White tongue as everyone refers to in the case of oral candida(oral thrush) is a very thick white coating over an irritated red tongue that is almost painful to get rid of...it stays there all day unless you treat it!

Normally,After a night of sleep the tongue accumulates bacterias (as you also do on the teeth because of decreased saliva) which accumulates as a thin white layer and that normally disappears with tooth brushing...

There is a huge difference between the too!

Mouthwashing with Grapefruit-Seed-Extract (grapefruit seed extract) is a good way to get rid of oral candida if you still think that is what you have. Mouthwashing with Nystatin is one of the usual prescribed medication.

As a note: you have to be very immunosupressed(read: very sick) with candida albican to get real oral thrush...and trust me it hurts...you can't scrape it out of your tongue because it is too painful!

The yogurt has too much milk Sugar for you to see the benefit. Take pro-biotics and consider stopping the yogurt. Also, don't be afraid to empty a capsule of probiotics on your tongue before you go to sleep at night. I used to chew a Schiff's Acidophillus pill up and leave it on my tongue and go to sleep. Their brand is pretty strong and can actually make your mouth sore, but your tongue will whiten becaue it does take over the real estate where the candida was.

Also, try not using a toothpase - it DOES contain sugar. Brush with baking soda. YOu can also rinse with hydrogen peroxide.

In my experience, I learned that acidophullus is not the friendly bacteria that actually can survive in your gut, so you will need to supplement wiht other strains. I'm taking Syntol, and also a blend of flora. Google it, there are a bunch out there. The trick is to replace the bad with the good.

last,cut out dairy totally, as a last resort. is kefir a dairy product ? trust me the benefit of milk Sugar in order to get the beneficial bacteria is not worth it.

last, consider a detox or Colon Cleanse program. I use arise and shine. you have to MOVE the candida out of your body. It's like cleaning your basement. you can keep spraying febreze down there, and you can buy a cat. but the rat has to be killed and removed. and the smell cannot just be covered over with febreze.
