About 20% of the general population are reported to suffer from foul-smelling breath to some degree. 5‑72% of people feeling that they have bad breath, have no genuine halitosis. 90% of those who is diagnosed with halitosis have it because of their oral bacteria below the gum-line and on the back of the tongue. The remaining 10% is accounted for by many conditions, including disorders in the nasal cavity, tonsil stones, sinuses, throat, lungs, esophagus, stomach, pancreatic insufficiency, food sensitivities or metabolic disorders like TMAU.
Bad breath, fetor oris or halitosis is a symptom when a noticeably unpleasant odors are exhaled in respiration. Types of odors depend on the food eaten (such as garlic, onions, meat, fish, and cheese), hydration, body mass, smoking, alcohol consumption and other exposures. Low calorie dieting leads to acetone-like odors. Diseases associated with unpleasant breath include liver (fishy), kidney failure (ammonia-like), cystic fibrosis (acidic). Aging breath could produce cardboard-like smell resembling stale beer.

An alcoholic beverage made by fermenting cereal grains (most commonly malted barley, but also wheat, corn and rice) and flavored with hops. Third most popular drink overall, after water and tea Unique characteristics that help create specific styles of beer come from yeast strains and bacteria fermenting it. Main beer fermenters are yeasts: ale yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae ("top-fermenting" type since they rise to the surface during fermentation, creating a very thick, rich yeast head) and lager yeast (the "bottom-fermenting" type, Saccharomyces uvarum). Yeast varieties such as Brettanomyces bruxellensis and Brettanomyces lambicus are common in lambics. In addition, other organisms such as Lactobacillus bacteria produce acids which contribute to the sourness. Pediococcus sours beers like lambics and Flanders. Bifidobacteria is one of the major types (genera) of bacteria, inhibiting the mouth (B. denium), gastrointestinal tract (B. clostridium), and vagina (Bifidobacterium bifidum, B. breve, B. adolescentis, and B. longum) of mammals, including humans. Some strains, especially Bifidobacterium animalis strain DN-173 010 which has long been used in fermented dairy products, show high gastrointestinal survival capacity and exhibit probiotic properties in the colon. Before the 1960s, Bifidobacterium species were collectively referred to as "Lactobacillus bifidus". Numbers of intestinal bifidobacteria decrease with age, especially Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium breve, while Bifidobacterium adolescentis might be increasing, in the continuous process of transformation of microbiota. Some bifidobacteria are used as probiotics to prevent or treat diarrhea and particular bowel infections Bifidobacterium also have anti-tumor qualities. Manipulating the microbiota may modulate cancer immunotherapy. gram-positive anaerobic rod-shaped bacterium Bifidebacterium lactis DN 173-010, a proprietary strain of Bifidobacterium - .lactic acid bacteria that normally live in the intestinal tract and can also be found in fermented foods such as cheese and yogurt. Bifidus regularis is a marketing name generated by Danone (known in the US as Dannon) for one of the specific bacteria it uses in its “Activia” range of yogurt products. According to the Federal Trade Commission, Dannon's advertising contained exaggerated health claims before a settlement reached in December 2010. Specifically, the FTC questioned claims that eating a single serving of Activia a day relieves bowel irregularity and that drinking DanActive prevents colds or the flu. strains of S. Salivarius bacteria that produce Bacteriocin-Like Inhibitory Substances (lantibiotic bacteriocins). Streptococcus salivarius K12 was isolated from the saliva of a healthy child and is used to restore good oral bacteria and improve bad breath. History of commercial application dates back to the year of 2001 in New Zealand. It was shown to exhibit antimicrobial activity against Streptococcus pyogenes and various bacterial species incriminated in the etiology of halitosis Streptococcus salivarius is a prominent member of the oral microbiota of “healthy” humans and is closely related to Streptococcus thermophilus. Also known as "Brett" or wild yeast, this non-spore forming yeast in the family Saccharomycetaceae is associated with funky barnyard smell. Could make flavorful beers and wines (it's a "cousin" of domesticated yeasts that humans have brewed with for thousands of years), but is generally seen as a wine spoilage yeast. Can be found on fruit skins Brettanomyces can convert butyric acid (present in human fluids, associated with vomit, bile, or rancid cheese) into Ethyl Butyrate at low levels, which has a pineapple, tropical fruit aroma and flavor. Brettanomyces metabolites include higher fatty acids C6-C12, and ethyl esters like ethyl caproate. Microorganisms found on the skin and mucous membranes of the mouth, vagina, and intestinal tract where they are usually benign but can become pathogenic, overgrowth of these organisms can cause symptoms to develop. Candidiasis that develops in the mouth or throat is called “thrush” or oropharyngeal candidiasis. Candidiasis in the vagina is commonly referred to as a “yeast infection.” invasive candidiasis occurs when Candida species enter the bloodstream and spread throughout the body. Infectious bacteria, intracellular parasite of eukaryotic cells, almost always transmitted by sexual contact with an infected individual. C. trachomatis is the leading cause of sexually transmitted disease worldwide. It is also the leading cause of preventable blindness (caused by a chlamydia infection called trachoma) in the world. C. trachomatis is also one of the major causes of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and infertility in women. Men usually have no symptoms, but infection can cause discharge from the penis, pain and burning during urination, infection or inflammation in the ducts of testicles, and tenderness or pain in the testicles. dysuria, frequency, and mucoid to purulent discharge. Clinical syndromes associated with C. trachomatis include epididymitis, proctitis, conjunctivitis, and Reiter’s syndrome. In women, C. trachomatis may produce no specific symptoms too, at least until the next menstrual period. The most common symptoms are mucopurulent discharge and fragility. Some women develop salpingitis, endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), acute urethral syndrome, bartholinitis, cervicitis, cervical dysplasia, conjunctivitis, perihepatitis, and arthritis. ectopic pregnancy and tubal factor infertility. It is associated with an increased risk for the transmission or acquisition of HIV and is also attributed to be a risk factor for the development of cervical carcinoma. Bacteria commonly found in the environment - soil, water, sewages - and is responsible for reducing nitrate to nitrite. As an opportunistic pathogen, C. freundii is also responsible for a number of significant infections of the respiratory tract, urinary tract, blood and several other normally sterile sites. It might be also causing systemic body odor in humans. C. freundii represents approximately 29% of all opportunistic infections. It is one of the most common hydrogen sulfide-producing species of bacteria along with Hafnia alvei, Pseudomonas, Citrobacter, Aeromonas, Salmonella, and Escherichia coli Firmicute, Citrobacter Bacteria that normally lives in human digestive and urinary tracts but may also cause infections in some cases. C. koseri rarely causes infection in healthy, immunocompetent patients and, thus far, has been considered an opportunistic pathogen. There were reports on infective aortic endocarditis due to C. koseri. It can also occasionally causes meningitis, sepsis, ventriculitis, and cerebritis with 80% frequent multiple brain abscesses in low-birth-weight, immunocompromised neonates. The pathogenic mechanism is poorly understood. C. koseri may have a unique ability to penetrate, survive, and replicate into vascular endothelial cells and macrophages. Furthermore, it survives in phagolysozomal fusion and replicates within macrophages, which may contribute to the establishment of chronic abscesses Raised serum concentrations of IgA and IgM to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of gram-negative enterobacteria, such asPseudomonas aeruginosa, Morganella morganii, Proteus mirabilis, Pseduomonas putida, Citrobacter koseri, and Klebsiella pneumoniae have been reported in CFS patients Psychological stress alters the gut microbiota towards decreased numbers of Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli People with CFS were shown to have higher concentrations of intestinal C. koseri bacteria than normal, which probably leads to higher levels of H2S. Professor Kenny De Meirleir of the Brussels Free University and his team say high levels of H2S caused by an intestinal overgrowth of Gram positive D/L lactate-producing bacteria play a major role in CFS and lead to a series of reactions in your body that leave cells devoid of oxygen and energy. |
