According to the World Health Organization, 60% of the global population has experienced bad breath at some point in their lives.   This is a problem that generates discrimination and directly affects the self-esteem and confidence of the person suffering from it; however, it is possible that a common beverage in our lives holds the solution to the problem: coffee. Our friends at Salud180.com discuss this topic.     A study conducted by Tel Aviv University has just discovered that, beyond causing it, coffee has the ability to inhibit the development of oral bacteria that cause halitosis.   Halitosis is among the main reasons for dentist visits and usually occurs in the morning, originating from an increase in the composition of substances accumulated in the mouth.   The study not only proposes an alternative way to treat this condition but also debunks one of the most ingrained myths that coffee influences bad breath. For microbiologist Mel Rosenberg, the leader of the research, when this substance mixes with milk, it can ferment, leading to foul-smelling substances.   To avoid the onset of bad breath, it is recommended to maintain good oral hygiene habits, including flossing and rinsing, as well as periodic visits to the dentist.   Remember, a smile can open many doors, but a breath can conquer.   See original article.   Super Secret  How to Improve Your Breath Naturally     Coffee Recipes    Traditional Olla Coffee  Hot Coffee with Spices  Coffee Cake  Coffee Gelatin     What is your favorite coffee recipe?
