How to avoid the tongue Alviberge?
Have you been smoking e-cigarettes and suddenly feel that the taste has changed? Or worse yet, you can't taste anything anymore? Many people tend to panic, when this happens. But do not worry. It happens to the best of us and is common among e-cigarette users. It's called vibrio tongue - a condition in which the vibrio tongue loses the ability to taste e-juice temporarily and unexpectedly. Many users describe the feeling of having a thick layer on their tongue and not being able to taste anything. It can be caused by various factors, such as dehydration, damaged taste buds, dry mouth, cold, stuffy nose or the flu. The good news is that fibrillation is completely avoidable. You can avoid it using the following tips below:
• Keep your body hydrated
Since dehydration is one of the main causes of fibrillation, it is important to drink water frequently throughout the day to keep yourself hydrated. Not only is increased water consumption good for your overall health, but it can also help your tongue better accept the flavors of e-liquid.
• Mix it with different flavors
Using one flavor in e-cigarettes for an extended period of time can result in a “sensory adaptation,” where your taste buds will not be able to pick up on the different flavors. The solution to this is to mix and add different flavors, so your tongue can enjoy unique combinations. Adding flavors, such as menthol or fruit, will be refreshing and help prevent you from developing a "fibergy tongue."
• Clean your clogged nose
Believe it or not, but your nose and sense of smell are directly related to your taste. If your nose is blocked due to a cold, flu, or allergies, you will not be able to smell properly and therefore will not be able to taste the flavor of e-juice. Clearing your clogged nose with nasal drops is a quick and effective way to restore your sense of taste and smell and avoid a “fiberine tongue.”
• Maintain good oral hygiene
Poor oral hygiene will affect your ability to taste and produce a bad taste in your mouth. Vibergia said brushing their teeth regularly, using a tongue scraper and flossing, helps them prevent a “tongue fibrillation” condition and enjoy the flavor of e-juice more. Therefore, paying attention to your oral hygiene is of paramount importance.
• Reduce your consumption of alcohol and caffeine
Drinks that contain alcohol and caffeine can cause dehydration and dry mouth. This can harm your taste buds and lead to fibrillation. Thus, it is recommended to reduce the intake of coffee and alcohol.
• Take a Break
Finally, if all of the above methods fail, it could be a sign that your body is telling you to slow down. Take a break from vaping and leave your taste buds alone until they heal themselves. As long as you avoid irritating it, your tongue should be perfectly fine within a week or two. In addition, try to avoid smoking, spicy foods and acidic drinks, so that your taste buds have time to fully heal and recover.
