My RO told me to buy the drinkable aloe vera juice and use it every day; seems it has had numerous medical studies done on it with positive results reported often.

Most of the time I felt like I had a mouth full of copper pennies. Eventually it does get better. And I found sucking on lemon drops helped also.
