Coconut, Olive, Sesame, and Sunflower Oils are so delicious anyway it might be fun to try a different one day to day for variety. I almost said Walnut Oil too BUT - It might stain teeth because pulverized walnuts rubbed into dark hair can revitalize it when it's going grey, and make dark wood furniture look like new. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 5471110 United States 03/15/2012 11:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I did the oil pulling for a couple of months about 3 years ago. It had no noticeable effect on me. I wanted it to work so bad. I researched it thoroughly before I started. I used safflower oil. Maybe I should have stayed with it longer. I've already got some coconut oil. I might try it again with the coconut oil instead of the safflower. |

I've done this once and my teeth are already whiter. I'm going to keep doing it every day and see what happens. I don't have any of the health problems that oil pulling claims to cure, so I really can't comment on that. But the testimonials speak for themselves really. If its a placebo effect then I don't see a problem with that, it's still working. |

OMG the second time was torture! It took forever My teeth seem a little whiter, I already have good teeth. They are definitely smoother. PLUS I'm even more drop dead gorgeous than it made me earlier. Is that scientific enough for you doubters? Day two starts in 9hours. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 7914116 United States 03/16/2012 07:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Has anyone done any research to know if it will help for hot flashes in particular? I've been thru a lot of the references posted and all I find so far is that it works for hormones so I suppose it would, but it would be nice to know if someone has had results for that in particular. I have had them for 9 brutal years with no sign of let up in the near future despite herbs (black cohosh, red clover, etc.), sulphur (MSM) and homopathic HCG. Nothing works. I'd try it to find out but I'm homeless right now so it would be a real effort to do this twice a day, lol, but if I knew for sure it would, believe me, I'd find a way! |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1190661 Australia 03/17/2012 11:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Day 2 - Used Sunflower oil for 15 minutes in morning and 10 minutes at night. Gums feel great and look very very healthy. My theory is that as you do this your gums get a great massage. Perhaps increasing blood flow. Also forcing a thick oil through teeth sure cleans the gaps. The second time in the day again was hard work. Have decided to purchase an organically certified coconut or olive oil for future efforts. May as well use the most healthy way possible. More later! |
I See Through This User ID: 11418535 United States 03/17/2012 12:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Holy Crap, I thought this was baloney and I just did it and dark scale that has been on my gum line for a year just FELL OFF when I brushed my teeth after oil pulling! I have abnormally hard, white teeth with thick enamel, extended canine teeth, never had a cavity in my life but very poor gums and I get dark brown(nearly black) tartar at and just below the gum line between teeth cleanings despite frequent brushing and flossing. This is surprisingly effective, I can't wait until my wife comes home so I can show her what it did to my teeth. I have no idea what the other health benefits will be but the immediate results are impressive. Thank You OP! |

So for my second oiling today I reverted to the Sunflower oil. I haven't gotten the chance to go and buy the Organic Oil. My mouth still feels great and I haven't lost any fillings... |
R... User ID: 572408 Netherlands 03/21/2012 03:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Only three days doing this, with sunflower oil, so not yet drastic results. But immediately after the oil pulling my awareness brightens, and my legs tickle...some kind of refreshing feeling. Curious to see if there's some other results after a few weeks of doing this. I'm looking for results in clearness of mind, of energy and stuff, not worrying about teeth or gums :) "A strange game.
