I tend to stick to less than 100g of carbs a day? Can anyone tell me if that's classed as low carb or normal? I permantly have a horrid taste in my mouth and thirsty and someone said its due to low carbs? I didn't think 100g a day was low but maybe it is? All advice greatly received? Xxx

    Is that net or total? I stay under 75g net and don't consider it low carb. But that's me. It sounds like you have "dry mouth". I've never heard of it being connected with low carb though.

    I usually stay under 30, and that's definitely low carb. I think ( not positive, though) that 100 carbs a day might be on maintanance.

    Re the dry mouth and horrible taste, I know sometimes my breath needs "help", but I drink lots of water, so my mouth isn't dry.
