That is the reason why they indulge into various diet plans just to make sure if it is going to work or not, even if this can be very challenging.

Ordinarily, the diets that most of us indulge to results to bad breath, and it can be somewhat aggravating.

This is one unpleasant side effect that one may encounter when he or she is in a protein diet. This is because there is not much presence of carbohydrates in the diet itself.

Now since our body process involves the conversion of energy and carbohydrates is one of the main components involved in the process, the body uses substitute components to convert such as proteins and fats which when converted, may produce chemicals such as ketones. Ketones are known to be responsible for that unpleasant odor that can either be noticeable as you exhale air coming out from your body, or may be a noticeable foul odor in any other part of your body.

This could be very alarming to those who are on a low carb diet, and at the same time, exercising their way through to firm up those muscles and lose weight. Since they need to shed off those pounds, they would have to religiously follow their low carb diet.

Together with the diet itself, one needs to do frequent exercises to lose weight and keep the muscles going. As you do this on a regular basis, you then have to replenish your protein content. The same process goes on as you continuously produce ketones which is being released in your body. Next thing you know is that you already have that unpleasant smell coming out from your mouth.

Yes of course, you will definitely look slimmer by indulging yourself with these low carb diet plans, but the thing here is, would you be able to keep up with that unpleasant smell all the time?
