I was wondering if a change in the way food tastes is part of detox. I was in the mood for a salty treat today so I bought salsa and chips, but when I tasted the salsa it tasted sweet to me (the same kind of sweetness of a sweet pickle). I had my boyfriend try it and he said that to him it tasted fresh and it was so spicy his nose ran. He thinks it's because my period is coming around, but I wanted to ask all of you if you had experienced anything like this during detox.

Hi Amanda,

What kind of detox are you going through?  Detox to veganism? superhero? detox program?  I have heard that salt food will taste different when you have your period so you may be correct.  However I saw that as I got more and more use to the superhero diet I found salty food not as salty anymore.  I think if you eat more whole grains your palette does change a little.

I'm going through a detox to veganism. It's going great, I was just curious about what was causing the change of taste. Thanks :)
