Sensitive to bitter taste.

I have recently ecome very sensitive to bitter taste, such as found in red wine or coffee. Is there any weird nutritional deficency that causes this. I tried acu-cell. I did not see anything.

no deficiencies, but could be you don't need the minerals that are typically found in wine and coffee so they no longer taste as good. They ARE bitter. Getting healthy also means increased taste sensitivity - a better pallette. Could be that's what you're experiencing. You may have to switch to really fine wines and arabica coffees.

Your advice may be responsible for imminent my financial ruin.

LOL!

wine doesn't have to be expensive to be good! There are 10 dollar bottles tht are prefectly acceptable. You just gotta know how to find them.

Thanks Shelley.

I agree, a lot of the stuff I drink is about $8-$20 dollars with my occasional favorite being $40. I love wine and it is a bit of a hobby. I also recognize that some people go crazy chasing after labels on bottles that contain nothing more than fermented grape juice. Yes it is great stuff, but nothing life affirming.

I have been having good luck with French and Italian wine lately. Lower alcohol, better balance. Not overly sweet, or overly bitter.
