This isn't really a fully-developed idea, but this is what I learned from a class taught by an ex-paramedic:
If your breath smells like poop, it is not because you are using the wrong kind of toothpaste. You probably have fecal compaction.
If your breath smells like almonds, you are probably suffering from cyanide poisoning.
If your breath smells like wet, dead, decaying leaves, you probably have tuberculosis.
The breath of a diabetic person will smell like fruit if they don't get enough insulin.
That's wonderful information to know. It really is.
Any thoughts on or additions to breath-related medical diagnosis tools?
