Really Bad Breath, Worse On Gluten

Recommended Posts

I have had ongoing, permanent bad breath (my little children always tell me) since going gluten light,(after a period of gluten free) and have noticed it's been getting worse, but much much worse since doing this challenge.

I am also aware it's a sign of candida infection. I was just wondering if any one else noticed that they had bad breath when on gluten and then it got better when they went gluten free? Or if it is a known sign of celiac disease / gluten intolerance. I haven't seen it on any lists of symptoms anywhere, but often real peoples experiences are the best ....

thanks

I've been off gluten three years now, but your post reminded me. It was an issue for both my son and I. We were diagnosed at the same time. We don't notice it now, even when we get glutened, so I'd forgotten all about it. Hopefully it will go away for you too.

I read something about bad breath on a food intolerance list I'm on. One person mentioned that diabetes can cause odor. Another mentioned this link: Open Original Shared Link (low carb diet causing bad breath) I personally don't know anything about this topic, but thought I'd forward this info in case it helps...

Eosinophilic Esophagitus also causes bad breath. Have you noticed and creamish/ white spots on your tonsils? It smells like puss.

Diebetic ketosis smells like acetone (an ingredient in nail polish remover)

Sinus problems, candida overgrowth, food intolerances/ GI problems, and dry mouth/dental issues can also be a factor.

It is a reason to see a doctor.

I think bad breath can definitely be a gluten intolerance/celiac symptom. I never realized I had an issue with bad breath until my fiancee told me about it. According to him, it's only present when I've had gluten and my breath is normal when I'm gluten free - which I've been for about 9 months now. He can tell if I've had any accidental gluten by my breath (in addition to my other symptoms - mostly bloating and migraine). Anyway, he says it smells 'like something crawled down my throat and died'. Yikes!

Yes.. I am experimenting the same thing.. I have not been diagnosed with Celiac but I have PCOS and decided to try going Gluten free because I heard that it may jump start my cycle on it's own..

But I did notice that my breathe is fresher.. I had a deep cleaning and it didn't help.. So I thought that my case was more severe.. But I guess my body isn't able to handle Gluten very well., I have been Gluten free for about a week or so.. Thank u for your post!!

      Sugar intolerance 10 years into gluten-free diet

      @science enthusiast Christi, It could be Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). Lots of people with Celiac develop it, especially if they eat a high carbohydrate diet. Colonic bacteria crawl into the small intestine and ferment the excess carbohydrates and prebiotic fibers which causes lots of gas. I changed my diet to the Autoimmune...

      Yes, a rule I usually follow. Pict Sweet was always known to be gluten-free and after many years of use with no problems, it's easy to forget to look.

      What should I expect from a UK restaurant advertising / offering "Gluten Free" food

      "I am quite convinced this gluten is coming from exposure whilst eating out. Small levels, that don't make me violently sick, but might give me a mild stomach upset." cristiana, are you saying this is your actual experience or are you speculating here?

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I have tried many Vit D. Solgad is one that did not cause any problems. I take 5000IU. Most of their vitamins are gluten-free certified but this is not. They can be purchased direct from Solgar or Amazon.

I need to find another gi but its useless because its going to be same thing around here.i just feel lost and in tbe medical file they are writing what ever and its really not ok. In fact i dont want to go unless they record the conversation. Yes its that bad.im only having  care and concern for my ms whose Not part of the same health association that pcp and gi are with.I will have to look into changing to another. Mayo clinic is great but its the celiac, sibo, ect and all related issues that need addressed but current " careteam says call when needed. No plans of scheduled dates

      @science enthusiast Christi, It could be Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).  Lots of people with Celiac develop it, especially if they eat a high carbohydrate diet.   Colonic bacteria crawl into the small intestine and ferment the excess carbohydrates and prebiotic fibers which causes lots of gas.   I changed my diet to the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (AIP), a Paleo diet, and supplemented with a B Complex and Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine that helps heal the intestines and has antibacterial properties.  I had improvement within a few days.  The AIP diet starves out the carbohydrate loving SIBO bacteria and allows more beneficial bacteria a chance to repopulate. Hope this helps.
