Re: Nasty Taste
Some people, when they are in ketosis, get that funny taste and bad breath. I carry a small bottle of mouthwash with me and I have one at work as well. When they are empty, I take them home and refill.
You can look for sugar-free mints...sweetened with Splenda if you are lucky enough to find them...I think Blitz makes some. I've used Frisk once in a while because they are tiny and I can pop one in my mouth at work and not look like I've got a mouthful.
I prefer using things that are strongly flavoured so they don't remind me of candy in any way shape or form....so keep flavour in mind when you are choosing a breath freshener. -
Re: Nasty Taste
The bad breath is no big deal and it won't last. It merely means you are shifting into ketosis. Relax and keep going.

Re: Nasty Taste
I am just paranoid about my breath! But, it seems to be passing too along with all of the other stuff Dr. Atkins says in the book that will pass! I guess, a good way to look at it - as I am - is that if you're having these symptoms, then you're doing something right.
THIS TIME and for the LAST TIME, I will do this!!

Re: Nasty Taste
Parsley oil works very well, but you will have an aftertaste of parsley.

If you read and listen to the book and its advice, you will succeed. Nothing worth having ever came easy.
