The Keto Diet - a low-carb, high-fat diet - is designed for weight loss but it does have an unpleasant side effect -- bad breath. Main points: - When on the diet, ketones produced in the liver cause a rotting fruit/metallic smell. - Keep hydrated with water, chewing mints or gum containing xylitol helps. - Brush teeth twice a day and floss. There are other reasons for bad breath. Make sure you see a dentist for regular check-ups. "If you're doing well on the keto diet...you can still stay in ketosis and treat your bad-breath situation."
