111. Why You Should Scrape Your Tongue Every Morning: Digestion Starts in the Mouth

from Skin | Earth | Vitality · host Emily Davis

Today we're kicking off the daily habit series with the easiest habit of all: tongue scraping. We're getting into why Ayurveda has recommended this morning practice for thousands of years, what your tongue can tell you about digestion, and how tongue scraping supports taste, saliva, oral health, and the very beginning of the digestive process. I'm also walking you through exactly how I tongue scrape,  and the rest of my Ayurvedic-inspired morning oral care routine, including herbal tooth tablets, flossing, and oil pulling.
