Lovedtodeath Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Has anyone tried oil pulling? I am looking for experiences in this area for oral, sinus and skin health. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sputterduck Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 I googled it and it looks hokey. They talk about "bacteria embryos" which, obviously, makes no sense. Also, they say that after swishing the oil for 15-20 minutes, there is bacteria in it. Well, sure there is. The mouth is full of bacteria.

ThatCyndiGirl Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 This was ALL THE RAGE on MDC a couple of years ago. I was remarkably unimpressed. It seemed like everybody was SO EXCITED about it, but.....I never heard any glowing reports of long-term success. It seems like just another natural fad. (juicing, liquid vitamins, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
