It is a miserable time when you have a yeast infection of the tongue. Every part of your day is affected, eating, brushing your teeth even just trying to talk. When you have a yeast infection of the mouth it is called Thrush and this can spread to many parts of the mouth – the gums, tonsils, roof of the mouth and of course the tongue.

Yeast infections of the tongue are a filmy white coating on the tongue and the gum tissue surrounding it. This can be scraped off to the see the pinky red flesh of the tongue underneath it. Some sufferers also get lesions and sores and bad breath that brushing the teeth and mouthwash does not remove. Severe cases of Thrush can even have the throat and esophagus infected.

A remedy that is very popular and is natural is garlic. Boil three cloves of fresh garlic in a quart of water for around five minutes. Then add some Epsom salt to the solution and gargle your mouth with it four to five times a day until you see results. Fruit and vegetables need to be eaten more of as they are high in fibre and low in starch. Carbohydrates and sugars need to be reduced as yeast eats sugar and multiplies.

It is for that reason that people who have blood sugar problems like diabetics are more prone to yeast infections and have chronic yeast problems, not just in the mouth but in other parts of the body. Also avoid alcohol as this is high in sugar, including beer, until the infection is under control.

If you leave a tongue infection untreated it can become a systemic infection – meaning various parts iof the body become affected and causing potential harm to internal organs. Whatever type of yeast infection you may have, treat it is soon as you can with suitable and appropriate treatments. Different treatments work for different people, some get results with traditional over the counter or prescripted treatments whereas others have more success with home remedies.
