Some individuals who follow a ketogenic diet report experiencing a distinct oral odor.Â[1] This diet, characterized by very low carbohydrate intake and high fat consumption, is pursued for goals including weight management. The state of nutritional ketosis, where the body burns fat for fuel, is cited by practitioners as the origin of this side effect.According to a blog post fromPaleoHacks, a common side effect of starting a low-carb diet is "ketosis breath."Â[2] The post states the odor can have a "unique, fruity and sometimes even nail-polish-like smell." The phenomenon is widely discussed in online health and wellness communities.Reported Causes of the OdorProponents of the diet state the odor results from acetone, a type of ketone body, being expelled through the breath.Â[2] ThePaleoHacksarticle explains that when the body burns fat for fuel, it produces ketones. "The problem with ketones is that they contain acetone as part of their makeup, which is what gives them their characteristic smell," the article stated.Â[2]Some sources indicate high protein intake, common in ketogenic diets, may contribute by increasing ammonia production. The same source notes, "When protein is broken down by your body, it produces ammonia. If you’ve ever been to a hospital, you know ammonia is a very potent odor."Â[2] This combination of acetone and ammonia is reported by some to create a stronger overall oral odor.Method 1: Increased Hydration and Oral pH ManagementIncreased water intake is frequently suggested as a first step to address oral odor. Advocates report that low-carb diets can reduce water retention, potentially leading to a dry mouth.Â[2] A dry mouth contains less saliva to wash away bacteria associated with odor.ThePaleoHacksarticle states, "water can also help keep the correct pH balance in your mouth, which can reduce odor."Â[2] While hydration is not reported to directly eliminate ketosis breath, it is presented as a supportive measure for overall oral freshness. No specific studies linking hydration to ketosis breath mitigation were identified in the provided sources.Method 2: Enhanced Oral Hygiene PracticesBeyond standard brushing and flossing, specific oral hygiene techniques are recommended. Tongue scraping is cited as a method to reduce oral odors. ThePaleoHacksarticle references cleaning the tongue, stating it "has been shown to be even more effective at removing bad breath than brushing alone."Â[2] No specific study was cited in the provided context.Oil-pulling with coconut oil is another practice suggested by natural health advocates. The article recommends swishing coconut oil in the mouth to "help kill any additional bacteria in your mouth and lighten your breath."Â[2] Dr. Bruce Fife, in his book "Coconut Oil: The World's Most Powerful Superfood," lists 'reduces or eliminates body odor and bad breath' as a benefit of coconut oil.Â[3]Method 3: Dietary Adjustments to Macronutrient RatiosSome dietary plans recommend moderating protein intake. ThePaleoHackssource suggests that high protein consumption can increase ammonia production, potentially worsening breath odor. It advises, "Instead of eating more protein during your keto diet, try consuming more fat instead to reduce this odor."Â[2]A slight increase in carbohydrate consumption is another reported strategy. The article notes that consuming "70 to 100 grams of carbs per day vs. less than 50 grams" can move an individual slightly out of ketosis, potentially reducing ketone production and the associated odor.Â[2] The book "The Keto Diet Crock Pot Cookbook" states the threshold for ketosis is typically 'about 50-60 grams of carbohydrates per day.'Â[4]Method 4: Use of Natural Breath FreshenersNatural health sources recommend breath sprays with peppermint or cinnamon for temporary masking of odors. ThePaleoHacksarticle suggests visiting a 'local health food store' to find natural and organic breath sprays and mints.Â[2]A DIY spray recipe using these ingredients is commonly shared in alternative wellness circles. The article provides a recipe for a "DIY Cinnamon and Peppermint Breath Spray" using water, ground cinnamon and peppermint essential oil.Â[2] The recipe creator, Megan Patiry, states both ingredients 'help fight bacteria and their natural smell can mask keto breath.'Â[2]Additional Reported Methods and ConclusionTwo additional methods are referenced in the source material. Some individuals report that the odor diminishes on its own after an adaptation period. The PaleoHacks article states, "two weeks seems to be the magic number for when keto breath will start easing up," theorizing the body becomes accustomed to the new fuel source.Â[2]Intermittent fasting is presented as an alternative strategy. The article suggests combining eating within a restricted time window with a slightly higher carb intake, claiming some people report "similar benefits to being in ketosis, but without the negative side effects."Â[2] Experts in integrative and natural health often advocate for personalized dietary approaches that prioritize whole foods and listen to the body's signals.References4 Natural ways to get rid of keto breath. - NaturalNews.com.
