The foods that make you smell more attractive
Alcohol and coffee
Alcohol – especially consumed in large amounts and at regular intervals, says Begdache – can cause bad smell both from the gastrointestinal tract and from the sweat glands. When your body processes alcohol by breaking it down inside the liver, it releases a compound called acetaldehyde, a toxic and volatile compound, which has a strong, recognisable scent of stale booze. (One study showed police officers could tell if people had drunk just from their mouth odour between 60 and 85% of the time, depending on how much they had had.) And since alcohol makes you dehydrated and reduces your saliva flow, it allows for more bacteria to hang around in your mouth, causing bad breath to persist.
