I’ve watched some show ages ago about cleanses etc and they did a oil detox. Basically they sat for 20mins swilling oil in there mouth changed its 3 times but just kept doing it. It comes out all white and cloudy dunno if that the swilling acting like a whisk or what but its something people do as a detox.

Mine was white when I spat it out. I also thought it must have come from the whisk like process

I did oil pulling awhile back. I need to get some more coconut oil and start again. It did seem to help my teeth a lot. It also seems like it does a detox to your body. I know I felt like I had the flu for just 1 day after I first used it . I use it while I shower and then spit it when I get out.

I only use a teaspoon amount of coconut oil...can't handle a tablespoon without gagging.

I've always wanted to do that because I know there are many great benefits of doing that but oil in my mouth makes me gag so bad, I can't stand it.

So instead I am using something called Earthpaste and it's great! They use Redmond Clay as a base and its all natural. They only use the clay and essential oils in the earthpaste. My daughter loves it and I don't have to worry about her swallowing toothpaste because this stuff is safe to swallow. In fact people ingest Redmond clay all the time for health benefits.

Just thought I would throw that out there as an alternative for people who have a hard time tolerating oil in their mouth but want to try something more natural.

I started using a heaping teaspoon as well. Still gag though until it turns to liquid. Can't believe how white my teeth are looking. The pain in my teeth is a lot better.

I told my Osteopath about it and he told me that he swallows 2 teaspoons of coconut oil a day. But that he will start to use it this way as well. I did not ask him why he was eating it...sure he has some healthy explanation but just doing this is a big change for me.

Will continue until 2 weeks up and then decide if it is going to be part of my daily routine.......

Never heard of it. Will look it up and take a peak about it..Thanks!

I'm a huge supporter of oil pulling. If it's the lard like feel of cold coconut oil go ahead and warm it up. It also helps clear your sinus up. My nut was so happy I already do this. Also as a dog groomer I use the heck out of coconut oil. Allergies or red spots dry nose so much. The best results I've ever seen is a Pom who had been bald for two years with allergies came to me and was growing hair back in 6 weeks! Pm me for recipes for SPaw recipes.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
