“you are what you eat” is kind of true when getting rid of bad breath and body odor

while some foods can increase your chances of being smelly, other foods can help you smell great

hydrate hydrate hydrate

hydration is a key factor to smelling good

you need to consume enough water so the body can adequately process and pass out waste products and smelly compounds

a dry mouth or xerostomia is one of the common causes of bad breath and this can be helped with adequate water intake

fruit and vegetables

dietary fiber is also an important part of a deodorizing diet

fiber works with water to help move wastes and smelly compounds through the digestive tract

the best source of dietary fiber is fruit and vegetables

fruit and vegetables also contain vitamins and minerals which help keep the body functioning at its best

fresh raw fruit and vegetables

enzymes in fresh raw fruit and vegetables are a great addition to a deodorizing diet

fresh plant enzymes help the body’s own enzymes to break food down to digestible components faster

this decreases time in the digestive tract for food to putrefy or rot and release smelly compounds

foods with deodorizing compounds

some foods have minerals and compounds which can neutralize smelly compounds

other foods have compounds which can block absorption of smelly compounds

deodorizing supplements

supplements can both contribute to bad breath and body odor and help deodorize smelly odors
