Guest guest Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 I have reached a milestone. I have been oil-pulling daily since the talks about it that went on here. I am now completely able to keep oil in my mouth. I don't like how time-consuming it is and one day it will not fit so easily into my schedule, but for now I am glad I am over the hump. I also have salt water mixed up and swish with salt water after the oil to continue the detox going on in my mouth. I am wondering what kinds of oil are best to oil-pull with. I was using CO, but I wonder what the science is behind the actual oil and which kind is most notably used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 10, 2011 Report Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Lyn, According to oilpulling.com: " Dr Karach had suggested refined sunflower Oil. Sesame Oil was prescribed in Ayurveda texts for Oil Pulling Therapy. Both oils worked well in curing health problems. Some found sesame oil better. " According to Dr. Fife: " Sunflower and sesame seed oils are the most commonly used for oil pulling, but any vegetable oil will work. People have had success with olive, coconut, almond, and other oils. I prefer to use coconut oil because of its many health benefits. " For an in-depth study of oil pulling and a list of cures using various oils this website gives the most comprehensive information: http://www.earthclinic.com/Remedies/oil_pulling.html Best, Dee > > I have reached a milestone.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 It's my understanding that CS and peroxide are superior to oil as a germ and virus killer by several measures; this much I have already shown in the research. There's " every indication " that one liquid is pretty much equivalent to another for physical swishing, and we know CS and peroxide kills more germs, but it's OK to disagree; I'd like to know your line of reasoning though. Swishing aside, you would indeed have to take either product internally for a systemic response, and systemic effect of the oil vs. CS can easily be compared. The foremost CAM doctors favour CS for the flu and other viral plagues for example, and that is just one systemic infection that is not approached by dietary oil. The microwave units I remodel for people pretty much make their whole family, and can make their whole neighbourhood, plague-ready, while dietary oil does not. all good, Duncan > > Lyn, > > While colloidal silver kills pathogens there is little to no indication that swishing it in the mouth has the same systemic effects on the body that oil pulling does. You would have to take it internally for that and then you would have to go to the trouble of making your own, as the amount you would need to take would be quite expensive if purchased. > > Best, > Dee > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thank you very much, Dee. My dentist has been after me for 3yrs to get my 3 shoogly teeth out but I keep refusing because although they dance the shoogle, they don't hurt me so, he's not getting his pliers on them yet lol. I have to say when I was oil pulling with the coconut oil (learned from B Fife book) my mouth did feel much cleaner. But, after three weeks I saw a dark shadow on my two front teeth (non-shoogly teeth) and this dark shadow got darker and darker as I oil pulled. I bought myself a small dentist mirror and to my absolute horror I saw that the dentist had given me two amalgam filling at the back of the front teeth and that is now what is showing. Isn't that horrible! Not sure I trust him to take these filling out given that he put them in so I'm contemplating another dentist at the moment. I'll check out the CoQ10, thanks very much. susan Re: Tooth care Hi , I wish I could remember how long it took for my shoogly (good description:-) teeth to firm up but they are now tight as a drum, so do keep at it! I've also been reading lately about the application of CoQ10 to the gums so you might want to try that before bed to help speed things up. All the Best, Dee > > > I never much entered the world of colloidal silver.So you know where to > > > get the best quality at the best price? > > > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Dee, allow me to explain it again in a different way; basically there are four rules to this biology: The lymph system and the inside of the mouth are covered by a membrane barrier that functions to keep things separate. Oil does not penetrate the membrane barrier. There are no oil-based toxins to attract from the blood and lymph. Water-based toxins in blood and lymph are not attracted by oil. Attraction and accumulation of toxins on one side of a membrane such as that proposed would result in irritation and cell death. As an aside, not a rule, the mechanical action has been determined to NOT increase cell or membrane permeability. I am aware that osculation, sucking and other movement moves the lymph. Lymph brushing is well studied IMO. So, the benefit arises from swishing action plus the topical germicidal effect on only the oil-enveloped organisms. Spitting pus out is better than swallowing it, and that results in health gains you call " systemic " . all good, Duncan > > Franz, > > I'm pretty sure colloidial silver has it's benefits but where is the science that " seems to be against " the systemic effects of oil pulling? Just because it doesn't directly pull toxins from the blood (as Bruce Fife admits yet is a strong proponent of oil pulling) does not mean that it does not affect the body in other ways - through the lymph system, for example, as posited by Dr. Lew: > > " Mechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a > material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends > on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium and are > readily observable and demonstrated in nature: the oral dynamics of > churning sloshing and swirling of Oil Pulling in the cellular > universe. > > based on its rationale in Biochemistry , Physics > and Applied Anatomy : oro-nasal lymphatic drainage ) > http://forums.hpathy.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=12394 & title=olfaction-in-mainstream\ \ > -practice " > > Best, > Dee > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
