Burning tongue is a problem that affects people all over the world, so in India, where Ayurvedic practices have been in place for thousands of years, it comes as no surprise that one particularly trusted remedy comes from that medical tradition. Triphala and babool are two Ayurvedic substances that can be mixed into a decoction and consumed. When allowed to sit on the tongue, this decoction can quickly remove inflammation and prevent oxidative stress and hormone level rises. This can be done multiple times each day for the rapid recovery from a bout of burning tongue.
