I'm dealing with this really annoying problem where I seem to have way too much saliva all day long. Every morning I wake up, and my mouth is just full of it. It's been like this for over four years now, and it's super frustrating because if I try to swallow it, I feel really nauseous. I end up having to spit it out constantly. I'm just curious, are there any foods that might help with this issue, and what exactly could be causing this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've noticed that whenever I add milk to my diet, I start to feel some pain in my stomach, and it seems to trigger gas issues. I also get this feeling of acidity and sometimes deal with constipation. I'm wondering if I can use milk powder as an alternative to meet my dairy needs. Is it healthy to make that switch, and are there any possible side effects I should be aware of?

If you are having problems when taking milk or milk products, chances are you will get those problems with milk powder as well. But you can try. Take small quantities initially and if its alright, you can continue. There is no problem.
