Several causes: You may have reflux disease caused by stomach acid washing up into your mouth. Inability to digest food properly may also cause bad breath. Sinus or throat infections may also cause halitosis (bad breath). Medications and herbal remedies can affect how breath smells.

Smells: Brief history indicates GI imbalance. Would suggest you be worked up by a Gastroenterologist. Also bad breath can be from GERD, infected teeth/gums, failure to floss daily, brushing incorrectly, infected sinuses, infected tonsils/throat, diet/merds/supplemants, allergic response, not having a professional cleaning in more than 3 months, diabetes, etc. In addition to a GI work-up, See your Dentist.
