The Oil Pulling Miracle, and What It Can Do For You!

If you’ve never come across Oil Pulling therapy before you may be wondering what on earth it is. I certainly did when I first heard about it! Many absurd thoughts and images crossed my mind, including one of a very frustrated bodybuilder trying to grab some oil and pull it apart… Hmmm… Well, you can be rest assured that this therapy has nothing to do with physically trying to pull oil apart with your bare hands! And certainly nothing to do with bodybuilders… And I am very glad to inform you that you could probably do it right now, free of charge.

What Is It Exactly?

Oil Pulling is a very simple, age old Ayurvedic process performed by taking about a tablespoon of oil, putting it in your mouth and swishing it around for 15-20 minutes. It was Dr. (med.) Karach who said: The Oil Pulling heals totally “head-aches, bronchitis, tooth pain, thrombosis, eczema, ulcers and diseases of stomach, intestines, heart, blood, kidney, liver, lungs and women’s diseases. It heals diseases of nerves, paralysis, and encephalitis. It prevents the growth of malignant tumours, cuts and heals them. Chronic sleeplessness is cured.”

It works because of the oil’s molecular properties. The oil mixes with your saliva, and it is this mixture that works together to rid the mouth of unwanted toxins and chemicals.

Results and Diseases Cured

In a society where people expect everything to be instant, it’s hard to be patient especially if you’re suffering from a malady of some sort. However, you must understand that healing the body properly will take time, so don’t expect a miracle to happen overnight! Oil Pulling targets the root cause of the problem so it will take some time to get the desired results. The time it takes depends on the individual.

It’s surprising that through this biological healing method a wide variety of symptoms have unquestionably disappeared without any side effects. This simple method makes it possible to completely heal a wide variety of diseases, normally which would be treated by an operation or by powerful or potent drugs, usually with significant side effects. Dr. Karach has successfully healed a chronic leukaemia patient with 15 years of harsh treatment methods behind him. He has also healed acute arthritis in one patient who was totally bedridden, and it was removed from his body in 3 days with no inflammation apparent!

Oil Pulling is Not Even Just for Major Illnesses…

It can prove beneficial to your overall well-being. Just this morning I came upon my mother who, after being recommended it, reluctantly started Oil Pulling the previous day. She didn’t like the idea of having oil in her mouth much but she did it anyway and was very surprised at the result! Prior to Oil Pulling she’d been experiencing some tooth pain for a while, but the therapy seemed to have ridden her of the pain overnight and she found herself doing it again the next day!

My brother has been doing Oil Pulling for a long while now and has noticed a major change in the health and state of his teeth! These personal revelations are what spurred me to write this hub because Oil Pulling has worked for my family, and it could work for you too! It’s very easy to do: you could even do it while showering, exercising or even whilst dishwashing (if you’re a busy housewife)! So, skipping the chit-chat, we’ll get straight to the method!

The Method!

The method is simple:

1) Get some oil! Any oil will do. Most households own a supply of oil for cooking purposes, so it should be easy to get hold of! Apparently, sunflower or sesame oil work particularly well, but any type of oil is good. Personally, I prefer to use organic virgin coconut oil because it’s good for your health in general and tastes better than other oils!

2) Put it in! About a tablespoon. It’s usually best to do Oil Pulling in the morning on an empty stomach, especially for those who are just starting out - but there's nothing to stop you from doing it at any time in the day!

3) Swish it! But don’t swallow or gargle it! Especially nearing the end, as the oil will be loaded with the toxic chemicals ‘pulled’ from your mouth. Move the oil around all areas of your mouth and through your teeth especially. You’ll find that the oil starts to get watery as it mixes with your saliva. If your jaws start to ache from the swishing, relax a little – it will soon become second nature to you!

4) Spit it out! As the session comes to a close you’ll notice that the oil/saliva mixture in your mouth has become thicker since it has pulled the toxins out of your body. You will need to spit it out into a bin, but never in the sink because it’s toxic! And don’t worry if it looks yellowish, this is quite normal!

5) Rinse your mouth out! With warm water and spit it into the bin. You’ll feel quite thirsty after the session has ended, so drink a little water to hydrate yourself.

6) Relax! It’s over. See, it was much easier than you thought, right?

You can repeat this process up to 3 times throughout the day.

Some Precautions

· As I previously mentioned, don’t swallow the mixture. If you do, however, don’t worry – it will soon be -ahem- excreted!

· If you’re allergic to a particular type of oil then be sure to avoid it! Switch to a different type of oil!

· Recommended oils to use are Sunflower or Sesame oil. Cold-pressed Sunflower/Sesame oil is mostly regarded as the best choice, but if it’s not available you can use refined oil. It’s been observed that any oil other than Sunflower or Sesame may not be as effective.

To Sum Up…

Your mouth represents the state of your whole body. If your mouth is disease-ridden and your teeth are in bad shape then it’s not a good sign! Hopefully Oil Pulling will really make a difference to your overall well-being. If it has, please post a comment – I would love to know! If you are further interested in Oil Pulling, there's a very good book by Dr. Bruce Fife. However, there honestly isn't much more that you need to know in order to start benefiting from Oil Pulling. And if you’re still questioning the benefits of Oil Pulling and think it’s just too good to be true, the Internet is always open for your personal investigation! But honestly, with a remedy as simple, easy and effective as this you really have nothing to lose and everything to gain.
