The body doesn't make foul odors. Sweet foods cause a foul taste on the tongue. As blood sugar levels rise, saliva becomes sweet, feeding bacteria in the mouth. These bacteria produce waste products that have a foul odor. Bacteria will also feed on a thick tongue coating in the back of the mouth, if you have one. Tooth decay, as well as crowns, food stuck in braces or dentures may cause a foul taste.

A foul taste may come from a respiratory or sinus infection, especially if there is yellow or green mucus present. Foul taste could also be a sign of toxicity from other places in the body. The body releases toxins through the respiratory tract. The first step is finding the source of the toxins. Perhaps a candida infection, or fermenting food in the digestive tract? Ayurveda offers numerous techniques to clear toxins (called Ama) from the body.
