Being a hygienist, I tell people with bad breath to eat items with chlorophyll. Like celery, also peanut butter, and yoghurt. There is a mouthrinse called made by oxyfresh that a lot of people swear helps them. When you brush your teeth also brush your tongue.

Not sure if that will help anyone, I guess on phase one kind of shuts down most of those. Maybe the WF pb on the celery lol.

Locks, I'm a hygienist also :) I have some Oxyfresh but I'm not sure it works very well for the bad breath we get on this diet. I'm swishing with to much Listerine and chewing to much Trident but I'm "phobic" about bad breath being so close to my patients. Do you have a problem with your breath? I find myself putting on my mask as soon as I seat the patient LOL.:D

Hey hello nice to see you toothgirl. Me too, I am always worried about bad breath when talking with patients. I havent noticed the bad breath though, and belive me I am paranoid about it lol. I have a lot of perio patients and god their breath is to die for lol. I dont want to smell like that at all. So far all I have is a dry mouth when I dont drink like for 30 or 40 mins. I try to drink after each patient, then pee, Good thing my chair is beside the toilette, boss doesnt know how often I go :carrot:

I had to change my supper and use the drinks. I get like 3 mins for supper and thats pushing it, so the drinks work alot better for me. I cut some celery and cucumber to grab inbetween. I work three evenings and one day, and meal times are non existant pretty much.

We sell xpure gum at work, the xylitol gum we give to cancer patients with real bad dry mouth, so I grab one or two a night. Coach said no more then two a day.

Whole Cloves for fresh breath...
 
I used whole cloves to stop smoking many years ago and turns out that they make your breath smell pleasant. Just pop one in your mouth and keep it there 5-10 min--they keep the flavor longer than any gum and are 0/0/0.

We have a mixture of cloves at work, for dry socket (infection after wisdom tooth extraction) and it smells really nice, looks like chewing tobacco though lol
