'Oil Pulling' is a Natural Healing Remedy
I stopped by my favorite health food store this morning for one of their incredible smoothies. As always, I left with more than a smoothie! Over a half hour later, I departed with more incredible natural health knowledge! One of the remedies I learned about today is “Oil Pulling”. The owner of the store has been practicing Oil Pulling for years and found after just a few days of practice, his gingivitis (bleeding gums) disappeared, and over a few months his teeth were whiter and his hair started to go back to its regular color (from grey) – Wow!
I know that this health practice seems a little strange at the outset, but keep an open mind and also do your own research on this practice. It is very interesting!
Oil pulling is a regimen developed by Dr. Karach. He wrote a research paper that documented a healing procedure involving cold pressed oils. Using this method, one could heal a lot of chronic illnesses, diseases, preventing the need for surgery or medication.
The main premise behind the method is that the oil pulls the toxins from your blood and into the mucous membrane, this is why it is never swallowed.
According to Dr. Karach, this treatment will achieve remarkable results with illnesses like migraine headaches, bronchitis, diseased teeth, arterio thrombosis, chronic blood disorders such as leukemia, arthritis and related illnesses, neuro physiological paralysis, eczema, gastro enteritis, peritonitis, heart disease, kidney disease, meningitis, and women’s hormonal disorders are completely eliminated from the organism. The benefit of Dr. Karach’s method is that the oil therapy heals the whole body. In terminal diseases such as cancer, aids and chronic infections this treatment method has been shown to achieve astonishing results.*
Oil Pulling Steps
(Steps taken from ‘Oilpulling.com’)
Step 1:
The first thing in the morning on an empty stomach and before drinking any liquids (including water), pour exactly one tablespoon of flax seed or sesame oil (or whatever oil you prefer) into your mouth. (Tip: The Natural Health food store owner uses Coconut Oil as it has a great taste! You will need to heat up Coconut Oil as it is solid at room temperature)
Step 2:
Swish the oil around in your mouth without swallowing it. Move it around in your mouth and through your teeth, as if it was mouthwash (don’t tilt your head back to gargle though). You’ll find that the oil will start to get watery as your saliva mixes with it. Keep swishing.If your jaw muscles get sore while swishing, you’re putting too much into it. Relax your jaw muscles and use your tongue to help move the liquid around the inside of your mouth. When you do this correctly, you’ll feel very comfortable. Pretty soon, it will become second nature.
Step 3:
As the end of the oil pulling session approaches, you may notice the oil/saliva mixture in your mouth has become thicker. This is quite normal, since it is pulling out toxins from your body. When 20 minutes is up, spit out the oil. Don’t be alarmed if it looks yellowish–this is also normal.
Step 4:
Rinse out your mouth a couple of times with warm water and spit. Done! 🙂
I did my first oil pulling swish/spit today and will give you an update in a few weeks!
