I always feel dry and bitter mouth at night. What's going on?

There are many male friends in life who always feel dry and bitter mouth when they go to bed at night, and even drinking a lot of water still doesn't help. In fact, in my opinion, this situation may be a sign of disease. Next, I will analyze the reasons for dry and bitter mouth at night.

1. Unhealthy lifestyle and diet

In daily life, overwork, high mental stress from work, unreasonable and irregular diet, lack of activity, etc. can easily cause gastrointestinal stagnation. If the food stays in the gastrointestinal tract for too long, it can easily cause symptoms of dry mouth and bitter taste.

2. Gastrointestinal diseases

Clinical Chinese medicine practitioners say that dry mouth and bitter taste may be a warning sign of digestive system problems. Patients are very likely to have gastrointestinal dysfunction, gastrointestinal inflammation, peptic ulcers, etc. Some patients with liver and gallbladder diseases also experience varying degrees of dry mouth and bitter taste.

3. Lack of vitamin B2

In addition, Chinese medicine indicates that some people who lack vitamin B2, have reduced saliva, or are dehydrated will also have different symptoms of dry mouth and bitter taste in the mouth. When dry mouth and bitter taste in the mouth appear clinically, symptoms such as heartburn, acid reflux, and burning in the stomach are common. Clinical treatment of Chinese medicine starts with harmonizing the functions of the spleen and stomach, liver and stomach, and other internal organs. It uses clearing heat, replenishing deficiency, and harmonizing the spleen and stomach, liver and stomach to achieve syndrome differentiation and treatment, comprehensively regulate the balance of the five internal organs, and remove dampness and heat in the body, so as to eliminate the symptoms of dry mouth and bitter taste in the mouth.
