Your Breath: More Than Just a Way to Annoy People — What It Might Be Telling You About Your Health!

Medication

Some meds can turn your breath into something less than fresh by drying out your mouth, leaving bacteria to throw a party. But that's not all—certain drugs, like nitrates for heart conditions, chemotherapy for cancer, and some sleep aids, release chemicals that can leave your breath smelling like you’ve been sucking on a science experiment. Even popping too many vitamins can contribute to the funky flavor! So, if your breath is acting up, it might be time to chat with your doctor about your prescription mix.
