I have a real salty taste in my mouth and all food items, including water, coffee, tea, soda and milk has a putrid taste. I've lost 40 pounds in the last three weeks because if I eat very much I through-up.
Thats how bad the food taste.

I would consider seeing your MD first and if you can not get an answer I think you need to see your dentist. I have no idea what this might be coming from.
