Guest guest Posted June 11, 1999 Report Share Posted June 11, 1999 From what I have heard and read - bad breath is a sign of severe weight loss and has something to do with ketosis. Ketones are produced when losing weight rapidly and this is chat causes the bad breath. When a diabetic goes into a coma from lack of sugar in the blood one of the signs is a breath that smells like nail polish remover. It is acetone that smells so bad. The two are related I believe.
