No known cure for this condition, but OP has a significant effect on it.

*Edited* And last but not least, here is a show of hands on the people that were doing OP during this time. It accounts for a great many that are on Curezone, and I'm sure there are many more that did not see the post.

It's more successful than we ever thought it would be.

i was pretty cleaned up when i started. however:

my mouth is clean and fresh. my teeth are stronger than ever and less sensitive and whiter. the tissues in my mouth have been cleansed of much mercury damage. my eyesight has improved, especially night vision. my mind is quieter, less influenced by the outside world. my liver is in the best condition since my 20's.

The Joy of Oil Pulling

Sore joints stopped hurting -- no need for Ibuprofen at bedtime anymore
No more "computer neck"
Pink gums, pink tongue, white teeth
Noticeably less gray hair, more brown hair
Keratosis Pilaris (bumpy upper arms and other parts) reduced by 95%
Softer, smoother skin all over
Sounder sleep
Significantly less ear wax
No more oily areas of face, known as T-zones
Gratification of knowing I've shared a healthy practice with husband, son, sister, parents, aunt, cousin, many friends, all of whom now share with their friends

Mood Enhancer - Did not know that I was depressed, but after oil pulling for a few weeks noticed that I was almost always in a good mood, even around TOM.

Softer smoother less wrinkled Skin especially around my eyes and mouth

Healed cracked Heels

My upper arms had very bumpy skin (think this might be KP) Arms are now smooth. This took a couple of months though.

Tongue and mouth a lighter pink color

I can confirm what others have said...

In addition, along with diet and other healthy habits, I have regrown receding gum tissue. I also believe, cannot confirm, that as my teeth have seated more firmly, they straightened out a bit.

I used to have very straight teeth, that over the years became crooked and loose. I am hoping that the dental arch is once again widening out and over the years I will see improvement in this.

My wife had been an on again, off again oil puller... for about 5 minutes a day or so about a year ago. She has terrible teeth and pockets; some WERE 8s and 9s before pulling. All of them reduced in depth over time with oil pulling; then she got out of the habit; they were better and she dropped it. About 2 months ago she went to her orthodontist and he told her he wanted her back in a month for extraction. That shook her up enough and she started pulling like crazy and asked me what to do. I told her to add a few drops of oregano oil to every pull.

Long story short... she did not need the extraction; after just a month! She now has her oil with her on any trip she takes... and her whole family and most of her friends are now doing it. She is a walking testimonial.

Another thing... she used to get sick all the time and has not been in two months. I would bet that the oil pulling is a part of that, but so is the added oregano oil. I also convinced her to give up fluoride tooth pastes which could have had a positive impact as well.

I've been OPing for about 2 mos. I had originally been told that I HAD to have a root canal, but after 2 wks of OPing, I was told we could watch that tooth instead. My teeth look whiter & feel cleaner, my gums feel healthy, my breath is nice (even frist thing in the am), my skin feels smoother & less dry and my mood seems more even. I feel centered and as if I could handle anything. I usually use EVCO and oregano oil and love doing this!!

One other thing, I had had Bell's Palsy and my face was weaker on the right side. I believe OPing has strengthened my jaw so I even yawn more evenly!

I have been oil pulling since 9 months, everyday, first thing in the morning with sesame oil. Since then I experience strong mental sharpness. I have never been a morning person and it used to take me two or three hours to be able to function properly. My mood was also not the best one and I would experience anxiety during these morning hours. This is gone now. I am a completely new person as far as my ability to concentrate onto my tasks. My mood has greatly improved. Believe me when for years and years you have suffered from this morning fog feeling good again is like a gift from God. Yes I attribute this change to oil pulling as it is the only thing different that I have been doing since.What happens after I am done is that I have to blow my nose at least a dozen times. After this it is all clear and a great feeling of being awake. The best proof of what I just said happened this morning: for the first time in nine months I have not pulled. I was just totally out of sesame oil (now that I realize I should have pulled with olive oil). Well well! Immediately back to my old foggy self. It took me a good two hours to really concentrate onto the tasks at hand. Believe me I will never run out of oil again.
My wife has been pulling all along with me. She used to sneeze a lot (and I mean A LOT) this is hardly the case now.
So is oil pulling working for us? You bet it does. I have not felt that good intellectually since I was in my late twenties ( I am in my early fifties).
Many thanks to CureZone for having given me the opportunity to experience this.

I had receded gums at one tooth, it's been that way for many years. I started OPing a month ago (every morning with sesame oil, some days sunflower) and I just recently noticed that the gum has regrown, there is still a tiny part of my tooth exposed but the difference is huge and pretty amazing (the root is now covered, there is just that groove that is immediately under the gumline that is still there). I didn't even expect this, I wasn't looking for it to grow back, I just happened to notice it has moved up considerably and couldn't believe it at first since I read everywhere that gums don't grow back once gone. They do with OPing!! I will report when it's completely healed (almost there:-)

Also, my teeth seemed to get whiter in the first week.

It's been only a month so I will report more benefits as they come.

Is this my imagination, or does oil pulling really work!!!! Long story short, I got sick the beginning of 2004, bronchitis, ear infection, sinus infection all at the same time. Given antibiotic, got better. But sinus infection returned & continued to return every other month. If I wasn't on an Antibiotic I had a sinus infection. March 2006 I had sinus surgery, got better, but not 100%, still had sinus infections every so often. Also, find out I'm allergic to wheat & dairy. Go on Allegra D & Nasacort. Allergies become managable & sinus infections not quite as often. Find this website regarding oil pulling a month ago. Start oil pulling 3 weeks ago today w/ Sesame Oil & I haven't taken an Allegra D since then. Use Nasacort, maybe every 3rd day. I'm a believer, I feel like a new person. I hardly have post nasal drip anymore, I can breathe easier, have more energy. I'm actually on my way to the health food store to get more oil!!!! Thanks to all the posters out there who convinced me to try this.

Yayyy! Oil of Oregano cured my gum infection :) AND saved me $150 bucks for a cleaning of only 3 teeth my Dentist suggested, and if that didn't work, he said I would have to take some Antibiotics .

I just put the OOO on the affected area, and a few drops in my Sunflower Oil for Oil Pulling and Oil Pulled 2 times a day (I had stopped OP'ing for about a month, bad mistake) and WALA! CURED! The gum infection was totally gone within 6 days!

Thanks Curezone :)
