i think i'm in ketosis? it's a metalic taste and can't seem to drink it away or bru**** away. i'm getting a minimum of 48 ounces a day and still seem thirsty. is that normal? every day things improve but i'm still lacking energy. i just want to sleep.

I have had that too Lisa. I have some sugar free candies with low sugar alcohol in it and they give a little relief.

Yuppers. Got it too. Personally I think this nastiness is part of nausea problem.  I started sucking on the nsa fruit pops today, that has given me some relief fromit.

how about buying some fresh parsley,  just nibble on a few leaves, helps with breath and taste, or mint.... Ketosis, good for you, weight drops here you come....

I haven't really noticed it much, but my hubby told me my breath smelled lol.  I bought some mint spray that I have been using.  Crystal recommended the dissolvable tabs that go on your tongue.  But I guess that is for breath and not taste. Hopefully it improves soon.

I brushed my teeth and tongue all the time when this was happening to me. I bought a new tooth brush every couple of weeks too. Everything tasted bad, even water. The only good thing is it does go away, so there is hope. I hope you get through this phase quickly. ~dori~

I also had that same problem and on occasion I still do. I keep sugarfree mints on me at all times.  It helps a little.  Hope this helps.  Missi
