Nutrition Facts & Diet
Advice for Halitosis
The following nutrition guidelines should be
followed:
-
Eat at least 50% of
your diet raw for at least a week.
(If
you have spent years eating the ‘meat and two veg’ type diet, you may
need to work up to this gradually and get your body used to raw food)
-
Follow
the
Four Week Cleanse using
Psyllium Husks and Bentonite Clay, together with a Colon Cleansing
preparation.
-
Avoid
strong-smelling foods such as strong cheeses, anchovies, garlic, spicy
processed meats, and tin fish, as well as beer, whisky and wine.
-
Brush
your teeth and tongue after every meal and use dental floss every day.
-
Change
your toothbrush every few weeks and store in grapefruit juice extract (see
below) to kill germs on the toothbrush.
-
Avoid
using commercial mouthwashes; these can make the problem worse in the long
run.
