Collection: Bad Breath

Bad breath, or Halitosis, is an issue with a number of causes. Eating certain foods, as well as drinking coffee or using tobacco products – all have the ability to leave a lingering odour. Oral hygiene is also a significant and obvious factor. Sometimes however, it can be entirely unrelated. A tooth infection, cavity, or other dental issue can cause bacteria build ups which results in bad breath. A health issue like a common cold or sinus infection will cause nasal drip to occur into the throat. That discharge of mucus can also result in oral odour being created, but the congestion associated with colds and viruses can cause the mouth to dry and bacteria growth to proliferate.

In a social setting, bad breath can be off-putting; uncomfortable for those in proximity and a source of embarrassment and self-consciousness for the sufferer. For someone dealing with a dental issue such as an abscess or infection, this can be very frustrating.

Fortunately, there are 100% natural homeopathic medicines for bad breath. A remedy, such as Mercurius-Solubilis-30c – available from Olloïs, will provide you with the relief you’re looking for. This is particularly effective if the halitosis is accompanied by a moist mouth. In some cases, salivary glands become overactive, producing excess amounts of saliva that emits an odour. This treatment is also effective for bad breath that is being caused by a tooth infection, decay, or another dental issue like gum infections.

FAQ

What is Homeopathy?

Homeopathy is a medical practice based upon the body's ability to heal itself, and the principle that "like cures like" or the Law of Similars: that is, if a natural substance causes a symptom in a healthy person, a very small amount of the same substance may help relieve symptoms of the illness. Homeopathic medicines enhance the body's normal healing and self-regulatory process.

How do I take homeopathic medicines?

Homeopathic medicated pellets contain only a little of an active ingredient for treatment of disease. These are known as highly diluted or "potentiated" substances. Homeopathic medicines should be placed under the tongue of adults and children or in the cheek of an infant, where they will dissolve. It is preferable to take homeopathic medicines apart from meals. The dosage is not related to the weight and age of the patient. In general, dissolve 5 pellets 3 times a day until symptoms are relieved or as directed by your health Care Professional.

Is there evidence that Homeopathy works?

There are literally hundreds of high quality, published basic sciences, pre-clinical and clinical studies showing that homeopathy works. These studies have been published in respected journals like Lancet, Pediatrics, Rheumatology, and Annals of Internal Medicine, among others.

A great source of high quality research in homeopathy at an
international level is the Homeopathic Research Institute in the U.K. headed by physicist, Dr Alexander Tournier. Click below to learn more about their studies and rigorous methods.

Is Homeopathy regulated?

The U.S. Congress passed a law in 1938 declaring that homeopathic remedies are to be regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the same manner as nonprescription, over the counter (OTC) drugs.

Is Homeopathy new?

The Law of Similars has been known since at least the time of Hippocrates (ca. 400 B.C.), but it was doctor and chemist Samuel Hahnemann who fully stated the ideas of homeopathy in the early 1800's in Germany. He discovered the truth of the Law of Similars by testing small doses of medicine on himself. Although there is wider acceptance of homeopathy in countries such as France, Germany, Mexico, Argentina, India and Great Britain, we have seen a greater interest in homeopathic medicine in the USA recently. In fact, the family doctor to England's Queen Elizabeth is a homeopathic physician.

What is the difference between the dilutions?

30C dilutions are traditionally used in Homeopathy to address general and chronic symptoms.

200CK dilutions are usually recommended by healthcare practitioners when there is an emotional component associated with physical symptoms.

Which base ingredient do you use for your pellets?

Our pellets are made from Organic Beet Sucrose exclusively grown in Europe. We then impregnate the pellets with the homeopathic dilution of the remedy.

Are Olloïs remedies HAS/FSA eligible?

Yes, Olloïs homeopathic remedies are eligible.
