A member asked:
I always taste syrup in my mouth more when i wake up for the last month
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Syrup taste: The most common cause of a "syrup taste" is the presence of ketones. Ketones are a product of the metabolism of fat. When you're body does not have enough sugar to burn, it burns fat instead and makes ketones. Ketones are most commonly present in people who have been fasting, drinking a lot of alcohol, or have diabetes.
