What does sulfur breath mean?

Halitosis (bad breath) is mostly caused by sulphur-producing bacteria that normally live on the surface of the tongue and in the throat. Sometimes, these bacteria start to break down proteins at a very high rate and odorous volatile sulphur compounds (VSC) are released from the back of the tongue and throat.

How do you get rid of Sulphur breath?

The one sure way to get rid of halitosis is to neutralize and block VSCs in the mouth. Typical mouthwashes can produce fresh breath for a short time, but the sulfur gas will return soon, and along with it, bad breath. The best way to neutralize sulfur gas is to use a zinc-ion based mouth rinse.
