Not a nice title, but does anyone else suffer from overly salty tasting saliva?

I ask because I was researching hair loss etc and was reading about cortisol (stress hormone) which is released when you are in a constant state of stress, which can lead to hair loss (and a big belly). Anyhoo, it turns out that in this one report this guy had high cortisol levels and salty saliva was one of his symptoms.

I am going to get my adrenal levels tested to see if this applies to me, hopefully it will help with my hair growth and losing this flabby gut I seem to have accumulated.:eyebrows:

Wasn't sure where to post this so move me if you will...

I don't know much about salty saliva, but if your adrenals are fine, you might try going wheat and gluten free, it's quite good at getting rid of belly fat and also various aches and pains. There is a book called Wheat Belly which is quite an interesting read, here is the website: http://www.wheatbellyblog.com/

That sounds like it could be it!

Here's hoping you find a solution to your hair issues. :D
I know how frustrating it can be sometimes...
