instruction: hello doctor for a while now I have had a terrible odor that comes out my mouth and nose the odor is somewhat subtle whenever I am not around a fan ac etc but whenever I am around one of those the smell seems to spread all around me I am positive the smell is coming from inside my stomach I have realized a lot about leaky gut and candid but neither one mentions a smell my diet before has been poor lots of packaged sugary foods but I have always been a healthy weight I feel terrible riding in a vehicle with others I will sometimes hold my breath to try and stop the smell but it does not work most of the time my symptoms started when I was a working nightshift job stress might have been a factor although I did not feel like I was I have not worked there for almost six months and my condition has worsened could the amount of sugar I consumed destroyed my stomach lining I also heard when candid is starved it digs into the lining and essentially makes holes which can cause food to leak could this be the source of the smell I am currently taking probiotics
output: hi welcome to icliniq com there is nothing like leaking gut in the medical dictionary the bad breath you are experiencing in medical terms is called halitosis it is majorly because of poorly kept oral hygiene it could be an indicator of gum infection tooth decay smoking alcohol etc sometimes it is because of organized infection of tonsils my suggestion is to consult a dentist first to find out the cause as in the majority of patients it is related to the oral cavity the remedy is simple maintain good oral hygiene by brushing twice daily in your case after every feed do regular flossing avoid smoking and alcohol if you do so you can use flavored mouthwashes regularly which are easily available with chemists
