It's incredibly sad to read about other people's experiences. One of the tragedy of this condition is that you have to rely on other people's often rude gestures to know that your breath is smelling because I have never in my entire life smelled it myself, so it is impossible for me to monitor it, in order to do anything that could help. Many people are ignorant about this condition and because it only affects such as small minority of people (most peoples bad breath is due to poor oral hygiene) it's impossible for it to be related to my teeth and gums when everyone else (my ex-husband and kids spend about 4 mins brushing their teeth and don't have this problem and I sometimes spend more than 20 mins and still is said to have poo breath, so for those who don't not understand this condition, please stop referring to anything that may be due to cleaning the mouth... It appears to be an unknown condition and if it is not well known or only affects a few people the medical professionals tend to deny that it, although my doctor recently, for the first time, explained that it is fermentation of feces in the colon emitting a type of smell coming-up the gastrointestinal system, but it appears not to be a well known condition... I feel so exhausted living with this condition, and it breaks my heart when I read some of the other people's experiences with this condition. Unless we talk about it, ignorance will continue to prevail and others will continue to see us a dirty, stinking individuals rather than victims of a hideous medical problem...

Understand this. The only possible reason for anything to smell bad is because of bacteria, correct? "Bad" bacteria gives off a hideous odor, as we all know. So what is the only logical explanation to get rid of the bad bacteria? To ingest as much "good" bacteria as possible, each and every day.

My last post explained exactly how to do that.

So if you haven't tried eating fermented foods and ingesting a potent probiotic supplement, I urge you to do so immediately. If you don't at least give it a shot for at least a month, then you are your own problem. Quit thinking about doing it and just DO IT.

 

 This sound like a great suggestion. I will definitely try the VSL3 probiotics and fermented food.

Thank you!!!!

Hi there,

I am interested to know if your problem with poo breath ever returned after the appendix removal. You are the only one I have ever heard mention appendix as a possible cause and it is very interesting because of the pain in the side you speak of. Does anyone else with the poo breath problem have that symptom?

 

I've read many of these posts and disagree with a lot of them. I have had this problem for years with no luck in curing it. I have had several sinus infections and because they are almost impossible to cure no matter how long you're on antibiotics or nasal sprays. I thought the horrible smell was from my mouth but it has nothing to do with the inside of my mouth itself. The smell is from the mucus that drains or suppose to drain down the back of your throat except mine does not. It collects and dries at night time and by morning smells like hell. I use an herbal spray to soften soit starts to move then I find myself spitting a hundred times in the sink until most has drained it's disgusting! I stay away from anything which contains salt solution as it dries your nose out plus the mucus takes on the smell of the solution. I recently found a product called Sinna at the health food store which prevents the mucus from taking on that nasty salty taste that makes you gag. This is for chrinic sinusitis and found it has helped restore the walls on the inside of my nose which were always raw. It losens the mucus and helps to drain and eliminating that smell which we all know is bacteria from a sinus infection you can never completely get rid of. I will be seeing a plastic surgeon to see if fixing my deviated septum will help my sinuses drain properly to prevent the buildup.
