Karen, the white coated tongue is probably caused by an overgrowth of certain bacteria in the digestive system. The foods you mention will help. Apples and their juice taken as the first food of the day, by themselves, and waiting for at least an hour before consuming anything else, will help favorable bacteria flourish. The apple cider vinegar taken 2 tsp.to the glass when eating starches or protein foods will help digestion considerably. This will also help good bacteria grow. I have read the names of the bacteria responsible for the different colors of the coated tongue--some for white, some for pale yellow, some for the darker yellow, and even the dark gray sometimes seen. Don't remember the names though. Multiple digestive enzyme tablets with betaine hydrochloride will make a big difference in her digestion. Also, if she eats anything after 5 or 6 in the evening it should be fresh fruit only. These things will help. Best wishes, pj
