Have your favourite foods started tasting strange after a heart attack or heart surgery?

In this episode, we’re talking about something that doesn’t get discussed nearly enough - changes in taste after a cardiac event.

• If coffee suddenly tastes disgusting…
• If chocolate no longer hits the spot…
• If everything feels metallic, bland or just “off”…

You are not imagining it and you are not alone. In this episode, I share:

• Why taste changes can happen after heart surgery or a heart attack
• The role of nerves, blood flow and medication
• Whether it’s temporary or permanent
• Practical ways to make food enjoyable again (without adding extra salt or sugar)
• The emotional impact of losing the pleasure of food and how to cope

Recovery isn’t just physical. It’s sensory. It’s emotional. It’s personal.

If food has lost its magic, this episode will help you understand what’s happening and gently guide you forward.
