Biliousness or bitter mouth is associated with problem like poor digestion, dyspepsia, flatulence,etc. It is often due to improper functioning of the liver and gall bladder. After a full meal there is a bitter taste in the mouth. In the morning one gets up with a sour feeling. A simple home remedy for this would be take a glass of lime juice ( one lime to six ounce of water) with a piece of ginger crushed into it. When there is no lime available ginger pieces in jaggery will serve the same purpose.

For the most dyspeptic disorders lime is a panacea. But for its full effectiveness take the dilute juice as such or with a crystal of rock salt. Over sweetening lime decreases its medicinal value. However it retains its nutritive value in all forms. Only contraindication for taking lime would be when one is specifically allergic to citrus fruits, or when there is excess acid secretion of gastric juice with increased hunger and pain in upper abdomen when the stomach is empty.
