Re: Extremely Bad breath in 5 year old

[Guest guest]

It could possibly be her tonsils. I know that was a problem in my Sis in Law until she got them removed. My daughter has recurring bad breath and tonsilitis, but we can't convince a doc to take them out. I surely don't want my daughter to have the years of bad breath my SIL did. It was horrible. She almost didn't want to do anything as a teen. ALMOST hehe

Hi everyone,This has been going on for some time now and I was wondering what it might be or how to get rid of it. My five yo daughter started with a very foul smelling breath that seems to come up out of her throat and it's just awful. I noticed it after about a week or two on the wrong probiotic; it contained bifidus. This bacteria may have overgrown in her gut. Does anyone know how to overcome it? She is now on an acidophilus only probiotic (6 months) and it's not gone yet. __________________________________________________
