Natural Remedies for Bad Breath

Bad breath, although very common, can be quite embarrassing, and very few people will actually come and tell you that you have it. There are many reasons for it, namely alcohol, oral dryness and digestive problems, among many others.  So how do we make sure we don't have bad breath?

If you suffer from chronic bad breath, then mouthwash may not be enough, especially if you only use it in the morning. However, there are plenty of natural remedies that can keep your breath fresh for a long time, and also help solve the problem that caused it in the first place. Here are some easy and natural solutions anyone can use, and we're sure that out of all the items on this list, you'll find something that works for you.

Mint - Chew fresh mint leaves during the day to neutralize bad breath over the long-term. It also works with basil, rosemary and parsley.


Parsley - Parsley in particular has a high level of chlorophyll, so a great solution is to chew a few parsley stems dipped in vinegar for immediate relief. If you swallow the leaves after chewing, they will get digested and will continue to freshen your breath for quite some time. The reason is that these leaves reduce the amount of gas created in the bowel by promoting better digestion.

An infusion of cloves
- Prepare a home-made mouthwash by mixing three buds of cloves, or a quarter-spoonful of ground cloves, with two cups of hot water. Let it soak for 20 minutes while stirring occasionally. Filter, cool and use as a mouthwash that you can gargle twice a day.


Fresh vegetables - Chew vegetables such as carrots, celery or lettuce to keep your mouth clean and your breath fresh.

Apples - Eat an apple on a daily basis to neutralize bad odors. The best time to do so is in the morning.

Apple Vinegar
- Consume a tablespoon of apple vinegar before each meal.


Hazelnuts - Chew hazelnuts very slowly until they absorb all the bad odor in your mouth.


Lemon - Suck on a slice of lemon with salt on it to get rid of the smell of onions or garlic.

Drinking Baking Soda - A solution that will help reduce the amount of acidity in the mouth. Make sure to brush your teeth with baking soda every couple of days. It won't only bring some shine to your teeth, but will also neutralize those bad odors. You can put some baking soda on a wet toothbrush or dip the toothbrush (with the toothpaste) in the powder.

Gargling Salt
- Mix a spoonful of salt in a glass of water and gargle for 30 seconds without swallowing.


Tea tree oil - The tea tree oil contains a powerful disinfectant mixture. Try to use a toothpaste that contains the oil, or pour a few drops of it on your toothbrush.


Cinnamon - Suck on a little piece of cinnamon peel during the day to alleviate bad breath.

Aromatic Spices - Chew cardamom, cloves or sage to neutralize bad breath. Our recommendation is to choose the aromatic spices that are tasty and also release aromatic oils.

Hydrogen Peroxide - Dilute with 50% water and pour 5-10 drops in each nostril. Blow strongly until the sinuses open. This will resolve that bad odor that originates from blocked sinuses.


Citrus Fruit - Bad breath is often the result of simple mouth dryness. If this is the case, just eat some citrus fruit that have a lot of lemon acid, such as oranges, lemons or grapefruits. They can significantly improve your breath. The acid in these fruits encourages the production of saliva, which helps get rid of some of the odor-causing bacteria.

What You Should Do to Prevent and Tackle Cancer

Cancer is something we all dread in our lives, but as the old adage goes, knowledge is power, so it’s better to inform yourself than bury your head in the sand should you ever have to face such a serious battle. To start off, let’s look at some of the facts associated with the disease:
 
10 Key Facts About Cancer
1. Every person has cancer cells in their body.
These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When a doctor informs a patient that they have no more cancer cells in their body, it means that that there are none of a detectable size.
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.
3. When the person's immune system is strong, cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.
4. When a person is diagnosed with cancer, it indicates that the person had/has nutritional deficiencies.
This could be due to genetics, as well as environmental, food and lifestyle factors.
5. Chemotherapy involves poisoning cancer cells, however healthy cells can also be affected.
One of the big downsides is that the treatment can cause organ damage.
6. The radiation associated with chemotherapy can also cause burns and scarring, as well as damage to healthy cells, tissues and organs.
7. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. 
Prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not tend to result in more tumor destruction.
8. When the body’s toxicity becomes too high due to chemotherapy and radiation, the immune system can become severely compromised, or even be destroyed.
This leads to other infections and complications.
9. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy.
Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.
10. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding them with the foods they need to multiply.
 
Lifestyle Changes You Can Make to Prevent Cancer
1. Forget about sugar substitutes.
These usually contain Aspartame, which is harmful to the body. Great natural alternatives include very small amounts of Manuka honey or molasses.
2. Replace regular milk with unsweetened soy milk.
Milk consumption makes the body produce mucus, which cancer cells feed on. Cancer cells can be starved when switching to soy milk.
3. Replace your red meat intake with white meat and fish. 
A meat-based diet is acidic, so it’s best to eat fish and white meat instead. Cancer thrives in an acidic environment.
4. Ensure that 80% of your diet consists of fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruit.
This will help to create an alkaline environment in the body.
5. The remaining 20% of your diet can be cooked food.
6. Beverages with high caffeine content should be avoided.
Drink green tea instead of coffee, tea or hot chocolate. It has cancer-fighting properties.
7. Drink purified water. This will help you avoid heavy metals and toxins contained in tap water.
A handy way of making water alkaline is to squeeze fresh lemons into it.
8. Take supplements to build up your immune system.
Supplements such as IP6, Florescence and Essiac, together with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, enable the body’s own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Taking vitamin E supplements, for instance, causes apoptosis, or programmed cell death, which is the body’s method of getting rid of damaged or unneeded cells.
9. Cancer is a disease of mind, body and spirit, and it must be fought accordingly.
Proactivity and positivity are crucial for preventing and surviving cancer. Anger, bitterness and resentment make the body more acidic, which allows cancer to thrive. Do your best to be in the best state of mind you possibly can.
10. Make sure your body is full of oxygen.
Oxygenate your body by exercising daily and breathing deeply. This will allow you to get oxygen all the way down to the cellular level, helping to destroy cancer cells.
  
Microwave No-Nos That Can Cause Cancer
1. Putting plastic containers in the microwave.
The combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxins, which are poisonous, cancer-causing chemicals, into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Glass or ceramic containers are much better alternatives.
2. Putting water bottles in the freezer.
Freezing plastic bottles with water inside of them releases dioxins from the plastic into the water.
3. Microwaving something covered in plastic wrap.
Plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
