Bad breath forms from odor causing bacteria in the mouth. It can be caused by not brushing your teeth properly, tooth decay, eating certain foods, infections and gum disease. However, besides grabbing for that stick of gum, try a healthier alternative. Some options are: chewing mint leaves or parsley, gargling with baking soda in warm water, drinking lemon water or pineapple juice, eating apples daily, eating foods that are rich in zinc, and simply brushing your teeth after every meal.

Bad breath is bad, but you don’t have to mask it with mints. Healthier alternatives help clean the mouth getting rid of odor instead of masking it with sugar.
