Loosing Coolant

Landrover discovery 3 on a 55 plate. 3 months ago white smoke pouring out of the exhaust. Our landrover mechanic whom we have used for years and years thought it may be cylinder head. loads of tests etc and proved not to be cylinder head,so disabled the EGC valves, all running fine. Now coolant low warning has started to come up on dashboard, and when I have checked coolant it was low and have topped it up about 3 times in the last week, just for my own peace of mind really. What can it be?? and has anyone else had this problem? Oh by the way the temp level normal and did not go up even when white smoke coming from exhaust. 52000 miles on clock.Thank you
