Several places: Check your teeth to make sure they are ok. Chronic sinus congestion/sinusitis can cause halitosis. The stomach, and your diet can cause it. In the philippines, people could have had exposure to TB with scarring and pulling of the esophagus causing pulsion diverticula and halitosis. Try to ask your doctor for proper work up. Good luck.

Tongue care: Most of the bacteria that are at play with bad breath reside on the top of the tongue. Learn how to scrape off this bacteria with a flexible tongue blade and you will notice a considerable difference.
