Re: White coated tongue

This is my first time posting. I have had a white tongue - geographic tongue - patchy - sometimes bleeds - for years. It got worse after I was on Antibiotics for 2 years. I also have issues with slow motility in my intestines - it takes days to digest certain foods. And the worse my gut gets (constipation or sluggish bowels) the worse my tongue gets. I think I have gut dysbiosis - not enough good bacteria, so have difficulty digesting certain foods. I finally found 3 things that have healed my tongue.

first, a change in diet. Limiting the foods that don't digest well or cause issues - gluten, sugar, beans, alcohol, etc. Did that for a couple of years - but still had issues if I would cheat.

second, I started drinking SmoothMove tea to have more regular bowel movements.

Third - and this is the thing that has really made the difference, in my opinion. I started taking a probiotic called Bio-Kult. I take 4 a day. And sometimes more if I eat something that I know will bother me. I've been able to cheat a bit with my diet - and not have problems with my tongue. I've never posted on any forum, but spent years trying to figure out how to heal my tongue and gut - and these probiotics have changed my life.

I hope this helps somebody! Bio-Kult and SmoothMove tea Tweet
