Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The loss of taste can be because of the loss of papillae over the tongue secondary to drugs(herbal products), anemia, nutritional deficiency or smoking. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take multivitamins like vitamin B6 and B12. Stop smoking.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
