Eat more vegetables, fruits and melons rich in chlorophyll, such as lettuce, rapeseed, etc. Avoid eating too much food with strong odor, irritation and indigestible food. These foods will not only stimulate the gastrointestinal mucosa to produce excessive acid, but also easily cause bad breath due to indigestion.
