Whether you’re prepping for a hot date (make out session expected) or meeting new potential business partners, nothing kills the mood (or the deal) faster than bad breath. And while there are those few times when we know we’ve had an untimely onion bagel or a garlicky vegetable dish, most of the time, people with bad breath don’t even know it. To ensure you’re not one of the 65 million Americans with bad breath (yes, it’s really that big of a problem!), Dr. Greg Diamond of New York City’s The Diamond-Schlesinger Group fills us in on how to check your breath (no, breathing into your palm doesn’t work!) and the best ways to tackle bad breath.
