In today’s videos we are going to talk about the sensation of bitter taste in mouth.
We all have experienced it in our lives at least for once. Sometimes we fail to identify the cause of it. So I am here to help you identify the cause of the bitter taste in your mouth.
For those who suffer from this know are familiar with the sensation very well. It feels like you are consuming a bitter gourd or black coffee. Moreover, this kind of taste persists even after brushing your teeth.
There could be many potential causes of this situation. Let us discuss them.
Poor Oral hygiene - The most common cause of it is bad practice of oral cleaning. Microorganisms spread to teeth and gums causing bad breath and weird taste in mouth.
But in case your oral health is just fine and you don’t know where it is coming from, there are some other potential causes of it:
1. Oral thrush - the causative organism in this case is candida. For those of you who love sugar, you got your companion because candida loves it too.
2. Pregnancy - Pregnant ladies tend to suffer with a bitter metallic taste in mouth due to the deficiency of zinc. It causes the palate to acquire lot of sensitivity in pregnancy.
3. Menopause - The shift in estrogen leads to many discomforts in the female body. Bitter taste in mouth is also one of them since estrogen affects the liver and results in its malfunction.
4. Gastroesophageal reflux - It occurs when the stomach acid goes up to the esophagus area and comes up in your mouth, causing that wierd bitter taste to persist in the mouth.
5. Liver malfunctioning- Liver acts as the security force against the toxins entering in our body. It detoxifies the poisons and other deadly toxins. When the liver fails to do its job, heavy metals and other poisonous substances increase the toxicity resulting in numerous symptoms and bitter taste is one of them.
6. Diabetes -Absence of glucose in the cells and its accumulation in the blood due to lack of insulin in the body, leads to a medical condition known as diabetic ketoacidosis. It causes larger amount of ketone bodies to accumulate in the body resulting in decrease of blood pH. This makes your taste sensation bitter.
7. Medications - Certain supplements like zinc, copper, etc. and medications like antibiotics, antidepressants or certain heart medications, etc. when used for a prolonged period of time may lead to such condition.
When should I get it tested?
It depends on the severity of the causes mentioned above.
If you are sensing bitter taste, in addition to nausea and constant dizziness.
Abdominal swelling
Pain in upper right part of the abdomen
Appearance of yellowish color in the eyes and skin
How can I get rid of it?
In case of oral thrush, the first thing that you need to do is cut off the intake of sugar and refined carbohydrates. The next thing that you can do is, put a non-dairy liquid probiotic in your mouth and swish it. These microorganisms are gonna take away all the food of poor candida making them starve to death.
All you have to do is make the living conditions poor for candida. You can use apple cider vinegar and sea salt in water to do the same.
In other medical conditions, you need to get them treated first with the help of your doctor. With it being just a symptom of those severe diseases, it will also be treated after the elimination of its root cause.
You can also prevent or get rid of it with some daily habits like:
Adopting healthy lifestyle
Healthy food
Stay hydrated
Citrus fruits in diet
Good oral hygiene
Detoxification drinks
I wonder if I'm the only person who experience bitter taste while or during a fever because I can't search for it everywhere.

In the spring most likely you will get hay fever which will give you postnasal drip which is the increase of mucus running in the back of your throat which is perfect for bacteria causing bitter taste in mouth also cold/flu have the same effect there is no cure. you just have to wait until the conditions subside which can take weeks to months.antihistamines may also help

Me too, please anyone help!

What happened
I wonder if the melatonin im taking is causing this nasty taste in my mouth. It’s also making my body odor weird too. Anyone else with this issue taking melatonin? I have been taking it for a while though so maybe I have been taking it too long. My skin is super oily too it’s so strange. I wish I knew what’s wrong with me.
I took Melatonin only once and had a metallic taste from it.
@@joansmith1195 omg really, I wonder how many others get this issue 🤔
@@joansmith1195 you are female yeah? I’m female and going through perimenopause. I think that makes it worse as the declining hormones with meno are hell in itself and then melatonin apparently can inhibit your estrogen etc. I wish I had never started taking it. My sleep issues are worse since I started taking it 🤦🏻♀️

I have a bad taste in my mouth and a bad smell in my nose at the same time.
A bitter taste in the mouth and a bad smell in the nose can have various causes, and it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for a comprehensive evaluation. Potential reasons for a bitter taste in the mouth include gastrointestinal issues, dental problems, sinus infections, or medication side effects. The bad smell in the nose could be associated with sinus infections, nasal congestion, or other nasal issues. Conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may contribute to both symptoms. It's crucial to consider overall health, oral hygiene, and any recent changes in diet or medications. Seeking medical advice will help identify the underlying cause and guide appropriate treatment for relief from these symptoms.
@@MedicalCentric I’m recovering from a cold so that’s probably why. The bad smell in my nose and the taste in my mouth are both getting weaker fortunately.
@Hamza.Khaliq hey man im recovering too and whenever I taste it, it feels like I'm gonna vomit. Do you have any help?
what about eggs? I have eaten it about 9 hours and I have a disgusting after-taste
It's possible that the eggs you ate may have been spoiled, leading to the bitter aftertaste.
