Bad Breath, Sour/Bitter Metallic Tastes & Dry Mouth

Their relationship to Post Nasal Drip, Mucous, Sinus Problems, Tonsils and Tonsiloliths

by Dr. Harold Katz

The bacteria which cause bad breath and sour/bitter/metallic tastes are anaerobic sulfur-producing. Their goal in life is to break down the proteins in foods that we eat. However, under certain conditions, they will start to break down proteins in mucous and phlegm.

Therefore, those people who suffer with post nasal drip, sinus problems, etc are more prone to bad breath and lousy tastes because the bacteria will start to extract sulfur compounds from the amino acids that make up these proteins.

Scientifically, they "love" the amino acids Cysteine and Methionine, which are common

to mucous (and phlegm) and also in dairy foods. In fact, many people notice that when they drink too much milk or eat too much cheese they end up with more mucous or phlegm in their throat. This is a natural reaction for many people and unfortunately, ends up causing more bad breath and lousy taste.

If you still have your tonsils, you may be harboring a higher number of the bacteria which can lead to an "interesting" and misunderstood phenomenon, called TONSILOLITHS. Literally, they are "tonsil stones" produced by the conglomeration of mucous draining down the back of the throat and volatile sulfur compounds produced by the bacteria which easily end up in the "nooks and crannies" of the tonsils, every time one swallows.

Here's a home therapy told to me by many of my patients. They claim it works wonders in overcoming this annoying and troubling problem:

1. They create the AktivOxigen Solution by using 1-2 of the AktivOxigen tablets and placing them in the 8 oz. bottle that comes with it. They then add plain tap water.

2. They swallow 1-2 capfuls during the day. Some say it works best 1st thing in the morning, others say it works best right before bedtime - to avoid morning breath. Others do it during the day.

3. Most patients also place a few of the Nasal-Sinus Drops in their nostrils. These drops penetrate the nose and sinus area and reach the bacteria hiding in places that are otherwise impossible to get to from the mouth.

Because the oxygenating solution passes directly over the subjected area, they feel a cleansing action, that they could not otherwise get by rinsing or gargling. Because the drops penetrate their sinuses the 'bad breath smell' from their nose is gone.
