If you often have bitter and dry mouth, an old Chinese doctor will tell you the reason!

Symptoms of dry mouth and bitter taste will not occur when the human body is in a very healthy state. If such symptoms suddenly appear one day, then everyone must be careful, because dry mouth and bitter taste may be caused by disease. If necessary, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

What causes dry mouth and bitter taste?

1. Dry mouth and bitter taste in the mouth, which is called Shaoyang disease in traditional Chinese medicine, is generally referred to as getting angry, damp heat, and belongs to the fire of liver and gallbladder. Traditional Chinese medicine says that the liver and gallbladder are exterior and interior, and bitter mouth is caused by the overflow of gallbladder qi, because bile is bitter, so liver and gallbladder fire can easily cause bitter mouth. The gallbladder meridian belongs to the Shaoyang meridian in traditional Chinese medicine, which has fire, and fire can easily damage body fluids, so the mouth will also become dry at the same time.

2. In addition, some diseases can also cause bitter taste in the mouth, such as digestive system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system diseases, oral diseases, infectious diseases, and tumors; other factors such as fatigue, excessive smoking, and alcoholism can also cause bitter taste and dry mouth.

3. When the human body is "on fire", it is in a sub-healthy state. Improper use of medicines and blindly "reducing fire" may be counterproductive. In addition, due to the different symptoms of "on fire", different parts of the body, and different organs, it is best for Chinese medicine practitioners to differentiate and prescribe medicines for taking Chinese medicine to "reduce fire". Especially for women, they should not use cold medicines for "reducing fire" indiscriminately. If the medicine is not suitable for the symptom, it will not only fail to "reduce fire", but will be harmful to the body.

Taking vitamin C tablets can relieve bitter taste in the mouth
