So, a couple of weeks ago, I’m sitting in church with my family and it’s a fast day. My daughter leans over and asks if I have any gum. I was happy that indeed I did, so I could give her some. As I go to hand it to her, she says to me, “No mom, it’s for you! Your breath is so bad, my eyes are burning!!”. Needless to say that was an eye opener, burning and all.

Since then, my family has commented several times that perhaps some gum would do me and society some good. I notice it myself now. Have, of course, tried brushing teeth/tongue, mouthwash, mints, gum, what have you. But it only helps temporarily. Have realized that it must be because my stomach is empty and keetones are at play.

Any suggestions on how to solve this problem? Anything I can take or do to help? Please tell me I’m not the only offender?

What good is feeling and looking better than ever, if no one can stand to be in your presence? Any tips would be greatly appreciated, and I’m sure my daughter will thank you too! 😀

Nomoreyoyo – I didn’t know there was such a thing as a ketosis strip, so that would be really interesting to hear how that goes!

Puny – I will try the parsley idea. Know that I think if it, that is why a lot of restaurants add it as a garnish, or so I understand. Will let you know if it works. Thanks!
