't regret it as I would always be thinking it was causing my bb if I hadn't got them removed.

The only relief I get from bb is by sucking chewable vit c tablets, high strength ones. God knows what it's doing to my body but I think it helps while you suck them. I have about 6 a day if I am out with my husband or friends and it makes me feel better. Could be in my head. Good luck with your op. Loobs.

I'm 42 single and no boyfriend because of my halitosisis. I'm tired of it. Getting my tonsil stones is my last option.

Dairy products are worse for bad Breath. Spicy foods also.

Have u been to gastroenterologist or seen a periodontitis? I have and was told Evetythinh is normal. Pls tell me what else your doin to prevent bb. Thanks

Recently I started making kefir as it is really high in pro biotics but i think the fact it is made with milk didn't help me so I stopped making it.

I really don't think my bb comes from my stomach, I think it's genetic and its just bad luck. I think it's from my mouth because if my mouth is closed the smell doesnt come out my nose. I think I'm just stuck with it. If some doctor could just find a cure they could make a fortune. I know I would pay to cure it! I haven't tried digestive enzymes yet so will try that next.

Thank you so much for talking to me. It seems like we have a very similar case. All my family have BB except one brother, hes so lucky! My sister is kinda done finding the cure coz nothing help. I do not want to give up, im tired of living alone with no friends and boyfriend because of my BB.

Like you I have a healthy gum, good oral hygine and all. Seen GI doctor and periodontist. Next is to see a ENT doctor. After reading your story, i think I will just go see an ENT to have my tonsil stones remove, if I even have one who knows. I will keep u update after my visit to ENT. Do you know how much it cost to see an ENT?

I just went to the store and bought something to experiment. I will let you know if this will work. I will mak emy own mouthwash: hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and water. That will be my mouthwash. I will try it tomorrow

Thank you and please keep in touch!

i carry a water bottle the has about 10 drops of tea tree oil with me and swish it around my mouth like 5 min while i drive. i think this helps a bit but idk how much n how long. a dentist told me today its not my mouth but my digestion that's the problem.

firs, mj its kk i understand. i just didnt wanna write so much all over again becuse im doing my best to give u all all the info i learned. yes i only brush with oil. i only use toothpaste whe im in a hurry.

Everyone. today i got major relief from gagling with biotene mouthwash while counting to 100 and taking 200 mil of chloriphyll(spelling?) after my meals also i ate raw kale and i think this helped too. ima add it to my everyday diet. im not sure if the chloryphyll is helping. it think it the mouth wash. now things werent perfect but i noticed the reastions i got from people were reduced by at least 50%. it got worse hen i drank juice so avoid sugar n super sweet food

i know may of us think mouthwashes wont work and they didnt used to for me. i think this is now working because of the long time and during my gargling i get a new mouthful of mouthwash every 25-30 seconds. i think the man rinses hels too. many try this with the mouth wash u have a home n see what happens. also, while gargling, make sure to tilt ur head back and stick ur tongue out as far as possible to get the mouthwash to the very back where it is needed.

good luck guys

Did u read someone's post on here about a worm? We might have worm?

Right now I'm taking meds + enzyme + probiotic and gargle with tea tree oil plus only eat apple for fruit and veggies. I'm seeing result so I'm happy. But I'm still curious about the worm, worm must be the problem. I don't know if I have worm and what med to take to flush the worm 😪

Thank you Pixiepez for being patient with me 👊

what meds r u taking? and wheat enzyme r u taking too?

i read to get rid of worms u can take one teaspoon of castor oil for one week then increase by one teaspoon each week until ur taking 3 teaspoons. this ought to get rid of them

do stop the tea tree oil since it works. i dont want u buying more products than u have to. but u can try it out if u want. i gave my oil to my friend and i read about the biotene which is why i switched. but ima go buy some tea tree oil today

I am taking a regular super digestive enzyme bought it at GNC here in the US. I take enzyme and probiotic + ttoil and vegan diet. Today a ate a few berries and the smells came back on instantly 😂. It's frustrating that I cannot eat normal food like other people do. I'm so sick of my BB. Sometimes I wish I'm dead 😢😢

i registered just to say i would date you!

you'll want to commit suicide, if you smell my breath accidentally. i brush two times a day, floss everyday, using expensive sensodyne, 250 dollar electronic toothbrush, my teeths are white and clean as hell. even just 5sec after brush, my breath still smells like poop.

my brother or sis, no hygiene, never brush in the night, didn't flossed in years, never went to the dentist, sometime my bro doesn't even brush in the morning and goes to office without brush, he just drink a coffee, all set. ready for the day, he can kiss anyone in the morning, no prob.

in contrast, if someone talk to me, without i am chewing a listerine tablet, they'll wish for death.

none of gf stayed max 1 month with me, 2 weeks is normal. this is just pathetic, unfair
