"This is Rachael with Nutrolution in Miami Beach, Florida. In this clip we're talking about how to eliminate bad breath using nutrition. Now bad breath is one of these things, and it's referred to medically as halitosis, and it actually stems from too much toxins or too much toxicity in the system. So, for example, one thing that I've worked with, well, just I guess going back to the original point here is that if we can actually remove some of the different toxic foods that we're consuming, which by and large are all the sugars, all the processed foods, any chemicals that come into your diet through something like diet soda or even diet flavors at Starbucks or coffee itself, all of these things add stress to the liver and then the liver has to work harder and we get different sorts of toxicity symptoms including odors and bad breath. One thing that I found out by using a certain form of garlic is that garlic supplements is that people when they initially start taking garlic they experience much more bad breath from garlic, yet as they continue to work down the amount of microbes in their system, microbes produce toxins that the liver then has to clear out. As they start to reduce the toxic load, their liver is actually able to then be freed up to convert that odorous compound in garlic into something that doesn't smell odorous at all, and the garlic flavor and odor from the breath resolves. So these are just some ways to help with bad breath and this has been Rachael from Nutrolution in Miami Beach, Florida."
