Breath smells like alcohol

Bad breath is a phenomenon that is unique to each person. There are many types of breath because everyone's living habits are different. For example, people who often eat big fish and meat have a slightly strong and smelly breath, while people who like to eat vegetables have relatively fresh breath. Some people may experience changes in breath due to illness. For example, why does your breath smell like alcohol? Let’s take a look at the explanation below.

It is possible that endocrine system diseases are caused by long-term diet and lifestyle factors, such as diabetic ketoacidosis, which can easily cause the breath to have an odor of alcohol.

It is recommended to go to the hospital in time to test blood routine, blood sugar, glycosylated hemoglobin, ketone bodies and other indicators, and actively take drug treatment after clarifying the cause. In addition, you should pay attention to get more rest, eat a light diet, avoid eating raw, cold and greasy foods, and avoid excessive fatigue and staying up late.

It is necessary to go to the hospital for a relevant examination because the presence of certain diseases can cause the smell of alcohol on the breath, such as diabetes, liver disease, kidney disease, etc. It is more likely that ketoacidosis is caused by long-term diet and lifestyle factors, which can easily lead to a similar series of clinical manifestations. It is recommended to go to the hospital for a check-up in time, and use blood tests, lactic acid tests and other methods to promptly determine the cause of the disease, and then actively treat it with medication. In addition, you should pay attention to getting more rest, eating a light diet, and avoiding excessive fatigue in the near future.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this is mainly caused by damp heat, which includes damp heat in the liver and gallbladder and stomach heat. Bitterness in the mouth due to damp heat in the liver and gallbladder may be caused by inflammation in the liver and gallbladder. Bitterness in the mouth caused by stomach heat, some people do not have inflammation in the liver and gallbladder, but due to unreasonable diet and excessive consumption of spicy food, it can also cause bitterness in the mouth. At the same time, some people with chronic diseases (such as diabetes) will also have bitterness in the mouth. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to oral hygiene. If it lasts for a long time, it is best to go to the hospital for a detailed examination, and it is better to carry out targeted treatment after the diagnosis is confirmed.
