  1. What I am trying to say was that during sport the participant often goes through long periods of heavy breathing which tends to be mainly through the mouth. This results in the tongue becoming dry. This contributes to the metallic sensation as your main taste receptors are on the tongue. Couple the above with a the fact that the pH balance of saliva changes during exercise which alters the taste of the saliva and you have the cause of your metallic mouth. Again there are a lot of reasons why that can happen. As long as it does not persist you are fine. Id referred to a few journals on your specific question on ?over exercising? and found a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine describing what you are talking about. It states: ? A metallic taste in the mouth is a sign of the body detoxifying itself. I get this with my clients when they start eating correctly for their body chemistry (Metabolic typing) and / or when they undertake specific detoxification procedures. The body can detoxify metals which enter from our environment, food and water supply in various ways. Metals are deposited in the hair, bones, fat and various other tissues. if the body feels healthy enough it will clear out the metals and this can take the form of metal being deposited through the mouth. Aerobic exercise is a powerful body cleanse. The problem could be exacerbated by your mouth being dry which makes you more sensitive to taste. This process should stop over time. If it doesn't it would suggest you are consuming something which is contaminating your body. However, the fact your body is dumping the metals out is a good sign as this bad taste in the mouth is much better than metal being deposited within the tissues such as bones etc. ? Hopes this makes things clearer.
  2. Playing XBox does not count
  3. Even though the comment that was made by mtb_Josh is correct, there are way too many reasons why you why you can get a metal taste in your mount. To name but a view it can be due to a brain tumour, bone marrow disease, the common flu cancer peptic ulcer food allergy lichen planus marine toxins too much iron hypercalcemia lead poisoning kidney disease copper overdose selenium toxicity mercury poisoning iodine intoxication acute kidney failure burning mouth syndrome type of food or vitamins you take. Ok I?m not saying run out and get a CT scan, what I am saying is that there are a lot of possible answers to your question. The following reasons will most likely be what you are looking for, but again there are literally hundreds of reasons why. First a few assumptions. 1. It is winter time 2. Exercising in dry not too humid conditions 3. Probable had a flu recently 4. And no infections or cuts in the mouth 5. And not on antibiotics. 6. Lastly that you have not been poisoned i. Likely it may be that whilst you are exercising you throat dries up to such a degree that it start saturating blood into you month. This commonly will come from the back of your throat or the bridge. Rehydrating and taking in electrodes while exercising is very important. ii. Another uncommon reason for a metallic taste in mouth is due to small electric currents in the mouth. 150 Watts springs to mind ;O) -- When two types of metals are used in two different dental fillings a battery can be created whilst creating a charge / release of energy whilst you are exercising. This causes high level of acidity in the mouth which will provide a metal taste. iii. Anchovy, Tuna or Sardines for lunch iv. Heartburn If it is persistent even when exercising lightly or with no exercise visit your doc. mpcombrink2009-08-20 23:28:19

  15. The 'purchase price' is not a legal and binding contract (contract with who?), it is merely an offer to sell. The seller can increase it, decrease it or remove the item for sale as he sees fit. Only once somebody has offered him a sum to buy it AND this has been accepted is it binding. agreed it is pathetic for the guys doing this - maybe the recession has bitten? Now here is where it gets tricky... ?The seller can increase it, decrease it or remove the item for sale as he sees fit..? - I agree. But if the sellers have posted an offer for say R100 and a buyer accepts that offer of R100... that is a legal binding contract. The seller may then ask to increase the price but only to the buyer which made the original offer and may not put the item on auction at this stage. Only when the buyer does not accept the counter offer form the seller, may the seller engage with another buyer, essentially restarting the negotiations. Since most of the time deals are made in PM?s and are not public, the seller can do whatever he want as there is no control of what offers have been made and who has made the first offer, highest offer, etc, etc, etc... At the end of the day a seller will take the nearest offer, and will try and make the most of the deal... and will probably still end up loosing out on the deal
  16. I don't see a problem with that as long as the seller does not push for more than the asking price What I hate more is you see the same deal published a week later at a higher pricempcombrink2009-06-11 04:16:21
