What Could Whitening Of Lips On Food Intake Indicate?

I have this problem for a year now it started after i tried a low carb diet for few weeks. Every time i put some food in my mouth, my lips turn white instantly and look dry. It really looks embarrasing when i eat with others. Why is this happening and how can i fix it? by the way, i visited three doctors for this issue and they all said they have no clue about it. so i m very close of declaring my case as a new medical discovery.

In my opinion better to get done Hemoglobin test this would be the possible cause for this if this turn low then this need to be treated and if this okay then second would be some cardiac condition, and for this better to get done the echo test, hope this information helps, take care, have a nice day.
