After I started HIV meds, I developed what my mother would call a sensitive stomach—OJ plus coffee in the morning made me throw up. Chucking the java was not an option, so the OJ had to go. But mint toothpaste caused the heaves, too. The solution: Crest liquid gel orange-flavored Fresh Citrus Breeze toothpaste. It doesn’t make me gag and gives me a fake OJ hit—sort of. What will they think of next?
