Did you understand that there are particular foods that could cause bad breath? This is due to volatile sulfur compounds - the reason in causing bad breath!
For instance, if food sits out very long it will go bad. That spoiling activity is because of anaerobic bacteria breaking down proteins in that particular food. In milk, the odor of sour milk is caused by relatives of the bugs which produce halitosis when they decompose proteins in the milk (and essentially in most dairy foods). A reaction occurs where' the bad breath or halitosis bugs' extract sulfur compounds from the amino acids in these proteins. Particularly, the amino acid Cysteine is converted to Hydrogen Sulfide (which has a rotten egg smell Methionine and) becomes Methyl Mercaptan (which has the aroma of a cross between old socks and garlic). The exact same analogy applies to meat in case it sits out too long.
Everyone has learned that onions and garlic can create bad breath. But would you know exactly why? It is because the odorous molecules in onions and garlic are actually sulfur compounds themselves known as Mercaptans. Sulfur is nature's way of making odors. You're all experienced with the skunk. Its odor prodentim reviews consumer reports is produced by a defense and/or attack mechanism. Skunk smell is comprised of skatoles, which are ever-present sulfur compounds. In a similar fashion, bacteria in the mouth of yours creates the volatile sulfur compounds of bad flavor and breath problems.

imageAt this time there are four food categories which will result in a rise of sulfur production because these categories have a stimulating affect on the bacteria that create poor breath:
1. Drying Agents
2. Thick Protein Foods
3. Sugars
4. Sour Foods
