Hi Andy --- why not try daily oil pulling with organic sesame oil? EC has a large section on it.
If you have had root canals, it could be a cause. Otherwise get good probiotics for the GE tract.
Also during the day chew one head of the clove spice. You could oil pull twice a day making sure it is with sesame oil according to Ayurveda. Other oils are not so effective. Do it at least for twenty minutes and check it out on EC. All the best. Namaste, Om

I've read many good reviews about parsley for bad breath. If you don't care for the taste of the fresh parsley leaves, you could try it in supplement form. The supplement form is very inexpensive, too.Replied by Andy (Dubai(u.a.e)) on 07/31/2014
Dear Om,
thank you so much for your reply. I have started doing oil pulling with sesame oil its been 4 days with little very little effect. Am also brushing with baking soda and gargle when I put my finger on back of my tongue and and smell the saliva it smells bad so I think it with the mouth only. otherwise am all fit and healthy. What about hydrogen peroxide, can I try that? Kindly advice.

Andy from Dubai ----- With all these natural treatments you have to have patience. Four days is nothing. Meanwhile chew the clove pods, not the stems, during the day. OP will detoxify in its own time. You can also use a tongue scraper after oil pulling or simply use a teaspoon for this. We all need to detoxify in this poisoned world and it takes patience and perseverance.
You could have an examination re ear, nose, throat or dental examination to make sure all is well. Stay away from dairy and foods that you have not prepared yourself. eat lots of fresh organic produce and drink lots of clean water.
Namaste, Om

hi, tried oil pulling for 1 month; my bad breath has become worse.. now the smell is coming from mouth and nose.. it's humiliating. please suggest what to do...Replied by Tineacured (India) on 09/06/2014
Simplest is to consume green tea. You can also gargle with it.
The fastest is the CDS/MMS or chlorine-di-oxide solution. Some mouthwashes also contain this.Replied by Cynthia (Holland, Mi (USA)) on 12/11/2017
Hi Andy, you may have dry sinuses. I have them. Oil pulling is good. I also line my nostrils with oil, and I rinse my nose using a Neti pot. I'm not cured, but these things do help me. I encourage you to try.
