Do nuts cause dryness of mouth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Eating nuts can dry out your mouth while chewing them, since nuts are very dry by nature and they sop up the saliva in your mouth, but nuts themselves do not cause dry mouth. Dry mouth can be caused by medications you take or a natural reduction in salivary production.
