Is there a natural cure for bad breath?

Natural cures come in various forms from vitamins, to herbs, to Chinese medicines, to homeopathy, to detox programs.

Many natural cures are based on the same principles of finding the root of the problem and curing that.

If the cause of the bad breath is an overgrowth of bacteria, then the natural cure would be to look at ways of boosting the immune system, allowing the body to re-balance the bacteria in the mouth (or elsewhere). Depending on the therapist, this can be done with vitamins, herbs, acupuncture, homeopathy and many others!

If the cause of the bad breath was an accumulation of toxins, then the naturopathic way of looking at this would be to detox the body. There are many ways of detoxing the body from a change in diet to cleansing herbs.

If the cause of the bad breath was associated with a vitamin deficiency, then a nutritionalist would recommend a change in diet as well as some vitamin supplements.
