If you are struggling with taste changes the following may help:
- If you are using a steroid inhaler always rinse your mouth and gargle with water after use, this helps to prevent oral thrush.
- Regularly clean teeth/ dentures, use mouth wash and try and floss if possible.
- Don’t be afraid to try new foods.
- Try sharp or spicy foods that have stronger flavour.
- Experiment with seasoning (suggestions on next page).
- If you have gone off a particular food, re-try it again after a couple of weeks as your taste may have changed again.
