here's something weird....

April 25, 2002

Ever since Agnes posted about the oil swishing (a month ago, maybe?) I

started doing it. I've taken to adding a few drops of SuperTonic to the oil

for added effect. Anyway...I ran out of olive oil (imagine that - a

gallbladder flusher with no olive oil in the kitchen!) and didn't do it for a

couple of days.

Yesterday I noticed a tenderness in my gums in an area where I'd had a minor

problem before. I thought that it would be important to resume the oil

swishing in an effort to deal with whatever was in there. Since I didn't

have oil, I used Apple Cider Vinegar (very cleansing). I did it this

morning shortly after I got to work (around 6:30). Here's the weird thing.

After swishing for a bit I spit out the ACV and noticed that there seemed

to be something else in there. I hadn't even had breakfast yet - just the

morning lemon water - so it isn't like there could be any kind of food

particles. So I did it again, just to see if I was mistaken. Same results.

Again. Same result. 3 or 4 times, when I spit out the ACV there were

little....how do I describe them.....I don't know.....not quite hairlike,

threadlike, sort of like the vein of a leaf - but VERY small.

Do you suppose it's possible that this is coming from the inflammation in my

gum? it isn't anything serious - just a little tenderness.

I just thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone had any speculation or

had possibly ever experienced something similar.

in health,
