"BreathPatrol" Breath Lozenges Create Controversy Stopping Everything From Alcohol to Onion Breath

February 26, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Lifestyle News
Elmira, ON - Canada — Long used by Germans leaving beerfests
and now sold throughout Canada, popular BreathPatrol(tm) breath
lozenges eliminate bad breath at its source, including the smell
of beer, cigarettes, onions, and garlic.

BreathPatrol uses a combination of sugar, starch, chlorophyll,
orange extract and lemon syrup. The ingredients are all natural
without additives or preservatives. The lozenge has a mild
orange flavor similar to a berry tea.

Chlorophyll eliminates the smell of alcohol, smoke, and strong
spices, working much more effectively than standard breath mints
which merely cover up bad breath. Independent reviewers have
judged BreathPatrol takes effect quickly and eliminates both bad
breath and related stomach gasses for one hour or more.

"Initially there was quite a controversy in Canada when law
enforcement and activist groups objected to BreathPatrol being
sold in places where alcohol is consumed," said Gerhard
Zielinsky whose company distributes BreathPatrol in North
America.

At the time, it was feared people would drink more thinking they
could cover up their behavior by eliminating the smell of alcohol
on their breath. But there is no evidence that happened. Now,
BeathPatrol is widely sold in stores, restaurants, and pubs
throughout Canada. Recently Zielinsky's firm began expanding
their product's awareness in the United States.

A BreathPatrol lozenge is placed between the gum and cheek. The
lozenge should be allowed to slowly dissolve to reach full
effectiveness. Chewing reduces the effect.

"Our modern diets include all kinds of foods that rely heavily on
onions, garlic, and spices. Lunch is delicious, but you want to
take care of your strong breath before you head back to the
office," Zielinsky said.

Without question, BreathPatrol's biggest audience are people who
would like to enjoy a drink, then erase the alcohol smell from
their breath. "Beer breath is a romantic turn-off for both men
and women," Zielinsky said.

BreathPatrol was created in Germany after a decade of laboratory
experimentation. It turned out the size of the lozenge had to be
carefully controlled in order to maintain effectiveness. If the
lozenge is larger or smaller, the user doesn't get the right
amount of active ingredients.

What has been BreathPatrol's biggest obstacle? "People
initially think the lozenge is like a breath mint, a candy that
lays a minty smell on top of the odor. Then after trying
BreathPatrol people realize food, smoke, and alcohol odor is
completely eliminated," Zielinsky said.
