Saliva Is The Best Bad Breath Medicine

In all reality, the best bad breath medicine is already produced by our bodies: saliva. Yes, our saliva will prevent bad breath by helping control the bacteria population in these three ways: saliva contains enzymes that stimulate production of antibodies that help control oral bacteria, saliva washes away food particles (helps lower waste production and keeps population lower) and the actual waste products themselves, and saliva is rich in oxygen (the anaerobic bacteria responsible for halitosis do not breed rapidly in well-oxygenated environments).
