What to do if bad breath is caused by stool retention

Bad breath is a disease that occurs in the oral cavity of our human body. The symptoms of this disease are relatively obvious, and it can be caused by many reasons. The specific manifestation of this disease is that the gas emitted from the mouth has a relatively smelly smell. There are many reasons for this situation, including the cause of stool retention. So what should we do about bad breath caused by stool retention?

Eat black fungus to assist massage: Black fungus is a very good intestinal cleansing food, and the air-dried black fungus will swell when it comes into contact with water, which will bring more moisture to the intestines.

However, for those who have difficulty defecation, it is very difficult to solve the problem of stool retention by just eating black fungus, unless auxiliary exercises are combined, such as abdominal massage.

Massage method : Lie flat, with the navel as the center, use your palm to slowly massage the entire lower abdomen within a circle of 20 cm in diameter for 3 to 5 minutes. If you persist every day, there will be a certain effect.

Drink a glass of cold milk on an empty stomach: The principle of drinking cold milk on an empty stomach to relieve constipation is that cold stimulation accelerates intestinal movement; at the same time, milk contains a large amount of lactose, and more than 50% of Chinese people lack the lactase needed to absorb milk.

So after drinking milk, the lactose enters the colon without being digested and is quickly excreted from the body.

Prune juice: Prune juice is called "human scavenger" in Western countries. Prunes are rich in dietary fiber, pectin and some trace elements. Drinking prune juice regularly can help promote gastrointestinal motility, increase the frequency of bowel movements, and effectively relieve or prevent constipation.

Drink a glass of honey water in the morning: Honey is rich in sugar, which can absorb water into the intestinal cavity and facilitate defecation. Eating on an empty stomach can speed up intestinal motility.

Experts remind: The best water temperature for making honey is around 60℃. Water that is too hot or too cold will destroy the nutritional structure of honey.

1 sweet potato for dinner: Sweet potatoes are rich in antioxidant vitamin C, beta-carotene, and more than twice the amount of vitamin E as brown rice. The dietary fiber content accounts for 40% of it, and it contains complete and rich amino acids, which can clean the stomach and intestines, treat constipation, and eliminate stool. The white juice (mucin) in sweet potatoes has the effect of lowering cholesterol and blood lipids.

Experts remind: Although sweet potatoes are good, you should not eat too much every day! Because the oxidase and crude fiber in sweet potatoes can produce a large amount of carbon dioxide gas in the stomach and intestines, which will cause bloating, burping, and farting, seriously affecting people's digestive function. In addition, sweet potatoes have a high sugar content. Eating too much can produce a lot of stomach acid, causing bloating, acid reflux, stomach pain, etc.
