I have body odor & i can't get rid of bad breath i floss and brush & still don't work can it be my stomach or maybe a sign of diabetes i'm 240 pounds?

Several things: It's very hard to determine if these symptoms are all related. I would recommend you see both your internist and dentist The bad breath could be caused by dental decay, periodontitis, and /or stomach GI issues such as reflux.
