Most likely your head gasket is blown, allowing engine coolant to seep into the combustion chamber and as it burns it burns white. Are you loosing engine coolant with no external leaks.. (no puddles on the ground)? If there isn't any external leaks, and the problem persists, then you need to do a compression test leak down test to verify the problem, and repair it immediately, before there is further damage.
