Everyone knows that certain foods have a reputation for causing bad breath. Possibly the two of the most notorious ones are garlic and onions.
When we eat our digestive system breaks the food we have consumed down in to its component molecules, some of which have very unpleasant and characteristic odors. As these molecules are created they are absorbed into our circulatory system and distributed throughout the remainder of our body as nourishment.
As our blood travels through our lungs some of these molecules will be released into them. Therefore when we exhale our breath will contain some of these offending molecules. As a result we will find that they have bad breath.
