(Newswire.net — December 21, 2016) Orlando, FL — Medically known as halitosis, bad breath usually results from poor dental health habits. There are commercially available products that are thought to be useful in fighting this condition. There are also certain alternatives such as green tea that have the potential to help bad breath sufferers.

A study finds that green tea may be useful in fighting bad breath. There are certain types of foods that can worsen bad breath. When food starts to break down in the mouth, it is then digested. Once it is absorbed in the bloodstream, it is then routed to the lungs, which cause odor to be given off in one’s breath.

There are food items with strong odors such as onions and garlic that may worsen the condition. There are products and methods, such as using mouth wash, brushing, and flossing that may help. However, they appear to be temporarily covering up the odor.

Certain poor habits may also cause bad breath. For instance, individuals who do not floss or brush their teeth on a daily basis are more susceptible to the condition. Food particles that are left in the mouth could promote bacterial growth around the gums, between the teeth, and on the tongue.

There are certain health problems linked with the development of bad breath such as gum disease, yeast infections, and dry mouth. There are other illnesses linked with the condition such as postnasal drip, pneumonia, diabetes, and kidney problems.

According to scientific research, green tea may potentially help beat bad breath. This beverage is believed to contain antioxidants called polyphenols, which are thought to destroy many compounds in the mouth that cause bad breath, tooth decay, as well as mouth cancer.

More and more scientists are actually calling for more studies to address the increasing interest in the use of green tea for oral health.

Bad breath is not a life-threatening condition, however, it may place sufferers in an embarrassing situation. One of the disadvantages of using commercially-available products formulated to fight the condition is that they may sometimes contain harmful substances.

An increasing number of people are turning to the use of natural alternatives in fighting a range of conditions, including bad breath. Green tea is believed to be one of the most potentially therapeutic beverages today.

Green tea can be consumed in the form of beverages and also through supplementation. There are supplements such as resveratrol, which is also thought to be a powerful antioxidant that contains green tea extracts.

Resveratrol with extracts of green tea, red wine, acai fruit, and grape seed is extremely popular today.
