Morning Breath – The Solution

In another study made in Japan it has been found that missing breakfast is one of the most common causes of morning bad breath among teenagers. The study found that almost a fifth of the participants questioned admitted that they had missed breakfast and of these, one in three suffered from bad breath. This was significantly more than those who had eaten breakfast. But only about half of those who presented with bad breath were conscious that they were suffering from it.

The researchers concluded that “Tongue coating, daily tongue cleaning and breakfast are significant factors for oral malodour among adolescents. Proper tongue coating management together with other healthy lifestyle behaviors, especially having breakfast, should be advocated in adolescents’ health education.”
