Bad taste: Lots of reasons for bad taste including, but not limited to, infected teeth/gums/sinuses/tonsils/throat/nasal passages, gastro-intestinal malfunction, allergies, food/bacteria between teeth (failure to floss), failure to brush 2x/day for 2 FULL minutes by the clock change in diet/meds/supplements, and so many other things. See both Dentist & Physician for screening exams.
