12 Signs You May Not Be Healthy

Your breath smells

Bad breath, also known as halitosis, is the most common symptom for dental problems, such as tooth decay and gum disease, according to a 2018 study published in “The Open Dentistry Journal”. The culprit could just be the garlic you ate at breakfast, of course.

But if it’s not, then you should think of something more serious. Bad breath usually appears as a sign of bacteria on your teeth and tongue, or simply because you haven’t properly brushed or flossed your teeth. But in some cases, it’s linked to sinusitis, bronchitis, tonsilitis, and gastrointestinal issues. If you brush and floss correctly and it still doesn’t seem to go away, then see a dentist.
