Interesting. Both oil and clay are helpful for your mouth and gums. But i wouldn’t do them together. Only because clay works by absorbing anything and everything near it which is great for getting rid of mouth bacteria even abscesses, etc. But it will also absorb the good stuff in the oil and cancel it out to some extent. It’s not bad for you but you’re just missing some of the benefit. ... ... I’d oil pull and swish with the clay some hours apart from each other for maximum effect. [End]

I’m pretty new to this stuff and I’m sure there might be lots of different theories, but a basic and simple thing that I’ve gathered from my research is that the bacteria in the mouth and deep in the pockets of the gums are attracted to the oil because it is a natural anti-bacterial. By decreasing the amount of bacteria in the mouth, it enhances your oral health. There have been many studies linking good oral health to good health in general, especially heart health. The mouth is a very good avenue for bacteria to get into the blood stream. The oil pulling reduces this bacteria. ... ... T ...

I am new to OP. I have been using sunflower oil for about a week now. No blobs. ... ... I have gum issues.....pockets and bleeding. The bleeding is not all the time, but just before I began OPing, it was fairly heavy in one spot of my mouth. After first day of OP it was diminished significantly. After 2nd day, it was gone. Well, if I did some heavy duty flossing or using of the rubber tip, it would start again, but just the brushing of the teeth no longer started the bleeding. ... ...

That was the first thing I noticed too - gums that were bleeding most of my life stopped bleeding. And I’ve never had it since. ... ... When you go to the dentist don’t tell them about oil pulling before the exam. They won’t be impressed. Wait for them to tell you about the shape of things before you comment. If they’re chomping at the bit to give you some kind of expensive procedure they won’t be very positive anyway.. Not that that kind of thing ever happens ... ;-) [End]

When my mom bought me a bottle of unrefined sunflower oil, I had a sinus infection and couldn’t quite smell or taste it. I wanted to try oil pulling with the sunflower oil to see if it’d help as much or more than extra virgin olive oil. ... ... Anyway, sometimes I use sunflower oil as a moisturizer as well, and I accidentally left the bottle in the bathroom when I took a shower (exposing it to steam and moisture). ... ... No longer sick, I can smell and taste again, and the oil smells and tastes like nuts or cashews. I keep reading that sunflower oil has is very mild in taste, so I don’t know if som ...

I started oil pulling with coconut oil six days ago. I am 31 years old, not on any other medications, I don’t smoke, and eat healthy. After my third time oil pulling, I woke up in the morning and I felt like I was inside a ball that someone was rolling around. I was so dizzy that I just fell back down. I couldn’t move without it happening. Eventually, I was dry heaving from the intense motion sickness. I didn’t think in a million years that something as simple as swishing oil in my mouth could cause this. It lasted for three days! I had a margarita the night before with some friends an ...

Wow- what a terrible reaction! If you’ve established that it’s the oil pulling causing this, it seems very likely that you’re allergic to the oil you’re using. Since coconut oil is stronger than others for detox purposes it could be a detox reaction, but given the intensity it seems unlikely to me. ... ... If you DO decided to go back to oil pulling, try a different oil. Flax Seed, (untoasted) Sesame oil, Sunflower, etc. Personally I use coconut oil, but the detox effects are too strong for me to use every day. My main oil is Flax Seed, but you have to make sure it stays refrigerated.

I am so sorry that you were having trouble. Vertigo or having dizziness problems can be a real disruption to a productive, enjoyable day for sure. Life is no fun with Vertigo. ... ... I don’t know about Coconut oil being stronger than other oils, although it very well could be I suppose, due to it’s apparent small molecular structure (i.e. it is said to absorb better than some... or so I’ve read). It is also quite possible as MrCuddly has stated, that you very well might have an allergy to Coconut. It IS known to be an allergen with some people.

Have you ever tried Tamanu and tea tree oil combo? Tea tree is anti inflammatory and tamanu oil ( yes oil ) diminishes scarring ( saw it on Dr OZ ). I didn’t believe it either. Someone on this site recommended it and a business and so I thought why not. I pass it along to you and hope it works for you as well. Good luck. TNT from www.MyBlueDolphinSoap.com pay it forward.

Started oil pulling with coconut oil a week ago at the recommendation of my dentist for receding gums. Pulled 1/day for abt 15 minutes. I noticed some anxiety starting to build & by the fifth day I was having full blown panic attacks & my tongue was very sore. Have stopped - my tongue is less sore but I still have some anxiety. I have never seen anything about anxiety related to OP. Would love to continue - my teeth are exceptionally white in just 5 days & I do believe in the purported benefits - but I can’t tolerate what I’ve experienced this week…. Need some insight/advice.

Usually oil pulling removes gum swelling and puffiness which can scare people when they see things in their gums that were hidden by swelling before. If your gums normal state is swollen or puffy, you might want to go for a tooth cleaning - you might have food or something else under the gums causing irritation. ... ... For tooth tightening, coconut oil seems to have the fastest and strongest effect - but they all work. [End]

Olive oil DOES tend to stain your teeth plus it has a strong taste that makes it hard for some people to pull with. Sesame oil is the original oil that’s been used for seriously thousands of years as is the 20 minute period. I wouldn’t worry about toxins being reabsorbed with 20 minutes. ... ... It’s actually more about bacteria than inert toxins. Fat attracts bacteria (which live in your fat cells). So the oil pulling brings bacteria from below the surfaces in your mouth into the mix which you spit out. At least that’s the theory - but no denying that it works. ... ... Even though sesame oil i ...
