Bad bacteria backed up in the bowels can contribute to bad breath or body odor, as the waste literally sits and putrefies in the colon. A thickly coated tongue can be another symptom of constipation. In fact, bacteria sitting in the colon for too long can lead to bad breath that never seems to get better no matter how many times you brush, gargle, or use fresheners. check this link out, good info here:

I wish you the best of luck, take care!

He needs to see his Dentist. He may have periodontal disease where he has infection in his gums. If he has this there is no guarantee that it will be painful. He may have acid reflux. Have him brush his tongue to release bacteria that may be hiding in the taste buds. If that doesn’t help in a week or so, call the Dentist and schedule an appt.

Maybe it’s his sinuses and post-nasal drip causing the bad odor. Maybe a sinus decongestant can make a difference.

THE BAD SMELL IS EITHER COMING FROM HIS MOUTH OR STOMACH. DOES HE BRUSH AND FLOSS EVERYDAY? HE SHOULD BRUSH EVERY TIME HE EATS. AN UPSET STOMACH CAN ALSO GIVE BAD BREATH. WHAT DID HE EAT? SOMETHING THAT FERMENTS OR ROTS? SOMETIMES, WHEN YOU EAT A FOOD THAT TAKES A LONG TIME TO DIGEST,LIKE MEAT… ALONG WITH SOMETHING THAT TAKES LITTLE TIME, LIKE MILK, THE MILK GETS HUNG UP IN DIGESTION AND IT ROTS.
STUDY HIS DIET.YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. IF ALL ELSE FAILS…CHEW RAW PARSLEY.

If it’s really that bad he should first see his dentist!! does he floss? at least once a day? that can help…also TELL HIM TO SCRAPE OR BRUSH HIS TONGUE!! that’s where a lot of odor-causing bacteria can thrive..he can get a scraper at any drugstore or just use the edge of a spoon, or brush his tongue, but with a clean toothbrush, and AFTER he’s brushed….he needs to brush his tongue for at least 8-10 seconds, from as far back as he can reach (without dry heaving!!) and towards the front; & he should go all across the tongue…but see the dentist first,to rule out anything else that may be ‘going wrong’ inside his mouth..Sometimes certain foods can cause this, or perhaps his digestive system is out of whack….& as someone else said, he should really try to drink more water; WATER not pop, coffee, tea, but WATER….several glasses a day….hope this helps..good luck.

Brush your tongue and the sides of your cheek helps. Or if that doesn’t work get some medicine.

1. Go to the dentist, a bad tooth or gums can cause bad breath
2. Check if he has some stomach problem
3. Don’t smoke or eat heavy foods, like garlic, onion, pastrami, sausages, etc.
4. Use antibacterial mouthwash.
5. He can chew cloves or mint for fresher breath.
