Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
OP and everyone, many Thanks for the advice about oil pulling.
I'd read about it somewhere awhile ago, forgot it's name, and couldn't find it again so it wasn't thought of again, til now.
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.

Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
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.

Anyone bother to look it up to see if it is a scam?

Show me a legitimate study ANYWHERE which documents this.

Nice article. I'm in it for the dental benefits, which the article proves. 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.

Rinse with baking soda afterward to remove all toxins and to alkalize.

Oil pulling will allegedly loosen fillings so anyone with fillings must be very cautious!

Never heard of this before, I'll give it a try!

I follow a strict Paleo Diet, So I cook with coconut oil multiple times a day. I actually eat it sometimes and let it sit for a second but i've never tried this Oil Pulling.

Thanks!hf

Day 1 results - Using Cooking grade Sunflower Oil

I did it twice - once for 20 minutes, once for ten minutes.

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? 1rof1

Day two starts in 9hours.

Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
I read a thread about it on good ol' GLP a few years ago. Kinda tucked it away in my mind "for future reference". You know how that goes! So I'm glad you've brought it up again here.

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!

Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
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!

Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
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!

Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
Day 3 I tried Olive Oil. It didn't seem to work as well as the Sunflower Oil.

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...

Re: Expect a miracle with this simple technique! Your health depends on it!
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 :)

Spirituality is the opposite of religion, religion is a substitute for spirituality. Spirituality is a direct connection to Creator The Most high.

I'd like to try oil pulling. I have some implants with caps in my mouth. I would imagine that they shouldn't be negatively affected. Does anyone know for sure?

Hi dear friend! I've been doing oil pulling for awhile now and have not noticed any loose fillings. With that being said, it's only based on personal experiencehf . Some have made claims that their fillings came out although I haven't seen any photos of it! Let me know what you decide!hf

I will. I have olive oil at home now and will try with that. When I go to the store I think I will get coconut oil though. It seems like it would taste better.
