Offensive Bad Breath

My son for as long as I can remember has had bad breath. He is 8 now. It's not dental.  On our most recent visit to the doctor he receive a nose spray "Patanase" for allergies which will stop the smell but it leaves him tired and yawning in school.  I am not interested in a long term committment to using nose spray.  What other solution should I pursue?  I would like to get to the root of the problem.

Its probably candida stop sugar foods and drinks anything with sugar some chips and veggies and most fruits have it so avoid these and all red meats, grains pasta bread and all dairy milk cheese

And try eating chicken in soup grilled boiled baked  and raw veggies like celery cucumber Peace steamed or any veggies with no sugar  cooked with a little butter

And drink lots of water to flush all that bacteria out you body and before you do any of this  

Morning on empty stomach
Blend 10 centimeters of Aloe plant  and 1  whole lemon and 1 tea spoon honey with 16 oz water in a blender drain drink juice and drink lots of water then after a month reduce to  half lemon instead  of a whole one and repeat same step until you feel that bad taste is gone

Also take Probiotics I get them from renew life I get the 50 billion hope this works for you

One thing that I've found that really helps me, is a Neil Med Sinus Rinse. I have horrible sinus problems...which can lead to having breath problems. Its usually Post Nasal Drip that causes bad breath if its not dental related. But the rinse cleans out your sinuses and is really easy to use. Most local drug stores or Walmart, Kmart, Target etc. have them. Try going to http://www.neilmed.com/usa/products.php and take a look at their products. I'm in no way connected to them...just a sinus sufferer that knows a product that works!

Best of luck!
