I have a horrible taste in my mouth all the time, anyone else dealing with this? If you've dealt with this how do I get rid of it? It's at the point that I don't want to eat anything because the taste is so gross. Anyone help??? thanks! :confused_smile:

Never heard of this before. Could it be reflux?

I saw this issue in another post somewhere. I'll look for it for you. Someone there mentioned ketosis, a chemical change of some sort in the body.

I too had that problem. It goes away. Not much helped it that I tried.

Well, if it is Ketosis then the only "cure" for it would be ride it out o eat more carbs.

I wouldn't eat more carbs though. When on atkins, I had this and it went away after 3 weeks.

Somewhere here I read that a few people take papaya supplements to help the breath. I don't know if it works but there are some who swear by it.

thanks for the help everyone! chewing gum seems to help for a little while but not very long. guess i'll just have to suck it up! :smile:
