My precum is always very sweet. The few times I've tasted my cum it's been very different (usually). Anybody else notice this?
Unless there is a health problem, precum should always be clear and sweet to the
taste. (see below regarding things that could make it bitter or sweet)
Pre-cum is produced by the Cowpers Gland. This fluid is alkaline and contains a very high fructose (sugar) content which lubricates the urethra and neuturalizes the acidic urine residue prior to ejaculation, thereby protecting and providing the sperm a better chance of surviving during ejaculation. This acidity is toxic and if it were not neuturalized, it would kill the sperm during ejaculation.
Cum (semen) is a combination of the pre-cum fluid produced by the Cowpers Gland and a number of other secretions, such as zinc, potassium, amino and citric acids, enzymes, etc....AND about
1%SPERM. Cum usually has a slight smell of chlorine or clorox, and a slight salty taste, but it can be sweet tasting also.
The taste can be influenced by many things.......
A
BITTER taste can be caused by nicotine, cafeine, drugs/medicine or recreational drugs, eating asparagas (especially), brocolli, cabbage, garlic and onions which are high in sulfur, red meats, strong cheeses, etc.
For a
SWEETER taste, eat lots of sugary things such as fruit (pineapples, apples, grapes, melons, cranberries, oranges, lemons, etc), things high in chlorophyll such as parsley and celery, plus spices such as cardamon, peppermint, cinnamon.
So take care of yourself, eat the proper things, and
ENJOY THE SWEET TASTE..
