Hello All,
Has anyone else experienced bad breath when they increase their fruit intake? I have always eaten a large amount of daily fruit and veg but when I went onto a paleo diet I also increased my intake of both. My partner was reporting to me that I had quite bad breath in the morning and at times throughout the day (not really something a gal likes to hear but I'd rather know than not know). I could sense a smell that was like acetone. 
While on an unrelated visit I asked my GP (he specialises in holisitc and nutritional medicine) about this and he suggested that the fruit might be causing the bad breath and he mentioned the word fermentation. I have decreased the amount of fruit to one piece a day and the problem seems to have resolved (confirmed by my partner - who is relieved!). Has anyone else experienced or heard of this?
Cheers e
