Bitter Sour Taste in Mouth Causes Poor Gut Health: If you feel sour or bitter taste in your mouth as soon as you wake up in the morning, then it is not right to take it lightly. Generally, the morning should start fresh, because the body repairs itself during the night.

But having such a taste every day can be a sign that some stomach related problem is gradually increasing.

Deep connection between taste of mouth and stomach

Both Ayurveda and modern medicine believe that the root of many problems occurring in the mouth lies in the stomach. If the stomach does not function properly, its effect is first visible on the taste of the mouth. Sour or bitter taste every morning is an indication that disturbances have started in the digestive system.

Acid reflux and pitta dosha become major reasons

Modern medicine associates it with acid reflux, in which stomach acid starts moving upward. Whereas Ayurveda considers it to be an increase of Pitta dosha. When bile increases in the body, not only does it cause burning sensation in the stomach, but in the long run, weakness of bones and joints can also be seen.

These habits increase stomach problems

Eating food late at night, consumption of alcohol and tobacco, staying hungry for a long time and wrong eating habits are the main reasons for increased acid in the stomach. Apart from this, liver not functioning properly and weakening of digestive fire can also cause bitter taste in the mouth.

Triphala powder can provide relief

In Ayurveda, Triphala powder is considered a panacea for many stomach problems. Taking half a spoon of Triphala powder with lukewarm water at night keeps the stomach clean in the morning and calms Pitta dosha. Regular consumption can also provide relief from acidity problem.

Small changes in eating habits and lifestyle

Avoid eating late at night and try to have your meal before sunset. Instead of lying down immediately after eating, take a walk for a while and turn to your left side while sleeping. Drinking water kept in a copper vessel in the morning calms the stomach acid and also detoxifies the body.
