Clover tongue is a traditional Chinese tongue exercise that is said to have many health benefits, including improving digestion, reducing stress, and boosting immunity. It is performed by placing the tip of the tongue on the roof of the mouth and then making a clover shape with the tongue. The tongue is then moved around in a circular motion, clockwise and counterclockwise.
There is some scientific evidence to support the health benefits of clover tongue. For example, one study found that clover tongue can help to improve digestion by increasing the production of saliva. Saliva contains enzymes that help to break down food and make it easier to digest. Another study found that clover tongue can help to reduce stress by activating the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for relaxation. Additionally, clover tongue is thought to boost immunity by increasing the production of white blood cells, which are responsible for fighting infection.
