Bad breath is a source of many problems – it causes discomfort, exposes you to social ostracism, but it can also mean serious health problems. Dr. Ula Leończak explains why it is worth consulting a doctor instead of treating it on your own.
Halitosis affects over 80 percent of the population – both women and men.
This dangerous disease is often underestimated.
What should daily prevention look like?
Doctor Leończak advises: take care of oral hygiene (brush your teeth at least twice a day, use dental floss), change your diet (avoid strongly flavored and spicy products, include probiotic yogurts, fennel, parsley, anise, cinnamon in your diet), quit smoking, and instead of coffee or alcohol – drink a few liters of water a day and mint tea, which helps moisturize the mucous membrane and freshen breath.
