PROBLEM: Bad breath?

Try: crunching

Raw crunchy foods clean the teeth. Apples contain pectin, which helps control food odours and promotes saliva production. Cinnamon is antimicrobial. Active cultures in yoghurt help reduce odour-causing bacteria in the mouth.

Get these: one medium apple, chunked; a cup of grated carrot; a cup of diced celery; a half cup of dried cranberries and another of crushed walnuts; five tablespoonfuls of plain non-fat yoghurt; and some ground cinnamon.

Mix all in a large bowl, add the yoghurt to soften the mixture, sprinkle on the cinnamon and get crunching.
