Bad Breath from the Stomach Bad breath from the stomach is
extremely rare. The esophagus, which connects the stomach with the mouth,
is not an open tube, it is closed. Chunks of food (called a bolus) moves
down the esophagus similar to the way that a swallowed frog moves down a snake.
When one belches, a little bubble of air moves up the esophagus and
exits at the mouth. Although belches do smell, they are a once-in-a-while
phenomenon, the rest of the
time, the esophagus closes off the stomach. When bad breath strikes, the stomach is the last place to
look for an answer. |
