Tobacco dries your mouth out and can raise the temperature of your mouth—both of these things contribute to bad breath by allowing bacteria to flourish. Smoking also increases the risk of gum decay, and a mouth with unhealthy gums is a mouth more prone to bad breath! Alcohol dries out the mucous membranes, so if you’re going to consume it, especially in the evening, you should try to drink one glass of water in between every alcoholic beverage—this way, you’re keeping your mouth moist. Bacteria flourish in dry, stagnate environments, so drinking lots of water and other fluids throughout the day helps to stave off odors in your mouth the next morning.  It is especially important to drink water right before going to bed, as the mouth dries out a lot over the course of the night when we’re sleeping and not consuming any food or fluids for many hours. Aim for eight 8 oz. glasses of water a day.[citation needed] If you aren't able to drink that much, supplement with milk or 100% fruit juice as necessary.[citation needed]  Owing to their high water content, fruits and vegetables offer another great source of hydration, in addition to water. Beyond this, the high fiber content of vegetables helps flush your body of toxins that may contribute to morning breath. Xylitol, the sweetener used in a lot of sugar-free gum products (and mints), can decrease bacteria that causes decay and bad breath.[citation needed] And flavored gum with Xylitol will not only help to eliminate bacteria that causes odor—it will also give your breath a scent of your choosing. Chewing gum twenty minutes after you eat might help to stimulate saliva flow. Some medications, such as insulin, can cause bad breath on their own, while others, like antihistamines, cause your mouth to dry out overnight, and lead to morning breath that way. If you have concerns about any over-the-counter or prescription drugs you’re taking, talk to your doctor. Take rubbing alcohol put it in a cup, then mix it with water and drink it. Swish it around in your mouth like mouth rinse (you can use mouth rinse instead of, if preferred), then spit it out. Be sure to have a cup full of just water, then after you spit it out, swish the water in your mouth and spit it out. Repeat as necessary.
