Why does Coffee make your Breath smell Foul?

Question

Is it something in the Coffee, like Caffeine or the Coffee Beans?

Answer 1

caffeine and antioxidants do the work for you... so you better cut them off or moderate consumption........

Answer 2

No, it's the fact that all good things have a bad side effect.

Coffee= Good Taste, Bad Breath

Workout=Good Exercises, Tires you out

Etc, etc.

Answer 3

I would say that most people who experience problems with coffee are using the rancid stuff off the grocers shelves or the burnt offering of the *$'s gods. Fresh roasted, properly rested coffee beans should not give you problems unless you have an allergy issue.

Old rancid out dated peanuts effect me the way you are describing your issues. So, back to the same thing I have been harping on for some time....Get yourself some FRESH ROASTED Coffee....

Answer 4

Coffee makes your breath smell foul becuase coffee smells foul. Just like smokers smell like ashtrays. You consume onions and garlic your breath smells like onions and garlic. It is just one of those things.

Answer 5

I know coffee gives me bad gas. If you think it's my breath then I guess that's ok.

Answer 6

I think it is the sugar that ppl add to it that leaves the horrible taste in your mouth. The coffee is made from coffee beans and the unpleasant taste comes a little from those too....

Like after eating any sweet or lolly, you get a bad taste after the sweetness has left, i think its something to do with how the sugars are broken down by your saliva...
