Default Bad Breath

How do you control the horrible breath that results from surgery? I can't stand it. I know it comes from my stomach, and I HATE having bad breath but I don't know how to fix it. Help.

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."

Default Ketosis breath! eek!

I too asked a similar question asking why everything tasted so terrible and "off". Once I read a bit about ketosis I found a new appreciation for my bad breath!

I know what you mean, it's horrible and it's hard to talk with your lips closed! When my husband was doing Atkins we used Therabreath...it worked pretty well for him...you can usually get it at Walgreens...
