Metalic taste

Re: Metalic taste

actually the metalic taste is your taste buds tasting the ketones in saliva which is a great thing as far as knowing you are in ketosis but the toothbrushing etc will not change it because it is the saliva not something stuck in your mouth.

Your taste buds will become desensetized to it over time much like they do to heavy salt use and/or heavy sugar use.

the sweetness of the water is actually the magnesium in it reacting with the taste buds a trick maky bottled water companies use to make their water taste sweet.

Re: Metalic taste

It's not that I'm worried about the extra 5 net carbs, it's just that I'm not much of a veggie eater normally, although I do like salads.

Therefore, I mostly have been eating lettuce. I also like stir fried garlic & brocolli and saute'd green beans w/bacon, which I have both of, a couple of times a week. I also have saute'd mushrooms too sometimes but that's about it.

I really don't liked steamed veggies... although I've been toying with the idea of making mashed califlower "potatoes".

Honestly ~ I don't know what other kinds of veggies to make.

since you like stir fried garlic and broccoli why not try adding a new veggie to that like a little onion or sweet peppers or even some of the mushroons you already like or green beans.

to your green beans with bacon add some other veggies one at a time too and soon you wil have a whole frying pan full of different veggies.

and if you like potatoes before you can cook radishes to take the place of them in pot roasts so you could even adda free to your green beans and be like grean beans and new potatoes.

if you like pumpkin pie then you will like pumpkin as a veggie with some pie spice and butter.
