jaynedeath 1 Posted February 9, 2014 Since my sleeve I've been struggling with bad breath. I am religious about my oral hygiene and I am disgusted by my breath. Is anyone else dealing with this? 1 SandeeD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lynn2win 142 Posted February 9, 2014 Now I do watch this crazy lady name Joan Rivers and I remember her making a job about how she could tell me one of the Hollywood people were on a diet because their breath smelled horrible...it could be the lack of carbs or water...ANY VETS care to chime in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magtart 603 Posted February 9, 2014 It's because your body is in ketosis. It happens on a very low carb diet. You can google it for all the science. Listerine Breath Strips for the win! 2 SandeeD and LuminousLife reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuminousLife 145 Posted February 9, 2014 I think it had something to do with being in Ketosis. Mine got better after about 1 & 1/2 months. There are special mouthwashes you can use. I just keep tic tacs on me. Sometimes gum even though I'm not supposed to have gum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schmincke 118 Posted February 9, 2014 I agree - ketosis. My oral hygiene is super good and I just had a cleaning - but my breath is awful whenever I go into ketosis (which is often). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
