Bad Taste In Mouth

[Skinny32]

Ive been taking BJJ for the past few weeks and I notice when I'm rolling I get this god awful taste in my mouth. What the heck, I brush my teeth before class and still end up with a bad funky taste in my mouth once my heart beat really starts to pump. Anyone know the cause or experienced this?
I smoke and drink coffee (I know I need to quit) do you think this could be the culprit?

I get this taste also anytime I push my body to its limits, sometimes when working out going to failure doing drop sets with high reps

Most likely, you are experiencing metabolic acidosis. I use to get the same thing when I played high school sports. I think the issue is aggravated by sweat dripping from your face into your mouth. The combination of the two can create a pretty awful taste. I have read that people on the Atkins diet also experience it because they aren't eating enough carbs to sustain basic body functions.

It would have helped so much to write what BJJ is in the original post.
