Everyone knows that "Language before Kiev will bring" and that "Language is our enemy" ... I wonder how not to bring myself to the handle and make it so that the language was a friend?
It is known that in 1882 appeared an amusing science - lingvodiagnostika . It can help to determine which disease has crept into the human body according to the state of its language, when the main symptoms of the disease have not yet manifested itself.
However, even in ancient times, Chinese doctors believed that the language reflects the state of the whole organism. Each part of the language is responsible for this or that organ. First of all, Chinese doctors looked at the general state of the language.
Much can tell and its color . For example, the burgundy language indicates presumably an acute infectious disease. Violet signals that there may be irregularities in the circulatory and respiratory system. White scurf is a sign of the threat of constipation. Yellow indicates serious disturbances in the digestion. Gray says of the diseases of the stomach and intestines, which have become chronic. Grayish plaque can talk about increased acidity. If the tongue is flushed from the sides, then there are possible liver disorders. Too light language indicates a possible depletion of the body.
Raid with blanks is a sign that immunity is weakened. If the plaque in the tongue is thin, then the disease either only begins, or proceeds in a light, superficial form. The thicker the plaque, the greater the fear that the disease has become chronic. Changing the plaque in the tongue, the large lagging of the tongue most often indicates that you have one of such common diseases as gastritis , peptic ulcer of the stomach or duodenum.
The swelling of the tongue also indicates gastrointestinal diseases. In such cases, it is better to see a doctor. A simple cleansing of the language will not help much until the main cause is eliminated. After all, the mucous membrane of the mouth - nothing like the initial department of the gastrointestinal tract.
Redness of the right half of the tongue is most often with a violation of the liver, redness of the left half of the tongue indicates problems with the spleen. In addition, it can signal and the diseases of the blood.
Chinese doctors believed that the central groove of the tongue can tell about the osteochondrosis of the spine. Curved at the root of the tongue, the lingual groove signals violations in the lumbar spine , while in healthy people the lingual groove is straight. The central bend of the lingual groove indicates changes in the thoracic spine, closer to the tip of the tongue - in the cervical region.
The advice of Chinese doctors is of interest - for the suspension of biliary colic they recommend the patient to do 18 movements with his tongue sticking out in either direction.
Modern medicine largely agrees with its predecessors. So, the founder of the Russian therapeutic school, Professor M.Ya. Mudrov believes that doctors simply need to be able to recognize diseases by language: "... language is the true imprint of the internal state of the body."
So, an enlarged thick tongue can tell not only about intestinal dysbiosis, decrease in thyroid function, but also about a serious mental illness.
A small tremor of the tongue indicates a severe thyroid disease or neglected alcoholism.
The tongue, covered with bright spots , indicates gastritis, peptic ulcer, diseases of the biliary tract.
Thick plaques indicate thrush. They need to be carefully removed. Thrush, as a rule, causes abuse or improper intake of antibiotics. Thrush is a fungal disease, so treatment is prescribed by the doctor with antifungal drugs.
If the tongue is smooth, like a mirror , then, most likely, the body lacks vitamin B12 riboflavin, nicotinic acid and folic acid.
With increased acidity of the stomach can appear sores . Lugol's solution, which has iodine in its composition, helps out well. In addition, sores can be caused by stomatitis, and it should be treated by a dentist.
Recently, dentists around the world have noted an increase in the number of diseases of the oral mucosa . They are caused by infectious and allergic diseases, a violation of the internal organs. According to the doctors, it is pathological changes in internal organs in 90% of all cases that are the cause of diseases of the oral mucosa. In addition, over the past 10-15 years, the incidence of oral candidiasis has increased 15-fold, and herpetic infection-10-fold.
The appearance of red papillae in the tip of the tongue indicates the diseases of the pelvic organs, the papillae located at the edges of the tongue are a sign of the pathology of the bronchopulmonary system.
But, examining your language, you need to remember if you did not use before this product, coloring the language in a particular color. For example, if you just ate a beetroot salad with beetroot or enjoyed the berries of blueberries, then do not be scared - your tongue will acquire a purple color. Temporarily. Hot tea will make your tongue crimson, and coffee - brown. Dairy products will leave a white coating on the tongue.
It is believed that a clean tongue without plaque is a healthy digestive system . But some experts say that a complete absence of plaque is also not always good. Our grandmothers did not have special cleansing spoons for the tongue and used a silver spoon for this purpose. Scrape off the plaque should be on an empty stomach before breakfast before brushing your teeth, so that it does not hit with the breakfast in the stomach. After all, the scurf is teeming with bacteria.
In addition, massage of the tongue is recommended . You can massage your tongue with a soft toothbrush. Daily massage significantly improves the work of internal organs and, stimulating the production of saliva, weakens the effect of harmful microorganisms.
In addition, we will significantly help our body if we reduce the consumption of carbohydrate foods and imported products containing preservatives that change the surface of the epithelial cell, making it rough. In this case, fungi of the genus Candida do not cost anything to adsorb and get inside.
Abroad, for example, you can not buy an antibiotic without a doctor's prescription. We also have advertising and adds fuel to the fire. But do not forget that it is the uncontrolled intake of antibiotics and hormones that leads to immunodeficiency, thereby creating favorable conditions for the development of candidiasis.
Therefore, be vigilant, observe the hygiene of the oral cavity, do not be lazy to cook food from domestic, preferably natural products and are treated only with those medicines that are prescribed to you by the attending physician.
And be healthy!
