Okay, weird ?, but does being in deep ketosis make your mouth salivate like crazy?

I've restarted (once again) and my mouth keeps watering even though I'm eating plenty and am not technically hungry. It's beyond annoying!

Anyone else have this weird symptom?

I don't have that problem but I have found the deeper into ketosis you get, the worse your mouth taste. Best to take mints with you if you are going to be around people.

Mostly I have a metallic or sweet taste which are both annoying, but not enough to make me quit. It was suggested to me to lower my protein intake when I had a really bad taste in my mouth and it seemed to work.
