First of all get your mouth, nose, throat and abdomen examined. One of the above can be a problem for halitosis. Treatment of the problem will itself cure it. Also focus on tongue cleaning with brushing.

Hi, there are various reasons of bad breath, like impurities in blood, inefficient digestive system, dry mouth (lack of saliva production), gum disease, cavities, plaque and tartar formation around teeth and gums, kind of diet, improper brushing / cleaning of mouth etc. I would advise you to get a thorough physical and dental examination to rule out the cause of bad breath and to solve it permanently. Regards
