I have always been a huge fan of beef and the like but lately, it all tastes like iron and my stomach is not 100% happy when I eat it. Whitefish, shrimp, gelatine, cheese, it's all a pleasure to eat at the moment so I don't think it's protein in general. Is this a sign that I need to lose some iron? I have also eaten more meat(at least 75% beef) in the last 3 years than in all my life.
Should I try to donate blood? I tried to give blood perhaps 2 years back for a blood drive but was denied because I lived with my mother who has Hepatitis C so apparently my blood was too risky. I think they claimed I had to wait 6 months from the time I moved out though I only moved out about 1 month ago. Should I attempt it and lie on the medical survey? Is there another way I could lose some blood? Maybe I can find some leeches, haha.
Can you think of anything it could be other than iron? The taste is the main issue for me here.
