GENERAL FEEDBACK

[YEA]  07/28/2007: Tara from Melbourne, Australia writes: "I began oil pulling 7 months ago and I suffered with chronic fatigue for 14 years. It cleared up that issue within a matter of days. I was confined to bed rest and had limited mobility but the oil pulling dramatically shifted things for me so much so I am now more fit and active and don't need to rest. I had been livimg this way for years and oil pulling gave me my life back. It also cleared up a skin problem I had when nothing else seemed to work. Recently, I came down with fibromyalgia and my doctor would not be prepared to treat me as it is not a "recognised illness". I was in chronic pain and was suicidal. I could barely move my tongue inside my mouth and could not walk. I was so ill, I had never experienced anything like the severity of this before. I kept oil pulling and changes occured incrementally every day until after a couple of weeks my health was back to normal. Oil pulling has changed my life and I would recommend it to anyone. It is a POWERFUL remedy."

Oil pulling is one of the most amazing things. I wish everyone could learn about it!"

Dr. Johanna Budwig was the foremost expert in the world on fats and oils. She was able to heal people even from their deathbeds using flaxseed oil and cottage cheese. (It's all about the electrons!) She also recommends veggies and fruit. (no meats, animal fats, or sugar.) She lived into her 90's. and was a nominee for the nobel prize many times. Earth Clinic should be all over this one. It helps all sorts of diseases, Heart Infarction. arthritis, cancer etc, and is good for athletic performance and in fact, the whole family. I have done oil pulling for only a short time and it has helped the floaters in my eye get smaller & less dark. (they were the result of a burst capillary.)"

[YEA]  07/20/2007: Barbara from Lowell, Indiana writes: "I started doing the oil pulling about 2 weeks ago for no other reason than teeth and gum health. Sounded simple enough and if any other problems cleared up so be it. The second day after oil pulling I put a new contact in my eye,a new contact will last about 2 weeks for me, then I dispose of it. The second day I had a bad build up form on the contact and I had to throw it away. Put in a new one and 2 days later the same thing. It did this every other day for a week. I had just been to the eye doctor 2 weeks before starting this oil pulling, so I was confused. I said if this does not clear up in a week or so I'm going back to the doctor. After a week of this I put a new contact in one morning and to my surprise honestly I could see as never before it was like scales fell off my eyes. Colors are so corlorfull I mean like awsome. I can see each indiviual, blade of grass (but the color) I find myself almost driving off the road taking in the beauty And I only wear one ontact because they say my vision is that good. I'm 50 and feel like I have 15 years old eye balls. The only thing different is the oil pulling. I know it's not in my head (it's in my eyes) :) Barbara"

[YEA]  07/18/2007: Joanne from Cole City, USA writes: "This site is a blessing! I love it! I tried the oil pulling a few months ago. I started seeing a black streak on my tongue so I stopped. The streak went away. I've recently started again because it really whitens my teeth and I have more energy, but the black streak on my tongue has returned. Has anyone else experienced this? could you please tell me what is causing this?"

[YEA]  07/03/2007: Heather from Claremore, Oklahoma writes: "This email is for Fran from Montreal, Canada. I read your email in the oil-pulling information, and you said that your daughter has cancer. I don't know a whole lot about cancer, and honestly I'm sure that you know more than I do. My stepfather was diagnosed with colon cancer about three years ago, and was able to get rid of it in two weeks, in all honesty. My mother gave him a STRICT diet according to the book, href="http://www.makersdiet.com/public/about-jordan/about-jordan.aspx" The Maker's Dietby Jordan Rubin. She made sure he ate a lot of lemon-water (no sugar, obviously), avacadoes, guacamole included, tabouli, and other things. She abolished anything with sugar from his diet, and gave him Fiji water (I don't know if it helps tremendously, but when we tested it, the pH level was 9.) I don't want to write too much in this little message, I just want to strongly urge you to seek out that book, if you haven't already learned everything it has to say. I hope your daughter is doing well, and I'll keep you in my prayers."

Mix well, and take a dollop of the mix, rub over face, neck (avoid sensitive eye area) for about 10 min. This leaves my skin feeling tingly fresh as well as so soft and moisturized. N.B While face is still damp apply moisturizer (coconut oil, or a mixture of coconut oil and aqueous cream). This is essential as it forms a barrier and helps trap the moisture in your skin. I believe you should see favourable results after a week. I use the mask only at night through and about twice a week. Enjoy! I put any leftover mask mixture in a tight container and place in fridge, but for no more that a couple of days. It usually keeps. Funny enough I also started oil pulling at night before going to bed, and then brushing. This morning I woke up as I had just brushed my teeth!"

[YEA]  06/11/2007: Fran from Montreal, Canada writes: "I plan on having my daughter try the oil swishing therapy because she has cancer she is presently under radiotherapy for brain cancer. I was wondering if there would be adverse side effects doing the oil swishing therapy while under the radiotherapy treatment. I plan to have her do the baking soda treatment before the oil swishing to bring her pH to normal.Has anyone experienced the oil swishing and baking soda while on radiotherapy or even soon after the radiotherapy. Fran"

[YEA]  06/07/2007: Barbaa from Camden, AR writes: "I had four teeth extracted early 06 and I started having trouble with nearly the rest and I could hardly eat because it was too painful.I started oil pulling in october 06 and been doing it every day since. The result is unbelievable- my mouth is no longer out of alignment, no pain and my teeth are as white as when I was a child. I told one of my sisters about it , she been doing it with great results. I can,t say it,s helping with other problems but it is sure working for my mouth! I am truly grateful for the info. Wish I knew about it before I had four teeth pulled oh well better late than never."

[YEA]  06/07/2007: Barbara from Camden, AR writes: "Lisa from Lake Charles -- Dont give up on OP though you did not get the result you expected it helps to get rid of harmful bacterias and viruses. they are lots of natural treatments for sinus problems e.g. wild oregano, probiotics olive leaf extract. there is a very good wholistic dr on tv he is also a trained Md. He does the program with his wife. I have learned so much from him. I dont think they want me to say his name or else I would tell you and really hate leave my info on the internet."

[YEA]  05/28/2007: Joanne from Cole City, Georiga writes: "I have been doing the oil pulling for several weeks and I have alot more energy, and my teeth are much whiter. I feel great, but I'm wondering what is this black(dark grey) streak is running down the right side of my tongue. Is it toxins coming out of my body? I have no bad side effects other than this colored tongue? I LOVE this site!"

[SIDE EFFECTS]  05/24/2007: Elizabeth from Arlington, TX writes: "I know it may be a little soon for feedback as I have been oil pulling for only 5 days now. However, I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this: starting yesterday my nose has become very tender and producing more, ya know--boogers. I am wondering if, because OP affects mucous, bad stuff is finding its way out via my nose. Sinuses are fine, just the nose. I have started taking coconut oil and ACV at the same time, so I don't know which to attribute these other benefits I have been noticing: Appetite WAY under control on day 1, especially sugars don't interest me and night time munchies gone, don't like coffee when I do OP, lost about 5#. I had no symptoms before starting, just liked the benefits I read about. If anyone else has experienced the nose-thing, please let me know."

[YEA]  05/23/2007: Lee from West Bountiful, Utah writes: "i've been oil pulling and my wife also for one month and three days. to us it has been overwhelming and many very effective changes have occurred in our bodies which allows me to recognize how powerful this therapy is. i have far more peace of mind, extremely improved digestion and elimination, sleep much better, strain in muscles is vanished, im 65 years old, my loose teeth are much tighter and i am feeling like im walking around with a younger persons body. my wife and i have not eaten ice cream or cake or pie or candy or chocolate or soda pop for five years. no white sugar or white bread. in short, we'll change our life in any way to achieve good health. if i we're not to improve any more than this i would do oil pulling for the rest of my life. this is the most powerful therapy that has ever come to me. anyone who won't search and research this method and do it for a month to understand that it works is truly dumber than a rock. my whole story, and my wife's story would take a while to relate. how can we get the world to comprehend?"

[YEA]  05/22/2007: Abby from San Felice Circeo, Italy writes: "Comment and Question: It's been 2 months that I have been oil pulling. The other day a piece of sediment came out of my lower teeth. I thought my tooth was broken. I brush my teeth 3x a day it really amazed me the effect oil pulling had on my teeth. This loosening of sediment must be because of the oil pulling right? I wonder if the same thing has happened to anyone else? Regards Abby"

[YEA]  05/09/2007: Barbarra from Blacksburg, VA writes: "I started oil pulling every morning about 3 weeks ago after reading about it on this website and researching it further on the internet. The pain in my hips that I have been living with for a couple of years has slowly disappeared. I cannot say for certain that it is related to the oil pulling since I used H2O2 for a few days last month and I also used detox clay baths several times over the past few months but I thought it was worth noting. I had 4 emotional down days last week and have felt upbeat and full of energy since. This could be related to the fact that I am female and approching 50... but could be a detox effect, I don't know. Any oil works for me, all turn white within 5-10 minutes with no adverse effects. I have removed several moles with blood root ( enouraged by your testimonials) and it worked like a charm, the only issue I have is with the healing of the cavity left after the mole falls off. The skin pulls together and forms a keloid with redish discoloration. It actually looks worse than the mole. Is there anything I can use to support the healing process? I have been using VitE without improvement. Thanks for all your input and comments, now I feel so connected to the holistic health community. That's Great!"

[YEA]  05/08/2007: Rita from Stelle, IL writes: "I found an easy way to keep the oil in my mouth for twenty minutes. I check my email. Time goes by so fast. Moving the oil in my mouth is not a very demanding activity in terms of intense concentration. Reading the events of the day on line while oil pulling works really well together."

[YEA]  05/07/2007: Annie from Ann Arbor, Michigan writes: "For years I have had a raw, almost purplish red area on my throat that always alarmed physicians but they could not heal it. I did the op and within 4 days the redness is fading significantly. My throat is looking a normal pink color and the soreness is leaving. This is like a miracle since nothing had helped in the past. i have no idea what was the source of the problem but I am thrilled to see it being healed."

[YEA]  05/05/2007: Vasalisa from Detroit , Michigan writes: "I have been very distressed by a horrible taste in my mouth that was metalic in nature. Nothing would get rid of it and it was so awful that I would awaken at night due to the bitterness. I tried the oil pulling for 10 minutes twice a day and had the most wonderful relief. It was not difficult or unpleasant. What a great cure."

[SIDE EFFECTS]  05/04/2007: John from Grendi, Malta writes: "oil pulling cause tmj pain"

[YEA]  04/29/2007: Dani from Queens, NY writes: "I have been oil pulling for about 5 weeks now. First thing I noticed was my sweet tooth completely gone, needless to say with that came weight loss. Also it is true that your ailments first worsen before getting better. My biggest thing was leg pain from my varicose veins. When I first started OP it hurt for about a week since then I haven't had any pain. Thank you for all your great help."

[SIDE EFFECTS]  04/28/2007: John from NY, NY writes: "I have been regularly on ACV and occassionally H2O2 since 3 months. Oil pulling for more than 40 days. I have candida on my tongue that really causes a lot of trouble. I suspect this is the cause of my sinus, clumsy head and everything other problem i have. The oil pulling did not have any affect on it so far. But, it does help me get relieve the clogged sinuses in the morning. My teeth did not change in anyway. At one time, it brought out an old problem i used to have, when my chest becomes really heavy and gives pain when i stretch or do any movement that involves those muscles. It is almost gone now, but i still have a little pain. I don't know if this is a side effect, but i started having very dry lips from a 2 weeks. It may be bacuse of the ACV. But, I am drinking plenty of water and using every oil, balm etc. Lips are still dry. Now, I occassinally switch ACV with Lemon juice(yes, i always used the baking soda). I started feeling better when I started adding H2O2 regularly. I noticed that I have less heaviness in my breathing when H2O2 is present. I generally feel very weak. Molassses and ACV helped me tremendously, but i feel I am still not 100%. What would be the best way for me to go? SHould I continue oil pulling? Add something else to what I am doing?"

[NAY]  04/26/2007: Lisa from Lake Charles, LA writes: "I have been oil pulling faithfully for over a month now, going on two. I still have sinus problems, and I have noticed absolutely no benefits. I do it for twenty minutes every morning on an empty stomach, and swish afterwards with equals parts water and hydrogen pyroxide. No difference. I am very skeptical about the results reported from others, I also believe that mind can convince someone of an expected result, which goes back around to, "Whatever works"."

[YEA]  04/16/2007: August from Fallbook, Calif writes: "oil pulling- I am 71 years old, neck hurt since I was 12 yr. havent slept with a pillow for 31 years. the first week my neck stopped hurting, and slept with a pillow, second week i gave up my heating pad that i used for 40 years."

[YEA]  04/16/2007: Vaidvij from Bangalore, India writes: "I have been practising OP for the past 4 months and the benefits I get are much more. First of all, my oral health has become very well that my bad teeth are trying to behave good! Secondly, my periods have become more regular, with less problems. There is a pleasant sensation in the mouth always, appetite is good which satiates with less amount of food, and am able to do more work now more vigorously. I don't know if it is a psycological bend of mind after having read abt.OP, I do have a positive attitude towards life now a days. I will definitely come back after a few more months giving fresh status."
