We all know how important it is to monitor our health condition, yet few of us like going to doctors.
Bright Side found a simple way to perform a health checkup without leaving your home.

  • Take a common spoon, and scrape it over the entire surface of the tongue, abundantly wetting it with saliva.
  • Put the spoon into a transparent plastic bag, and place it under a bright light: the sun or a desk lamp.
  • Wait 1 minute, and check the spoon.
A clean spoon with no stains or unpleasant odors means you have no problems with the health of your internal organs.
If there’s an odor:
  • Putrefactive, strong — problems with the lungs or stomach;
  • Sweet — it may be diabetes;
  • Ammonia — problems with the kidneys.
If there are stains:
  • White or yellow with a thick coating — thyroid gland dysfunction;
  • Purple — bronchitis, poor blood circulation, high cholesterol level;
  • White — respiratory infection;
  • Orange — kidney disease.
Remember that this method is for informational purposes only and doesn’t replace a doctor’s consultation.
