Bad Breath: What You Don't Know About It by drlizzy(f): 5:41pm On Feb 06, 2009
Bad breath is a medical concern. It is definitely not a simple physical occurrence like you think it is. It is a condition that could root anywhere from poor oral hygiene to being a symptom of a certain disease. It may also be caused by the medicine you're taking or the foods that you love eating.

Nobody wants to associate with a person who has bad breath. It is common courtesy to keep your breath fresh at all times, regardless if you intend to talk to anyone or not. Bad breath is a big turn-off. People who suffer from it will have a hard time keeping friends.

Therefore, you have to be fully conscious of how your breath smells. You have to be careful of the things you eat, as well as your hygienic habits. Technically defined, bad breath is halitosis. It is a medical condition wherein your mouth emits a very unpleasant odor.

Generally speaking, bad breath is caused by the accumulation of bacteria in the mouth. This is why regular brushing and flossing is very important. The foods that you eat may directly cause bad breath as well. You should watch eating pungent food items if you can't brush your teeth or at least rinse with a strong mouthwash right after.
While people around you may keep to themselves the scent of your breath, it is still a very embarrassing ordeal for you once you discover that you have it. While you might turn to the habit of smoking to temporarily mask out bad breath, doing so is not a good idea because smoking could trigger this condition as well.

There are a lot of quick fixes and permanent solution to bad breath these days. If you want to try any of them, you must evaluate the process first to make sure that you're choosing what's best for you.

Bad odor originates from the back of the mouth. Unlike popular belief, it doesn't come from the throat. Therefore, you can't smell bad breath simply by breathing into your hands. Besides, you usually get used to the smell of your own breath. The chance of detecting accurately whether you have halitosis using this process is nil.

Several dental researches are currently being conducted to find the most effective cure for bad breath. While bad breath is not a major health concern, it is a physical problem just the same. It requires your full attention because it has both social and psychological effects. Ignoring bad breath won't make it go away. It would just make the condition worse.

Regular visits to the dentist would help you maintain a healthy set of teeth and gums. And a person who follows good oral hygiene is not likely to develop bad breath, provided that he is also healthy inside and out. Take the bad breath test. See to it that your breath is one hundred percent fresh all the time. And boost your confidence all the way!

HOPE FOR WEIGHT WATCHERS

Proactol™ - how does it compare to other natural fat binders?

For more information on Proactol™ http://track.moreniche.com/hit.php?w=139523&s=38

Proactol™ may still be a relative new comer compared to other natural fat binders Chitosan and Absorbitol, but during this time it has established itself as a credible herbal supplement.

Having undergone 4 successful pre-clinical and clinical studies - during which Proactol™ was tested under a double blind study. Proactol™ has been proven to block 28% of consumer’s digestible fat, contributing to successful long term weight loss.

But alongside each of these trials, Proactol™’s standing amongst competing fat binders has grown further following the revelation of its numerous other natural health benefits.

Benefits that can prove to be pivotal deciders when choosing the right weight loss management plan for you:

Proactol™
Medically backed by the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and leading health official across the globe, Proactol™ is clinically proven to:


Bind 28% of your dietary fat intake
Lower blood cholesterol levels and blood pressure
Reduce your calorie consumption by 150 calories per meal
Suppress your appetite whilst lowering food cravings
Increase joint flexibility
Appease aches and pains
And clinically proven to cause no negative side effects, consumers can continue to use Proactol™ to maintain their weight loss for a long as they need.

Chitosan

Clinically tried and tested, Chitosan has undergone 5 clinical trials since its release onto the market. From these trials Chitosan has been proven to:

Contribute to weight loss results of 7.2 lbs in 28 days
Inhibit LDL cholesterol and boost HDL cholesterol
The one flaw of this fat binder is that it has been linked to increased irregular bowel movements that results in the excretion of the bound fat molecules in a semi-raw state.

Absorbitol
Restricted in usage to 3-4 times a week, Absorbitol has been found to:

Produce weight loss results of 16lbs in 30 days
Bind 10.8g of fat with only 1g of Absorbitol
Lower blood cholesterol levels
But consumers are advised to use this fat binder with caution to ensure that they still receive viable amounts of fat in their diet. For this reason it is recommended that consumer’s only take is 3-4 times a week and not every day.

Which fat binder can offer consumers more promising results?

Place each of these fat binders side by side and Proactol™ is by far the more reliable supplement, offering consumers a risk free route to weight loss that is consistent, long term and is free from the dangers of surgery.

Proof of Proactol™’s credibility amongst leading nutritionists, dieticians and Physicians can clearly be seen in its recent feature in well-renowned medical magazine Scottish Primary Care.

Featured as a supporting solution for those seeking to combat heart disease and smoking, Scottish Primary Care Magazine’s direct accreditations of Proactol™’s fat binding qualities, can offer consumers the reassurance they need to take the step to natural weight loss.

And considering its growing status in the medical field, Proactol™ is a weight loss supplement that we can readily recommend with confidence.
