As far as I know the foods that cause bad breath are foods that contain smelly compounds, such as garlic, etc. We also know that when people diet that their breath does contain compounds (by product of fat metobolism) that smell, these are called ketones. However, most bad breath comes from the bacteria that grow on the top of the tongue. In order to control bad breath these bacteria must be removed. Mints, gums, mouthwash just covers up bad breath for a short time. It is like trying to get rid of body odor by using perfume. Good orall hygiene includes brushing and flossing the teeth and then cleaning the tongue with a high quality tongue cleaner. Use one that is both a brush and a scraper so the bacteria that is in the deep indentations of the tongue will be removed.
