what home remedy can you use to help cure/control halitosis?


Question:


Answers:
It is believed that bad breath is caused by anaerobic bacteria under the surface of the tongue. These bacteria thrive only in an oxygen poor, acidic environment. Because of this, two separate things need to be accomplished. First, add oxygen. Second, reduce acidity.

To add oxygen: use hydrogen peroxide as a mouthwash. (use one part hydrogen peroxide (3%), and one part salty water)

To reduce acidity: use baking soda as a toothpaste. (use three parts baking soda, to one part salt)

This simple two step process has been found very effective by many bad breath sufferers.
