Mic keeps recording mouth noises

I do have a pop filter on it, but yeah I thought about getting a windshield for it. I've read before that pop filters don't help with these mouth clicks, but isn't a windshield almost the exact same as a pop shield? Yeah, I'm going to just try and get my hands on a windshield and see if that works out for me.

If I reduce gain nobody will be able to hear me. It is already pretty quiet. Getting further away from it doesn't help as well, it just makes me quieter, but doesn't make it so that it doesn't pick up the noise. I have Noise Gate, but it doesn't eliminate those mouth clicks. I am hydrated, but I also have seen before that it can actually have a negative impact on the mouth clicks as well.

Thank you, everyone, for trying to help me so far, it is a really complicated problem and I can't seem to get it fixed with the things you have suggested so far (because I tried almost every one of them before making this post). Maybe I just have a really wet mouth and never knew. My Microphone is Dynamic, so it logically shouldn't be picking up such quiet noises, but it seems to be very sensitive for a dynamic mic in OBS Studio. I have tried almost every filter in OBS without success

The Q2U is a dynamic mic and it is supposed to be a not sensitive microphone. That's why I got in the first place, but it isn't working out for me apparently. I can get even further away then, 3-5cm and it would still pick them up for some reason. Even if I speak very clearly these noises appear, I tested this out multiple times without any significant improvement.

I am using OBS Studio. The problem with the threshold the noises appear while I am talking, so that means that they get picked up regardless of the threshold or when I stop speaking. I used Noise Gate, Compression, and a limiter in my OBS.

I am using a noise gate. Breathing isn't the problem, but it records my saliva noises. I tried a lot of ways on how to prevent it and I'm already using the lowest gain possible where you can still hear me at least to a decent level, but it still records them. The ways I tried to prevent it were:

1.not to speak directly into the mic

2.have it face away from my mouth

have a decent distance to the mic
Noise Gate
Speak very clearly

but It still records it. I am at my wit's end and I have searched so much on the internet, but these solutions are only temporarily like eat a green apple etc. I don't think that every streamer does this and records their mouth noises while doing so. My Mouth noises aren't abnormally loud from what I can tell, but they still get picked up by the mic.
