“Swelling and blockage in the salivary ducts can impair salivary flow” says Dr. You have a sinus infectionĪs if a stuffy nose, sore throat, and headache weren’t enough, a sinus infection may also be a reason why your mouth tastes metallic. Since poor oral hygiene can lead to infection or periodontal disease, that’s why it is important to brush and floss regularly and keep up with your routine dental visits, according Gary Silverstrom D.D.S. “With presence of infection, blood flow to the tongue may be reduced, taste buds may become blocked or saliva output can decrease which also impacts taste buds and results in impairment of taste,” says Dr. Over time, you may develop gum disease, also known as gingivitis, which puts you at risk for infections like periodontitis. Skipping brushing and flossing doesn’t just give you stinky breath and cavities. “Multivitamins may contain high amounts of metals, which cause taste disruption by disrupting ion channels that signal our perception of taste,” says Donald Ford, MD, a family medicine physician at the Cleveland Clinic.Īside from multivitamins, cold medicines and prenatal vitamins with high amounts of copper, zinc, chromium, calcium, or iron, could all be causing the metallic taste. You’re taking over-the-counter meds or vitamins And still others can muck up the signals your taste buds sends to your brain, which makes you perceive a metallic taste.
Other drugs may contain metals that are excreted through your saliva. Some cause dry mouth, which subsequently disturbs taste by decreasing the amount of saliva you produce, says Summer Allen, MD, a family medicine physician at the Mayo Clinic.

At this point, the spectators are very excited and when he swaps the coin with the real one, no one is in a position to notice. Blaine seems to spit the other part of the coin back to its place but that is not the case, all he does is release the rubber band and the coin is restored. The next trick is making the coin whole again. Swapping items especially coins is a technique all magicians perfect with time.When Blaine pretends to bite the coin, he is actually folding the coin with his fingers. When the spectator hands him their coin, he cleverly swaps the real coin with the gimmicked one. The gimmicked coin is already in two parts attached by some rubber bands so that it can fold and unfold. So, now we know it’s a trick, but how did he pull it off? This trick involved a gimmicked coin. It’s obvious that no one can really bite off part of a quarter. This is a very simple trick when you understand everything that is happening in the video.
