What should I do if I wake up with bad breath?

Most of the bad breath after getting up in the morning is caused by heat in the body or excessive stomach fire, and it may also be caused by oral diseases. Generally, there are many reasons for bad breath. If you want to alleviate the phenomenon of bad breath, you must pay more attention to oral hygiene, actively treat physical diseases, and develop a good habit of brushing your teeth in the morning and evening, rinse your mouth in time after meals, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and eat more light foods.

How to get rid of bad breath in the morning

1. Chinese medicinal materials such as green tea leaves, kuding tea, honeysuckle, gypsum, reed root, honeysuckle, bamboo leaves, ophiopogon japonicus, and forsythia.

The most fundamental way to solve the problem of bad breath when waking up in the morning is to cure the internal heat, because people with bad breath mostly suffer from liver and gallbladder heat syndrome and gastrointestinal heat syndrome. You can take some Chinese medicine to reduce internal heat.

Bamboo Leaf and Gypsum Soup: 30 grams each of raw gypsum and reed root, 12 grams each of raw rehmannia and honeysuckle, 9 grams each of bamboo leaf, Ophiopogon japonicus, Amomum villosum, Forsythia suspensa, and Platycodon grandiflorum, 3 grams of licorice, add three and a half bowls of water, one dose of medicine can produce three bowls of water, take one bowl of warm water each morning and evening. After drinking it for about 2 weeks, the bad breath symptoms will improve.

2. Eat more bitter vegetables and fruits, such as bitter melon, raw pears, lettuce, and bitter vegetable seeds, which can help reduce heat in the body and eliminate bad breath at the root. Eat less hot meats such as beef, mutton, and dog meat.

3. For sudden bad breath, you can put ginger slices in your mouth to quickly get rid of it, or rinse your mouth with ginger water. Drinking ginger water can also prevent air-conditioning disease.

4. Mix 1 spoon of honey with 1 small cup of warm water and drink it on an empty stomach every morning. Honey has the effect of moistening the intestines, clearing away impurities and is quite effective for bad breath caused by constipation.

5. Drinking clean water can keep the mouth moist. Adding a slice of lemon to the water can stimulate saliva secretion and reduce bad breath caused by anaerobic bacteria due to nasal congestion, dry mouth or residual food in the mouth.

6. Toothpaste residue is not only the main culprit of tooth decay and periodontal disease, but also easily causes bad breath. Therefore, you should be careful when brushing your teeth and spend as much time as possible.

7. Once a man suffers from visceral disease, the abnormal fermentation odor in the body will be discharged from the body through the blood vessels and lungs, which will also cause bad breath. In other words, bad breath is also an effective way to detect internal organ diseases in the body.

8. Chewing is the first step in food digestion. Eating slowly and chewing more often can secrete a lot of saliva, which can effectively control the reproduction of bacteria and prevent bad breath. Chewing less and swallowing directly can easily lead to bad breath.

9. The more tongue coating there is, the more likely it is to cause bad breath. Therefore, when brushing your teeth, you should also pay more attention to the cleaning of your tongue.

10. Because saliva secretion decreases at night and the acidity in the oral cavity decreases, anaerobic bacteria become abnormally active in decomposing sulfur-containing proteins. As a result, the fecal reef produces more sulfide than at other times. Therefore, bad breath is most serious in the morning.
