WHAT YOUR TONGUE IS TRYING TO TELL YOU
That’s not just “ordinary sore.”
That’s not “salt and pepper reaction.”
And no, it’s not just because you didn’t drink enough water.
That burning, swollen, cracked, ulcered tongue?
It’s your gut screaming through your mouth.
A man came to me with diabetes.
Blood sugar? 430 mg/dL.
Tongue? Wounded, scarred, irritated—for over 2 years.
Pain. Breathing issues. Cracks. No answers.
He had traveled to the US, Ontario, seen top doctors, spent money on drugs.
Nothing changed.
Then he saw one of my posts.
Started fasting.
Cut off bread, soda, tea, processed carbs.
Started eating eggs, beans, proteins, garri, yam.
Moved daily. Slept better. Walked 10,000 steps.
Today?
— Blood sugar dropped to 69 mg/dL
— Weight down from 120kg to 79kg
— Tongue healed. Breathing restored. Life reclaimed.
And it wasn’t magic. It was food discipline.
🧠 What Most People Don’t Know:
Your tongue is a mirror of your gut.
—White coating = yeast, poor digestion
—Red cracks = vitamin B deficiencies
—Burning = gut inflammation, blood sugar chaos
—Persistent sores = chronic irritation, weak immunity
If your gut lining is inflamed, your tongue will reflect it.
If your blood sugar is wrecked, your tongue will suffer.
If your body is drowning in processed foods, your mouth will be the first to show it.
🚫 Toothpaste won’t fix this.
🚫 Mouthwash won’t cure this.
🚫 Antibiotics will only delay the real healing.
You must fix your gut.
Fix your plate.
Fix your internal fire.
Stop saying “it’s just tongue ulcer.”
It’s a sign that your body is under attack.
Fix the root or keep managing the symptoms.
Don’t forget to reach out for a healing plan.
Tag someone who needs to check their tongue and check their life.
