What Causes Consistent Bad Breath?

I have consistent bad breath even after just brushing my teeth. I brush longer than anyone, use mouthwash, I do not smoke nor drink alcohol and all to no avail. I drink a lot of diet soda and have an intolerance to milk. Is this what is creating my consistent bad breath?

Its good that you are maintaing your oral hygeine. Bad breaths are also caused by carious teeth that either need simple fillings or root canal treatment (rct) or by calculus deposition that won't get resolved by manual brushing or mouth wash. I would suggest that you undergo a thorough dental examination at the earliest. Hope this answers your query.
