                     FINALLY--A `CURE' FOR BAD BREATH!
                     ---------------------------------

  For years, the cause of chronic bad breath has been misdiagnosed, but a
  dentist's research has led to Thera Breath(TM), a dramatic treatment
  system that works naturally and effectively.

  These days, people spend a great deal of time or, their health and
  fitness. Exercise, nutrition and an emphasis on general wellness are
  important to people not only for medical reasons, but for social ones as
  well. Everyone wants to feel and look their best. Unfortunately, many
  people around the world suffer from a condition that cannot be cured at
  a health club, spa or even a hospital: chronic bad breath.

  It is estimated that over 80 million people worldwide suffer from bad
  breath, or halitosis. In the past, treatment has consisted of masking
  the odor with mouthwashes or mints, flooding the mouth with alcohol-
  based rinses, or the latest craze, popping pills that claim to cure the
  problem in the stomach. None of these treatments work, because halitosis
  is caused by bacteria on the back of the tongue and upper throat that
  produce sulfurous gases. The way to stop bad breath is to stop this
  process, and this is the secret behind the revolutionary Thera Breath(TM)
  system.

   You're the last to know.  Because halitosis originates in the mouth, it
  is virtually undetectable by your own sense of smell. You may notice a
  bitter, sour taste in your mouth or a whitish coating on the back of
  your tongue, but you generally find out there's a problem when a family
  member, friend or co-worker brings it to your attention. At that point,
  you need an effective, long-lasting and easy-to-use method of
  eliminating the problem. Without proper treatment, chronic bad breath
  can lead to a loss of confidence and self-esteem, and it can even result
  in depression. The problem can adversely affect your marriage, social
  life, career and relationships with family members. What's needed is a
  quick and effective treatment that works naturally with no side effects.


   A scientific solution.  As a dentist with a degree in bacteriology, Dr.
  Harold Katz has been keenly aware of the widespread nature of this
  problem. It was not until his daughter came to him about her halitosis,
  however, that he began to research the problem in earnest. His studies
  led him to an amazing discovery about the source of bad breath: it does
  not originate in the digestive system, and the food you eat has no
  direct effect on your breath.

  Certain foods, however, contribute to the production of sulfurous gases
  in the back of the mouth. Acids in coffee and proteins in dairy products
  exacerbate the problem. Mints and mouthwashes intended to mask or
  prevent bad breath actually worsen the condition because sugar and
  alcohol dry out the mouth. Many common medications for everything from
  high blood pressure to depression have the same drying effect, resulting
  in the formation of odorous gases. Mucous from post-nasal drip contains
  dense proteins that are full of sulfur. Some treatments for halitosis
  contain Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which can cause canker sores. The only
  effective means of eliminating the sulfur gas production is to introduce
  oxygen to the bacteria, causing them to produce tasteless, odorless
  sulfates.

   Effective, safe and natural.  At his California Breath Clinic, Dr. Katz
  has perfected a five-step program for treating halitosis. By using these
  products on a regular basis, chronic halitosis sufferers can end their
  problem. The TheraBreath system eliminates the problem of bitter or sour
  taste in the mouth, improves general periodontal health and will even
  whiten teeth. Unlike mouthwashes that are flavored heavily or designed
  to taste like medicine, TheraBreath has a mild spearmint flavor that
  tastes great and creates pleasant, neutral breath. It contains no SLS
  compounds, so you will not suffer from an increase in canker sores or
  any other side effects. These products are all-natural and simply
  introduce a greater amount of oxygen into the mouth's chemistry.

   Try it risk-free.  The TheraBreath System is an effective, safe and
  easy-to-use solution to a troubling problem, but don't just take our
  word for it. Try this product for yourself with our risk-free home
  trial. If you are not fully satisfied, just return it within 30 days for
  a full refund.

   HOW IT WORKS 

  We all have natural bacteria that live on the back of the tongue and aid
  in digestion. Under certain conditions, these bacteria will break down
  proteins and transform them into sulfides, which create odor and bad
  taste.

  Oxyd-VIII(TM) (A Proprietary Oxygenating Formula), the active ingredient
  in TheraBreath, transforms these odor-causing sulfides to sulfates,
  which have no taste or odor.

  Dear Dr. Katz,

  Our son has had a breath problem for years. He tried mouthwashes and
  mints. We took him to doctors and dentists, and even had his tonsils
  removed. Nothing worked, until he tried your product. I am so thankful
  and thrilled that you found the solution to his problem. You'll never
  know how much you changed his life!
