Tongue: Theres an expression that the tongue is the soul of the body. The white could be dehydration, diet related, yeast or dryness from the climate. See your doctor for a good check up to look at thyroid, vitamin D3, anemia etc and start salt water gargles. Dont forget to see your dentist as well. A tongue culture is sometimes done.
