Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 What is oil pulling? Katrina, it would be a good subject to do a net search on, so you can get the full explanation and different opinions and suggestions and experiences. But basically it is pulling oil through your teeth backwards and forwards, for instance, sesame seed oil, for twenty minutes, until it is watery, then spitting it out. It is done with the intention of killing pathogens etc. Rowena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2008 Report Share Posted October 3, 2008 As I understand from the Internet it is a cleanse that is popular in India. It seems the citizens of India use this for all ailments and it has been used for a long time. You use Sesamee, Sunflower of Olive oil and on an empty stomach you swish the oil around in your mouth until it is foamy. It takes about 15 -20 minutes to complete. If the oil comes back out yellow then you have not swished long enough. I tried it and honestly it made a difference. I looked it up on the Internet and you get both positive and negative reviews. I think it has more pros than cons. You do it in the morning before you eat of drink anything. You swish the oil then you brush your teeth with baking soda and salt. You have to be careful not to swallow any of the oil because it contains toxins from your mouth. You can get a better understanding by looking it up on the Internet. Let me know what you think about it. Honey in Nasal Rinse???

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Lurash, are your polyps that bad? Does anything unblock your nose. I know we are not suppose to use the nasal sprays for anything for some relief. I remember those days. That can become frustrating and cause you to have emotion emotional turmoile when you cannot breath.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Thanks , I am going to contact them because here in Atlanta the allergy counts go up and those are days when I have problems. My sinus problems only flare up occassionally. I started to wheeze Sunday and because my youngest daughter is getting married this weekend I called for some Prednisone. I do not want to be wheezing through out the entire wedding. Over all I feel okay but you never know with this stuff when it will flare up again.

Guest guest Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 That would be the Budwig protocol - you can flavour the mixture with all sorts of things that make it more palatable. I have a hard copy somewhere which I will search for if I can't find it online. there is something specifically healing (cancer) about the flaxseed. Now I put the whole seeds in smoothies. I soak them overnight to begin germination, you can't tip the water off though, as it gels! I put the whole lot into the smoothie. Maracuja From: Petric <bluheron@...> Subject: Oil pulling Vaccinations Date: Thursday, November 13, 2008, 5:47 AM I will get sesame, but there is a cancer cure I heard of that has flaxseed and cottage cheese, so had some right here in the house, but it is icky tasting. But will try the sesame oil or sunflower and see if that is better. Haven't been shopping to get anything because the car is being fixed. I was trying to not concentrate on it to keep me from throwing up, lol Thanks ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 It sure sounds like it, but here is a thought or more of a question about healing crises if i may When I first began the herbal route back in the eighties I was told that a healing crises was when one had started to detoxify too rapidly and too many toxins were coming into the liver. The flu like symptoms were because of the elimination system not being able to discharged them fast enough. If so why would op then cause a healing crises? For to op one bypasses the liver and expels them through the mouth. Unless one swallows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Around the same time, I had a tooth pulled from an abscess, so who knows, maybe that was a confounding factor in my outcome. It is so hard to say what may have precipitated such a reaction, a reaction which, three month later, led to my diagnosis of hypothyroidism (after years of iodine supplementation). Maybe I'll try oil pulling again, but first I'd like to remove some more amalgams and a root canal. It can't be good to leave those in.nne Posted by: " latinainwpb2 " latinainwpb2@... latinainwpb2 Thu Aug 20, 2009 7:36 pm (PDT) I remember that the first time I tried it I had a mild reaction, don'teven remember what, maybe a headache (which I rarely get) and people atCurezone suggested it could be Candida " die-off " .

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Well, I have to say, I was intrigued by the oil pulling, especially since I'd read on Dr. Brownstein's site that he'd used it with success against periodontal troubles, so I tried it the other day. Ugh! It totally grossed me out. I couldn't bear to swish oil (and I had yummy sesame oil) around in my mouth for 1 minute, never mind 15-20. I admire those of you who can. I decided to just brush with coconut oil instead. I noticed that most of the toothsoaps contain various oils (coco, olive, palm) anyway, and not much else. I'll see how that goes. The fact that it's nice and slippery seems to help dislodge food from between the teeth much easier than toothpaste.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Carol,LOL! Oil pulling did the same for me, but as Fife (author of the book, Oil Pulling) says, it just takes practice. I built up to 10 minutes and that took over a week. Fife recommends 15-20 minutes every day and those with serious chronic disease, he recommends 2-3 times a day. He also suggests spitting it out if you have to and then doing it again until you reach the 20 minute mark; the longer the better. The idea of oil pulling is that it clears out the bad bacteria in your mouth (pulls them right out of your tubules due to lipophilic (fat loving) attraction, so that your immune system can actually work on other parts of your body. And since many disease (he argues " all disease " ) come through the mouth, you are also reducing your risk and preventing further disease. It makes sense. Of course, supplementing with iodine (and companion nutrients) on top of that further boosts the immune system. Adding a WAP diet on top of that, and you can see how someone can be successful in reversing disease where others fail. nne Posted by: " Carol " carolbrown28@... brandenburg456 Fri Aug 21, 2009 7:17 pm (PDT) Well, I have to say, I was intrigued by the oil pulling,especially since I'd read on Dr. Brownstein's site that he'd usedit with success against periodontal troubles, so I tried it theother day.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 Carol,do u spit or swallow the oil,after swishing it around? Ive read u swallow,but that seems weird,since u would then swallow the toxins,u pulled?? Deb --aliano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 U spit out the stuff in the end of 15 or 20 minutes. Rinsing with a little bentonite in water makes my mouth feel cleaner.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 An abcess?! That's a concentrated source of bacteria, need I say more? It seems very likely that they spread via your blood to other places, could've even been responsible for your thyroid problems, lots of hypothyroidism is caused by infection be it viral, bacterial or fungal.Raquel > >> > Be careful with oil pulling.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Sorry, been away...no, I didn't swallow, it just grossed me out to be swishing oil around like that. Maybe I could try again with a little less oil. Or less strong-tasting oil. > > incase Carol is away from her puter to day, you spit,never swallow > Re: Oil Pulling > > > Carol,do u spit or swallow the oil,after swishing it around?
