More Serious Skin Problems. The main feature distinguishing chronic hives from more serious skin disorders is whether the welts are filled with fluid. If the red bumps are itchy, inflamed, and filled with fluid, the condition is most likely hives. If theyâre hard and filled with other material besides fluid, and if after a skin test the lesions have a brownish color, thereâs most likely an underlying problem.
In the case of salty taste, taste-active ingredients are salts of sodium, potassium and lithium. The most common of these is, of course, table salt, or sodium chloride. When the salt dissolves into the saliva, it separates into positive and negative ions. Only the positive ions (sodium, potassium or lithium) have an impact on salty taste.
Salty taste falls somewhere between Sweet and Sour tastes with regard to its heavy and moist qualities. While Sweet taste stimulates the greatest water retention and weight gain in the body, Salty taste will have similar effects when used in excess by any of the doshas.
