Home Remedies -- Bad Breath

Americans spend several million dollars every year on products designed to prevent or cure halitosis or bad breath. We would all like to have breath that is fresh as a morning breeze at all times, but that is not something that is even possible.
When we eat and drink the food and beverages leave or cause odors in our mouths. Of course, not all bad breath comes from the mouth. Many times bad breath originates in the stomach.
Long before the first breath mint or bottle of mouth wash was a glimmer in the eyes of an entrepreneur, people had bad breath and a desire to be rid of it.
Of course you can contribute to the billion-dollar industry of breath freshening by buying products to freshen your breath or you can use some simple and very effective (not to mention cheap or even free) home remedies that will accomplish the very same thing. Parsley is an herb that freshens the breath. Did you think they garnish dinner plates with it just to make them pretty? Oh, no, the parsley is there for you to eat after you have finished the meal. It will remove all traces of odors from the food that has just been ingested.
Mint leaves are another natural home remedy for doing away with bad breath. The breath freshening industry makes use of a lot of mint leaves.
They are combined with a lot of other ingredients like sugar or artificial sweeteners that aren't that good for us, packaged really cute, advertised to the max, and sold to us. Chewing mint leaves will accomplish exactly the same thing and for almost no cost and certainly no added ingredients that just aren't good for us.
You can add a couple of drops of tea tree oil to your regular tooth paste on your tooth brush to prevent bad breath for many additional hours.
