Type 2 Bad breath

Hi all,
I have bad breath & hope that it is related to diet/dehydration so I am asking if there is anything that I can do eating or drink wise to help the situation. I have looked on Google and it seems that I have about 73 fatal diseases so you will all have to reply quickly before I expire sometime next week.

I should add that I am diet controlled and I am almost vegan (meaning I try to not eat animal products but don't lose sleep if I slip up now & again) so I eat a lot of veggies & beans so that other end can be a bit smelly as well, what a life . I do have trouble drinking enough water because water seems to give me wind and I suppose that it is because I must be swallowing or gulping air when I drink water, also it doesn't taste all that good and I don't like artificial sweeteners so don't use diluting drinks.

I have seen that I can buy nasal irrigation kits on Amazon, has anyone tried them?

Thanks.
Jim

My last HB whatsit thingy was 6.4 so I hope that I am doing something right, The DN put it down to me losing weight not my vegan diet.

Mouthwash after brushing may help.

Beer has a lot of water in it ;-)

This is probably too much information but I have false teeth and they are very well cleaned at night & after meals but it makes me wonder if I am missing something, Thanks anyway.

I have started to drink more water, It tastes better with a slice of lemon orange and ice in.

That sounds very refreshing, I will try that.

If you are low carbing you may have keto breath. It's not dangerous, just stinky.

I am afraid my breath is just stinky according to my wife but I would rather know so that I can do something about it, I have smelt keto breath before & it is quite pleasant compared to my breath. I think that I may need to try a modified detox suitable for a diabetic.
