No!
Bad breath is one sign of toxins in your system at work. Example, bacteria in your mouth, on the tongue, or on the teeth can produce a foul odor. Brushing teeth, flossing every day, and brushing your tongue too, because it can harbor the most bacteria. Followed by a good antiseptic mouth wash, these simple steps can eliminate the mouth as a factor.
However, we must remember that our bodies eliminate toxins and associated bad smells in a number of ways…such as bowels, urine, sweat, and breathing.
If you are constipated, your breath can take on a very acrid odor that is most unpleasant to those near you. It is important that you have sufficient fiber in your diet to ensure you have bowel movements every day to cleanse the colon and intestines. Stay well hydrated as well, so your urine is clear when voiding your bladder.
Beyond that, avoid excessively spicy foods, garlic, onions, or other food groups that exhibit the potential for strong smells. These smells are caused by the chemical constituents in the foods and the digestive process may not nullify them.
It could. You have lots of grit under your nails and you could get a mouth infection.
I don’t think so! My sister use to bite her nails alot and that didn’t cause bad breath…bad breath is when people skip brushing their teeth a loot. Actually, I know people(not me cause I think this is gross) that don’t brush their teeth like ever and it don’t stink!
no i do it everytime because im always spaced out and i still dont have bad breath
Yes, if you’d just scratched your butt before.
No, you just get a germ into your mouth, and then into intestine.
I agree with the person above. and its horrid for your nails too.
Biting nails doesn’t cause bad breath but rather it could be a factor of stomach upset because it is a major entry of microorganisms. Maybe with stomach upset, you can lead to bad breath due to infection.
Bad breath usually comes from not properly caring for your teeth and flossing and can also, for some people can be from a stomach problem. Biting your nails is a nasty habit that can get U sick from germs and bacteria that live under your nails. If you must bite them, please wash your hands first!!!!
No just brush your teeth more often and also your tongue
it will cause your penis to shrivel up and fall off.. it’s a proven fact. i read it in a medical journal.
No..but biting nails is a real turn off…please stop if you do..
secondly most of the times the cause of bad breath is an upset stomach, and ofcourse poor dental hygeine…
no
Possible, but that’s probably another problem altogether. Bad breath is caused by bacteria in the mouth. Get you a good mouthwash and use twice a day. If problem persists see your dentist.
Remember to wash your hands frequently and trim your nails to try and reverse this habit.
yes
i dont think so but u can get an infection in your mouth by those yucky germs underneath your nails
no.
brush your teeth morning and night, use a mouth wash, and carry mints with you. it is the only cure, i guess.
Think it depends what you do with your hands. I had a boyfriend who was a turner, he also used to fiddle with his car and he bit his nails and he always tasted of oil, his breath didn’t smell tho’.
no…
Ive been biting my nails everyday since i was like 7 yrs old. That is not the cause of bad breath. It mostly has to do with either, the bacteria collected on your tongue, (which is why you should always brush your tongue) and your gums.( which is why you should always floss)..
SOmetimes tho if its really bad, and nothing seems to work, then it could be a stomach problem, But if its that, you can just go to the doc and they will give you something for it and it will go away.
I think the answer is yes because my friend bites her nails a lot and she went to the doctor for something to put on them to stop her from biting them and he mentioned that you can get halitosis from biting them and that causes bad breath.
