Do You Have Stress Breath?



What’s more remarkable? That a pilot study published in the Journal of Breath Research claims to find odorous markers of stress, or that there is a scientific periodical called the Journal of Breath Research?

At any rate, the putative markers are indole and 2-methylpentadecane. You can download a copy here.

Exit question: How long before someone trains service dogs that alert to bad breath?
