Taste Buds...

[puggirl]

Well, this is a developed issues for me I guess. Over the past few years my taste has been weird. I Cant stand having any taste of food in my mouth after I eat I have to brush my teeth or have gum. I dont like to drink anything with flavor with dinner just water. Sometimes foods that I eat all the time will have a different flavor in my mouth. I was just curious if anyone else had issues like this. Who knows it's probably a MENTAL thing more then a taste thing.

I had something like this happen to me, all food I ate tasted weird. I couldn't smell properly and my doctor ran lots of tests but it didn't go away until I went on an elimination diet and figured out it was corn causing it.

Hope you figure it out

Actually it isn't necessarily mental. It is called Dysgeusia, and it has been noted to have increased frequency in celiac disease, is caused by a B3 (niacin), B12, or Zinc deficiency. celiac disease related dygeusia resolves on a gluten-free diet. There are other causes for this however, so you should most certainly mention it to your doctor. Diabetes, hypothyroidism, adrenal cortical, hypertension, and several other associates celiac disease disorders can cause this. (Libonati, Recognizing Celiac Disease, ©2007, pp 216)
