When your tongue is germ free : if it is pink or white and why ?!


Question: When your tongue is germ free : if it is pink or white and why ?
Answers:

1. Your tongue is NEVER germ free. It is impossible to "sterilize" the mouth or human skin.

2. A healthy tongue is pink, moist, with small bumps and lines. White may indicate that the tongue needs cleaned (via toothbrush) or that a person has a fungal infection such as thrush. A tan/brown tongue is the same but with a smoker, mainly.

A white tongue may indicate a suffering liver.
