Any solutions for bad Atkins breath?
 
Hey guys--I was just wondering if any of you know of any EFFECTIVE measures in destroying bad Atkins breath--I'm going nutty over here!

I take 2 chlorophyll tablets every day - it took a few weeks to get "fresh", but for me it works well!

Crystal breath
 
Try Crystal Breath, they work from the inside, they're spearmint oil I think, just pop like 4 of them & they last for hours. You can get them at any CVS or Walgreens.

You're in my hometown, what part?

Excess ketones are exhaled through the lungs. By drinking more water you can dilute the ketones in your system and flush them out through the urine.

If you are already drinking 100 oz or more of water already then taking some form of breath mint may help mask the presence of the odor but will not rid you of it entirely.

'Blitz' Breath-mints
 
I hate to advertise, but I use 'Blitz' breath mints, they are sweetend with splenda :spin: and have only 0.12g of carb each. I usually eat on after a meal... they help mask the strong 'egg' breath and kill the 'cheesy' arouma.

I'm just wondering how Dr. Atkins will feel having bad breath named after him....... :D :D :D

Where do you find chlorophyll tablets?

I have never had ketone breath (at least no one has said so) but my pee wreaks of ketones. :blush: I recommend more water!

Chlorophyll tablets are most likely found at a health food store.

Yep, the cholrophyll tablets can be found at a health food store or possible a "Vitamin" store - I've ordered mine on-line at puritan.com

Where can I find Blitz breath mints? I like that they have Splenda.

Blitz Mints
 
I find Blitz mints in the check out isle of my Wally World or HyVee grocery stores.

I have been using the Listerine strips...the values show 0% across the board. They do the trick for me

stinky breath
 
I am so relieved that I am the not the only one with stinky breath! This is disgusting! However, I have noticed that my teeth feel cleaner most of the time!
