bad breath from the gut

"Juicing helps you absorb
all the nutrients from the vegetables.
This is important because most of us have
impaired digestion
as a result of making
less-than-optimal food choices
over many years."
- Dr. Mercola

"Bad breath may emanate from
the back of the throat due to sinus or tonsil infections
resulting in excess bacteria.
If you have sinus or throat problems
you may well have some form of allergy...

The stomach
is also an area that causes
bad breath problems
for many people.

Poor digestion,
constipation,
or
bowel disorders
may create
gas
which exits the mouth.

Not enough hydrochloric acid in the stomach
may cause poor digestion,
so undigested food will pass into the intestines,
putrefy
and give off foul gas
which rises up and
causes bad breath.

This problem is quite common
with older people whose body does not produce
enough hydrochloric acid naturally
to aid the digestion process.

Another common digestive problem is due to
the imbalance
of good
and
bad bacteria in the gut.
Food won't be digested properly
and
the result can be acid reflux,
yeast overgrowth,
or fermentation.
One of the byproducts of this problem is
bad breath.

To correct this imbalance,
use a probiotic"

Almost everyone I know has bad breath.
Everyone I know, everyone I meet, unless they're chewing gum to 'mask' the odor,
just stink
out-the-mouth.

I'm not talking about after-a-meal-food-breath.
I'm talking stink-from-the-inside-of-the-gut breath
that smells like a combination of
stale attic air and fart.

I swear sometimes I think that's my deep-down reason for not being in a relationship.
I HATE to be downwind of anyone's breath.
I feel trapped, like I'm going to suffocate.
Even if they chew gum or mints,
once the candy or gum is gone the stomach stink makes it's way up to their mouth again
and attacks my nose.
Blech.

Hey,
I have bad breath.
I know I have bad breath.

It's difficult to smell one's own breath,
but I do get that stinky,
stale attic, backfire of my own breath sometimes and
YUK!

I just take for granted that I have bad breath all the time.
You'll never catch me in a social situation without a purse full of mints
and Listerine Breath Strips.

If I'm not sucking on a mint or chewing gum or something when I meet you?
Chances are I don't like you,
therefore I don't care if my stink-from-the-gut reaches your nose.

Why my rant about bad breath?

I'm taking a big step today.

I'm putting my microwave and my toaster-oven at the curb outside my mother's house.
The microwave and toaster oven
take up precious counter space in the kitchen of my little garden apartment.

In their place I'm putting my beautiful, new juicer.
I've had it a little over 2 years and I've never used it.

I always have an excuse like:
it's too expensive to buy fresh vegetables
or
it's too much work to wash and chop all those veggies
or
washing the juicer is too much work
or
I have no counter space!

Or my perfectionism stops me.
If I don't buy organic I tell myself it's not worth the trouble
even though I DO buy and eat
frozen
or
canned vegetables all the time as if they had any real nutrition in them.

In the meantime, I'm aging.
I'm dying.
I'm putrefying from the inside out.

I'm so sick of having low energy.
I'm so sick of allergies.
I'm so sick of dull, non-glowing skin
and
I'm really sick of worrying about my bad breath.

With gastric bypass we post-ops suffer all kinds of intestinal stinkage.
It's a mess inside our guts.

Taking vitamins may not be enough to nourish us.
Vitamin pills take a whole lotta digestive work in order to get any benefits from them.
Vitamin pills don't carry fresh enzymes with them.

The vitamins listed on the labels of foods are not necessarily there. They've been cooked, homogenized, pasteurized, preservative-ized and processed past the point of being usable.

Most of us walk around in a dehydrated,
malnourished,
digestive-ly unbalanced,
bad breath-y,
gassy,
state
then we wonder why we're sluggish and sickly all the time.

I can't stand it any longer.

I feel like crap.

I'm not enjoying life the way I could be.

I need some f*ckin' thing.

I'm tired of dead foods and dead energy.
I want life.

Energy,
vibrancy,
glowing,
nourished,
balanced
nutritional health
will most likely make me more capable of joy.

I'm willing to make some big life changes in order to get that healthy joy.

Out with the crappy microwave and toaster oven (appliances I used to prepare dead, preserved, crappy foods)
and in with the juicer!!

Vitamin pills or fresh juice?
Although there are benefits to taking vitamin pills,
they're not ALIVE.
Fresh juice is full of living enzymes.
Make it and drink it IMMEDIATELY while the enzymes are
still living!
