pylori: search
The human mouth is, on average, home to some 600 different species of bacteria that can either be beneficial to us, as is the case with bacteria that give our foods their taste and scent, or very harmful, as is the case with Helicobacter pylori, the culprit behind stomach ulcers and gastric cancer. Recently, researchers managed to establish that H. pylori also lives in the mouth, producing volatile compounds, which create bad breath.
