The last few times that I have been
scratched or cut, I noticed that my blood
has a very strong smell of metal. Why???
I am 55y/o if that makes any difference.
Thanks for any info.

I can help you to your problem. I will
recommend you Neem Aura neem leaf capsule.
Neem leaf is traditionally used in the
ayurvedic tradition as a tonic and blood
cleanser, and is considered to be cooling
to counteract Pitta (fire element)
imbalances.

Metal taste Posted: 01-28-08 15:21pm
I have a similar problem, which I was
actually intending to make a topic about
before I seen your topic.
So, my problem is that my blood -tastes-
like metal. When I eat canned foods, I
taste metal. Sometime I taste metal when I
put cutlery in my mouth. Sometimes I taste
metal when I eat foods with a high iron
content. And sometimes when I do extensive
exercising.
This began happening about a year ago. The
first time I had the taste of metal in my
mouth is when I was playing outdoor
hockey. I'm guessing this is because the
increase of blood pressure. After this
situation, it became more frequent.
It began when I was staying at a rural
residence. The maintenance man told me not
to drink the tap water, as he was fixing
the plumbing or something, and the water
was unsafe to drink in the meantime. I
ended up drinking some of the tap water.
I was wondering if this incident could be
related to the metal taste I get in my
mouth, and if I could have possibly
contracted lead poisoning?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanks.

blood smells like metal because it's high
in iron.
if you have a metal taste in your mouth,
take a pregnancy test.
if you taste or smell 'metal' when you are
exercising, it's probably because your
blood pressure is rising.
I'm the same way - I have very sensitive
sense of taste and smell.
If you think you should eat healthier,
fresher foods, and clean water, then you
should start eating better - only you know
your body.
