Why Are We So Disgusted By Bad Breath?


 
Health
There isn't much worse than having bad breath. Frankly, it's likely one of the MOST unpleasant personal problem any person could have because, when you have bad breath, you actually make other people feel sick!

I'm not joking!

One of the basic human emotions is disgust: whenever you come across anything that might be infectious or harmful, you recoil, scrunch-up your nose, and perhaps gag. These actions are sure signs of disgust and they are all automatic. You haven't got any conscious control over them. They are actions that your brain is instructing your entire body to do in an attempt to escape from the source of potential infection or illness.

Examples of the chemical compounds that have been found in bad breath include hydrogen sulfide, which has an odor like rotten eggs; skatole, which smells like feces; and putrescine, which smells like rotten meat! If you have bad breath, it doesn't matter if somebody thinks you're the greatest person they have ever met because, the minute their brain notices any of these noxious smells, it recognizes them as a possible source of of infection and actually FORCES their body to automatically recoil in disgust. In other words: Their brain recognizes your bad breath as a potentially DANGEROUS THREAT to their health and well-being! That is the reason other people turn away... take a step back... and will even cover their nose whenever you're talking near them.

For that reason, far from being a minor annoyance, bad breath can have a crippling effect on your your entire life, especially your self-esteem, and your self-confidence.

It can completely ruin the relationship you have with with your family and closest friends by sending their brain into a survival mode. It can often cripple your marriage too: who, in their right mind, would want to have to kiss somebody with bad breath for evermore; from their brain's perspective, they might as well have to kiss a dog turd!

Bad breath is also the biggest turn off in almost any kind of dating scenario too (even much more so than body odor). In fact, in a survey carried out by the BDA (British Dental Association) in the United Kingdom, it was considered to be the MOST unattractive feature any person could possibly have!

It can even have strong implications for your career as well: if you go into a job interview, and the interviewer gets a whiff of your bad breath, it starts an alarm ringing in their mind. On the surface of things, they might think you have a fantastic resume and that you may be well suited for the job, however, in their head, their brain is going to be be yelling at them to escape from the "infection source" sitting in front of them (that's you!). Although they are not likely to to knowingly consider bad breath as a reason not to hire you, the fact that you produced such a strong automatic (and very negative) response in their mind is going to swing their opinion quite a bit.
