[Guest guest]

 

 

Hi All,

 

Has anyone heard of this happening?  Is there a nutrition-related cause?  She is

a friend of mine, and eating very well and has taken prenatals throughout...

 

Thanks!

http://www.medicinenet.com/taste_disorders/page2.htm - mentions a couple

medication causes but no specifics - insecticides, antibiotics and

antihistamines (aka suppressing the immune system)

think of it possibly as gastroparesis that isn't as bad - malnourishment that

isn't as advanced - pregnancy takes a lot of resources (need chocolate - and egg

yolks)

pregnant with a tongue problem translates in my mind into extra need for

magnesium and super B complex, zinc frequently can be issue in odd things in

addition to the prenatal - or beans, nuts, and seeds - including fenugreek -

good pregnant too (glossitis - B6)

http://www.scribd.com/doc/47085357/Nutrition48 goes into detail on the B's

I'll say it even if waste of time but please no extra D supplements the placenta

does that all on its own.

some WIC clients just didn't do well on any prenatals - whatever type tried -

so worked on food choices and empowered them to choose for themselves about a

supplement being mandatory or not.
