For all of my life I've had a nervous habit of biting the inside of my lip when I'm under stress or nervous, which is most of the time. I have suffered from TMJ terribly over the years from this nervous habit. My Doc said this can be a sign of anemia and or stress. I'm not anemic but sometimes I have lots of stress. (chewing ice is also a sign of anemia). I've noticed lately since I've gone Vegan that I don't do this anymore. Could meat in my diet have triggered this habit or some nutrient that was lacking in my diet when I ate meat and dairy products? Anyone else experience this? Also my TMJ is 100% better.
