Embarrassing? yeah it can really make you feel like an alien in a group. The root cause of Halitosis ( Bad Breath) Generally, bad breath originates from gums and tongue. It can also take birth from stomach but its very unlikely. The bacteria from decay of food particles is mainly responsible for abhorrent smell. Other reasons can be poor oral hygiene or debris left in mouth. This decay process produces a sulphur compound which produces unpleasant odour. How to keep a check on bad breath? .

| | Constipation and ToxicityWritten by Rudy Silva
Having regular constipation can lead to some serious illnesses. Fecal matter should move through your colon easily and in a given time. When fecal matter remains in your colon for days, your colon becomes toxic and spreads this toxicity into every part of body. In bloodstream, these toxins interfere with deliver of oxygen to cells and tissues of your body.If you have to strain and squeeze to have a bowel movement, you can damage tissues in lower part of your colon and blood vessels in your legs. In Past Over 90 years ago and more, doctors knew about importance of a clean colon. In 1908 Eli Metchnifoff, director of Pasteur Institute, was awarded Nobel Prize for Medicine. His research showed that pathogenic colon bacteria, bad bacteria (I will cover this in a later chapter) produced toxic secretions and by products, which acted as slow poisoning of entire body. Metchnifoff believed that toxic matter coming from your colon was responsible for every degenerating disease. His belief was so strong that he suggested that man’s life span was certainly cut in half when his colon was neglected and allowed to have excessive toxic producing bacteria. In 1931 Dr. Joseph H. Greer, was telling his patients what to do to end constipation and how to prevent it. Today, nutritionists and other health practitioners are telling their clients same thing. In his small book, The Drugless Road to Perfect Health, 1931, Joseph H. Greer, M.D. reminds his patients, “You must have ‘roughage’ to make bowels move freely. Concentrated food (processed foods) and constipation go hand in hand, (and) then pills (laxatives) are used. More constipation and more pills, it is a vicious circle with bad results. Don’t be afraid of cracked wheat, cornmeal, cut oats, raw cabbage, onions and celery. They are far better than refined flour and package foods that flood market. They may save some labor in kitchen, but they produce constipation.”
