Halitosis: A Potential Sign of Underlying Health Issues

The [gastrointestinal] system plays a vital role in our overall health, and its dysfunction can manifest in various ways, including unpleasant symptoms like bad breath, or halitosis. This research explores the link between halitosis and gastroenterological diseases. The authors reviewed available literature reports on the gastrointestinal aspects of halitosis. Their findings suggest that bad breath can be an early symptom of several systemic diseases. This study underscores the importance of considering halitosis as a potential indicator of underlying health issues, emphasizing the need for a thorough evaluation to identify the root cause.
