We all would have experienced inflammation at some point of time in our lives.
Our body has got its own way of saying that something is not right. That is a normal part of our body`s response to infection etc and this is termed as inflammation. For example, after eating certain foods we might get an achy red swollen feeling etc. It is okay to get inflammation once in a while but persistent inflammation must never be ignored. It is noteworthy that chronic inflammation that could last for many months or years is associated with diabetes and cardiovascular disease etc. This chronic inflammation in us could be due to foods and dietary habits that would disturb the gut microbes.
These are the unhealthy eating habits that can lead to inflammation in us.
Intake of too much of processed foods:
There are possibilities of developing inflammation if we eat excess processed foods like burgers, candies, potato chips etc. It was brought out by a research study in 2022 that intake of excessive amounts of processed foods could lead to inflammation in us. It is learnt that regular intake of ultra processed foods having refined ingredients and additives etc would disrupt the functioning of the digestive system.
Intake of excess amounts of sugars:
One important question would be how much sugar is too much sugar. It has been mentioned in the research study in 2022 that excessive intake of sugars can lead to heart disease, diabetes, IBD, low grade inflammation etc. Point is that triggering the levels of inflammatory messengers or cytokines would occur due to excessive intake of sugary foods etc. So, please take care.
Excluding vegetables and fibres from diet:
It is true that if a person has more inflammation then his or her body would require more vegetables and fibres etc. It was revealed by a research work in 2018 that higher fruit and vegetable intake would reduce pro-inflammatory mediators. It is possible to fight inflammation if we eat a balanced diet of proteins and fibres etc.
Consuming excess amounts of gluten:
Wheat and grains etc have gluten in them. There are some people who are gluten sensitive while others can consume gluten without any issue. It must be taken into note that this gluten sensitivity can lead to inflammation or kind of swelling in the body when persons have autoimmune disease and gut problems etc. Please be careful.
Consuming excess amounts of alcohol:
We could get chronic inflammation if we drink alcohol in excess amounts. It was published in the Journal Alcohol Research that regular intake of alcohol is associated with intestinal inflammation. Not only that, there might be unfavourable changes in the gut microbiome.

Imagine you are in a meeting with your boss and other office colleagues etc. You find it difficult to open your mouth and talk freely due to the bad odour present in your mouth. Embarrassing situation right!!
The fact is for 25% of the population bad breath could be a chronic issue. Bad breath can be embarrassing and worrisome for us. Having bad breath is one of the most important reasons for many persons seeking dental care. Bad breath is also known as halitosis.
Though in most cases, bad breath could be treated but it could also indicate a more serious issue in us. By knowing the cause for bad breath, we would be able to eliminate this issue.
Several important reasons or causes for having bad breath are
Poor home care:
This is one important cause for the bad breath problem in us. It is true that we all have mouth bacteria and it could result in bad breath in us. By practising good home oral hygiene, we can remove the mouth bacteria. It is worthy to note that brushing and flossing well could help us to eliminate mouth bacteria and help us to avoid bad breath issues. In other words, poor home oral care would lead to tooth decay or infection and this could further result in bad odour in the mouth.
Gum disease:
Despite brushing our teeth well, we might still have bad breath in the mouth. The reason for that is due to gum disease. It would not be possible for us to just brush and floss the bacteria from the mouth if we have gum disease. The reason for that is because bacteria might be hiding under the gums and it cannot be reached by brush etc. The bad smell in the mouth would be present till gum disease gets treated.
Dry mouth:
We could get bad breath in the mouth if we have dry mouth or xerostomia. It must be taken into account that saliva is a natural way to wash our mouths throughout the day. When saliva reduces, a bad smell occurs in the mouth.
Smoking:
Smoking cigarettes can lead to both bad breath as well as periodontal disease. We could get dry mouth by smoking also. Sometimes, smoking continuously would reduce taste and smell etc and due to this we would be able to recognise bad breath.
Diet:
It is true that consuming certain foods like onions and garlic etc can lead to bad breath issues in us. Intake of low carb didiet or keto diet etc can lead to bad smell in the mouth.
Medications:
Not many would be aware of the fact that certain medications such as nitrates, phenothiazines etc can result in bad breath.
Medical problems:
We could get bad breath issues if we have mouth, nose and throat conditions like chronic sinus, allergy etc. Bad breath can also be due to serious problems like cancer, liver failure, GERD etc
