Learn more about natural treatments for white tongue: draxe.com/white-tongue/?...
A healthy tongue is pink and covered with papillae, small nodules that are on the surface of the tongue and have a rough texture. When your tongue appears white, that means food debris, bacteria and dead cells have been lodged between inflamed papillae. White tongue is usually harmless and only temporary, but did you know that it can also be indicative of a number of serious underlying conditions such as adrenal fatigue or leaky gut?
In this episode of Ancient Medicine Today, I share natural treatments for white tongue that include everything from supplements and essential oils to foods and herbs - as well as the possible causes. Watch to learn more.

I'm finally free from bad breath and white tongue after having a horrible outbreak and I feel the same way you described in your interview. Listening to you share your experience of improvement gave me the ray of hope I needed to hear. I'm glad there are people like you who simply want to help other people struggling with the same problems. Your words gave me the courage I needed to hear today to know that it is okay. I can still be myself and now enjoy my life like I'm supposed to. I am blessed to have found you, Dr. Emovon, on KZfaq.

I had a white tongue with scallops/ridges or what looked like bite mark scars on my tongue. I had it for a long time but nobody knew what it was, dentists never said a word and I went twice a yr for cleaning, until I went to one where the hygienist said "What is wrong with your tongue?" She didnt know either and made me do a cancer screening(no cancer found), so still no answers. I ended up beginning Oil pulling and swishing with coconut oil and it all went away, 2 yrs later I was diagnosed Hashimotos, and find out this is a symptom of it. I just assumed it was Candida overgrowth and nothing more when the coconut oil made it go away (along with the scallop ridges/bite marks) When I went back to the dentist my gum receding from previous had greatly improved and the dentist herself came over to ask what I had been doing and I told them Coconut Oil. It cleared up my tongue and made my gums healthier.

@MyMySharona 7 жыл бұрын

It was pretty immediate for me. To be honest I probably did it about one time a day, but I dont think more will hurt. Let me know if it worked for you too! Dont put a lot in your mouth as its hard to hold it in, and then swish it around like mouthwash, but its more like method of "Oil Pulling" if you dont know what that is, you try to hold it in as long as you can and pull it between your teeth, etc, just google it if you have never heard of Oil pulling, it also helps your gums, and whitens your teeth too. Spit it out when done into a napkin or paper towel, not in the sink as it can clog.

Dear Dr Axe, I love your programs and watch them regularly. I have had such a bad digestive system since 2005 that I am under constant and regular treatments. I even visited CTM in Beijing. That's how extreme my condition is. I agree with the last four remedies you mentioned at the end to heal the white tongue , but about many things we have to be careful specially for many people like me who can be extremely allergic to most tropical fruits as they can increase heat inside your body based on Chinese medicine including coconut, papaya, banana, mango.......😲

Thank you for this very detailed run down of what this could mean. Ever since Covid I suffer from GERD and especially during Covid my tongue has never been so white almost gray. Now on occasion I get this white tongue. I am 32 years old. It comes with hurting throat I cough a lot and it feels like gerd too. The latest trigger is that I ate peanut butter which was outside in a humid environment for months... I live in florida and I think this gave me white tongue as well as an allergic reaction because my tongue felt bigger and the pappilla reduced in size because the tongue was enlarged a bit. I'm dealing with it still. Doing salt water gargles and oregano oil gargles, colloidal silver and bone broth. Wish me luck. I also make an appointment with the dentist.

Push thru it and continue unless your allergic. I had gum pain but continued and then it cleared after a week or so. My mouth felt healthy after. I think if you have pain/irritation it may be pulling pathogens from your mouth. Die off effect. Things get worst before they get better.
