Doctor Eric Berg has some great information about adrenal fatigue, which I’ve talked about before. But he also talks about Iodine deficiency. Remember iodine deficiency can be related to thyroid problems, weight problems, sluggishness, brain fog, depression, fatigue, menstrual issues, cancer, fibro-cysts, prostate issues and of course tongue issues like beefy tongue, and scalloped tongue.
A “Scalloped Tongue” is a condition where it appears that the tongue has indentations or “tooth marks” around the edges. It is also called “Crenulated tongue”, “Crenated Tongue” or “Pie Crust Tongue”. In “doctorese” it is referred to as lingua indentata.
Beefy tongue is a condition where the tongue enlarges and “feels too big for your mouth”. It can be associated with hypothyroidism i.e. a condition where the thyroid doesn’t produce enough thyroxin.
Dehydration isn’t just “not drinking enough” even if you drink plenty of liquids some could actually increase dehydration and cause tongue problems.

Tongue diagnosis has been part of alternative medicine and herbal treatment for thousands of years. The color, texture and state of your tongue give vital hints to your health often just as accurate as modern high tech tests.
