    No mints? Here's help.

    Want some sweeter breath?

    Women's Day says that you don't need a breath mint; try grabbing an apple, some yogurt, or parsley!

    Yep- apples can help remove plaque from your teeth, and the fruit helps you produce more saliva, which can stop bad breath. The American Dietetic Association claims that people who ate yogurt every day for 6 weeks were able to decrease levels of smelly hydrogen sulfide by 80%, and as for parsley? Turns out the sprig isn't just for decoration; it contains chlorophyll, which helps freshen your breath from the inside out.
