Certain types of yeast in the gut and general gut dysbiosis (imbalance) can cause a white or yellowish coated tongue. Dysbiosis means that the bacterial balance in your stomach and intestinal area is out of balance. It can mean too much "bad" or unhealthy bacteria and yeast and not enough "good" or healthy bacteria also called probiotics such as Lactobicillus, Bifidobacterium and Sachromyces Boulardi. A good way to test for this is by using a stool test that can find and identify any microbial, yeast or parasite problems as well as how much healthy bacteria you have in your gut.
