Spinach made my teeth weird.

[ShoppGirl 4,553]

I am a little over two months post SADI and I have been trying new fruits and veggies and trying ones I didn’t like before and finding that aside from mushrooms which was a texture thing I don’t mind them as much. Well I have been eating spinach a handful of times with my egg white omelette for lunch since surgery. This time, though, it made my teeth (my whole mouth actually) really really dry and tasted funny. I had to google to see what was going on. It’s a certain acid that’s in the spinach that is usually reduced when you cook it but apparently this batch of spinach had more or something. I brushed my teeth and had a glass of Water and it’s reduced significantly but It was just really weird. I seriously thought maybe I was having a stroke or something and that was the metallic taste people talk about. Anyways, just thought I’d give a heads up for anyone else experimenting with new veggies that spinach can do this. Also it says to watch your intake if your high risk for kidney stones so if that applies and your dr didn’t mention this you may want to ask about that. Anyways if this happens and you just had spinach you’re probably fine, just brush your teeth. 😆
