Champex® is a dietary supplement containing extract of Agaricus bisporus mushroom. Produced entirely in Japan by a consistently-innovative company, it supports immune health, and above all, helps to fight bad breath.
Halitosis is the scientific name for bad breath. Though not a disease, it’s a common problem which affects everyone at some point in their life.
There are a number of potential causes but most often, it’s simply the result of a degradation process. Under the influence of various physicochemical factors, oral and gut bacteria convert certain nutrients (mostly peptides or amino acids such as cysteine, methionine and tryptophan) into malodorous compounds called volatile sulphur compounds (VSC).
The microbes most associated with producing bad breath are anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria. Almost 90% of foul-smelling gases are made of hydrogen sulphide (which smells like rotten eggs), but there is also methyl mercaptan or methanethiol (with the smell of putrid cabbage), dimethyl sulphide (decomposing vegetables) and dimethyl disulphide (rancid cabbage) (1).
However, there are other types of bad breath:
Champex® contains amino acids (glutamic acid, alanine, threonine, leucine and serine) crucial for helping to neutralise the intestinal ammonia and sulphur that cause certain types of body odour. In one scientific study (2), taking Champex® for 14 days reduced concentrations of putrid substances by 40% to 60% compared with initial levels.
We recommend one capsule to be taken with each meal. If necessary, you can take up to 6 capsules a day. In studies on Champex® (5), 30 days’ consecutive supplementation was often the duration tested.
Throughout the supplementation period, we recommend avoiding asparagus, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, excessive consumption of eggs and fish, garlic, and raw onions.
A natural tip for fighting bad breath is to mix together 6 drops of essential oil of lemon, 6 of essential oil of noble laurel and 5ml of vegetable oil. Place 5 drops of this mixture on your tongue, 6-7 times a day.
It’s worth noting that in 80% of cases, bad breath is caused by a problem with the teeth or gums. To remedy this, we recommend:

Ma fille a un traitement lourd pour son epilepsie et avait un taux d,'amoniemie très élevé. Avec la prise régulière demu champex on taux est maintenu à la normale. Par contre oui le produit est un peu cher et cela demande un sacrifice financier pas toujours évident

Sous réserve d'évaluer avec plus de sécurité l'effet sur une insuffisance rénale encore légère mais installée, c'est un produit excellent dont on peut mesurer les effets directement par la masse supplémentaire d'évacuations... J'aimerais que soient plus souvent évoqués en règle générale l'éventualité d'un risque sur les reins.
