Go see your dentist, it could be as simple as having your teeth cleaned or an infection in your gums. If not your teeth, the odor could be coming from your stomach, then go see your doctor to see what is going on.

You should see a dentist about this, no matter what helps otherwise.
Meantime, brush a lot, floss a lot. And take a spoon and scrape your tongue from back to front, then do the cleaning...bacteria on the tongue are a major source of such problems.
Also, make a solution of drug store hydrogen peroxide and water, half and half [do NOT use 100% peroxide], and rinse your mouth very well several times a day.
But the key is to see a dentist. And look up "halitosis" in a search engine like google...

Bad breath has many possible causes - something you ate, drank, or smoked, a respiratory infection or disease, infected tonsils, infected sinuses, an ear infection, decay in your gums, underlying bone or the teeth themselves, poor dental hygiene.
If you are unsure what the cause is, see an ear, nose and throat doctor. Mouthwash, mints and gums will temporarily cover the smell, but they will not cure it.

if you brush and floss a couple times a day and the problem persists, it could be rotton teeth, or a chronic sinus infection. Both require professional help. Rotton teeth youd prob know about from the pain.

I agree with most everybody else. good be because of other medical problems. but what i normally do assuming its not just a medical condition. is i brush 2-3 times a day and i carry cough drops in my pocket rather than mints. i have really bad breath. but no one seems to notice it. except me.

If none of these do it, check out www.hufa.org - the yeast link. If you have a candida (yeast) fungus overgrowth it can cause body odor. So it might be the cause of your bad breath. By chance, do you have a white coating on your tongue?
