Today I have some items to share that I found improved the taste in my mouth:
1) Ginger Soother by the The Ginger People. I can only find it in town at Whole Foods
right now.
A little zip tastes great to me. And, it soothes my tummy - yummy.
2) Beeman's Original Pepsin Chewing Gum. It came in the mail from Marquita. I've almost finished it. As of now, I haven't found it in local stores. Maybe Hiller's?
3) Clark's Teaberry Gum. To me, it had a gentle cinnamon taste. Pretty good with chemo mouth. And I think that the chewing made my stomach relax a bit. Morgan & York didn't have Beeman's, but they did suggest the Clark's Teaberry.
4) Tom's of Maine - Fennel flavored toothpaste. I used to love this toothpaste but left it behind for a more common brand. Suddenly, I saw it on the shelf and immediately remembered that I used when I chemo the first time. It is TONS better than the peppermint flavor. My mouth tastes good for a long while after using it. Oddly, I don't normally care for fennel, anise, licorice type flavors, but I seem to with chemo mouth.
