Did you know that 25 to 30% of people in the world suffer from halitosis? Chronic bad breath is a common problem, but there are plenty of natural remedies that will give you relief. Here are a few of the most effective natural cures for halitosis:

• Scrape Your Tongue: Your tongue is a breeding ground for bacteria and proteins that ferment to produce foul and lingering odors. After meals, use a tongue scraper to remove bacteria that you can then wash away with water or an oral rinse.
• Use Tea Tree Toothpaste: Tea tree oil is a powerful and naturally occurring disinfectant. Try brushing at least twice per day with a good tea tree toothpaste to assuage your bad breath.
• Chew On Citrus & Herbs: Chewing on lemon or orange rinds will help stimulate your salivary glands to combat halitosis. Additionally, herbs that are rich in chlorophyll, such as parsley and cilantro, act as natural breath deodorizers when you chew them after meals.
