[YEA] 01/07/2008: Angel from Troy, USA writes: "I have been oiling pulling for 3 weeks now after accidentlly coming across this web page. I was suffering from a sinus infection for 3 months and taking dayquil everyday just to get through the day. After one time of OP my sinus drained imediately, I did't have to wait. I stopped the meds that day, continued to OP, mucus pulled out everyday. I am amazed. Also my teeth, gums, and tongue are cleaner than ever. A couple of things I did't expect: My energy has skyrocketed, even in the morning (its been at least 20 years I have had energy like this without caffine). Also I don't crave caffine, sugar, salt. I sleep restful and don't need as much sleep. My skin is as soft as a baby. I was hooked on monster energy drinks, I drank at least 3 aday, but none since OP. God gives us the tools to heal ourself, we just have to use them. Thank-you."

[YEA] 12/30/2007: Ann Kelly from Glasgow, Scotland writes: "I tried the Oil Pulling remedy and found my mouth felt very clean and 'lubricated' - almost like my mouth was younger inside!!! I recommended it to my sister, but I am a little concerned because she is on thyroxin for her thyroid. Does anyone know of any adverse effects from using OP alongside thyroxin?"

[YEA] 12/28/2007: Toni from Tujunga, California writes: "I had a Sinus infection that started in April 2006, I found out 8 months later is was an infected root canal, which led me on a battle for my health, Traditional Medical and Dental professionsals had me ping ponging back and forth between them, i see now due to their ignorance. had my mouth cleaned up a month ago all metals out, have been detoxing since and feel better and worse at the same time. Started oil Pulling 2 1/2 weeks ago and noticed the Sinus infection has improved and at the same time feels a little worse, can Ted comment on my situation? I feel that the benefits of Oil Pulling can help more than anything, the Biological Dentist had a Homeopathic MD take a saliva test to make sure all metals were out of my mouth before they did a Cavitation surgery on the infected tissue left behind from infected tooth. My question is does it take time for sinus to heal? Any feedback from anyone would be most helpful. Thank You, Toni"

[SIDE EFFECTS] 12/27/2007: Jenmal from jenmal@gmail.com writes: "I found this site because I was searching for a rememdy for the whiteness on my tounge. I struggled with the idea of OP for about a week and decided to do it. The first time I did it I did it for 20 minutes, but immediatly noticed my tounge was nice and pink again. The second day and beyond(now on my 5th day), i got a cold sore which I get very infrequently,and I also would get weird headaches too, so I hope it is s good sign. It is one of the worst cold sores I have ever had BTW, and I also felt real sick for a little while and sluggish.It almost feels like things are trying to leave my body. I am going to keep it up and see what develops, and will post my results later."

[YEA] 12/18/2007: Paul from Miami, Florida writes: "I tried oil pulling for the first time this morning and it had an incredible effect on my thrush. Not only that but my gums have already almost completely stopped bleeding. I've been on medicine after medicine for thrush but each one makes it worse and the doctors were stupmed. 1 session of oil pulling (I only did it for 5 mins to start off) has gotten rid of most of my thrush except the thick parts in the back of my tongue. This is truely amazing."

[YEA] 12/14/2007: Jenny from Rock Hill, SC writes: "About 8 months ago, my wisdom teeth were giving me so much pain I could barely speak, much less eat. The dentists would tell me to go to a surgeon to get them removed and the surgeon would tell me to see my dentist because they weren't out enough to be removed! After about 2 weeks of this non-sense, a friend told me to try oil-pulling. After the first 4 days, I started seeing results! My teeth weren't hurting so much and they felt cleaner. I haven't visited a dentist since then, nor any other doctor. I haven't even gotten a cold this year!! I used to get a cold or fever or sinus infections (you name it) every few months with the change in the weather, but not this year! I had a sore throat 2 weeks ago but that lasted 2 days and I was better already! My face looks brighter and I feel more energized as well. I would recommend this to anybody, whether you have problems or not. It's absolutely amazing! I feel healthier now than I did 5 years ago! Thank you so much for sharing this!"

[YEA] 12/02/2007: Tay from Richmond, VA writes: "I heard my sister talking about the result she was seeing of OP, so I decided to read up on it and came across this website. I can testify within ten minutes of me OP on the first day, my body starting detoxing and I had this pimple come up on my face, I knew that this OP was working on my body that fast, my energy level has skyrocketed and I no longer feel sluggish in the morning when first getting up, b/c that the first thing I do as soon as I get up... it works for me and I will continute this journey for about 30 days, then maybe bringing that down to 2-3 times a week. I will keep you guys updated on how things are looking up!"

[YEA] 12/01/2007: Debo from Tel Shevah, Israel writes: "I have been oil pulling for a little over a month now and have had some wonderful results. 1. teeth that had begun to loosen are now firmed up in the gums.
2. definitely whiter teeth and fresher breath.
3. Quite unexpectedly, I have lost 4 kilos with no change in eating habits! This is something I have been trying to do for over a year with mixed results. And the weight has stayed off.
4. A reduction in my fat index. Lessening of fatty build-up in my abdominal area.
5. DEEEEP restful sleep.
6. Cessation of heart palpatations.
7. Initially I had seen a marked lowering of blood pressure although it has now gone back up, which possibly can be attributed to me starting to eat foods that were no-nos for me after I saw the easy weight loss and lowered blood pressure. I shall return to my restricted diet and see if I note a lowering again.
9. Much greater energy levels and increased stamina.
10. An overall healthier and glowing appearance, skin and hair.
While I can't begin to say why this works scientifically, it stands to reason that if the oilpulling reduces the toxic load in the mouth(which, let's face it, can be a cesspool) the immune system is freed up to reduce and remove the toxic load in other tissues."
Replies12/03/2007: Sandy from Bangalore, India replies: "Hi Debo, Since you lost weight since starting oilpulling, please give details on the following, as I am also interested in weightloss through oil pulling: Which oil did you use? How many times a day did you do oil pulling? What time of the day do you do oil pulling? How long did it take you to lose weight since you started oil pulling? Thanks."

[YEA] 11/26/2007: Trish from Kansas City, MO writes: "Hi, I've been oil pulling for about a month now. I try to do it five days a week at the least. I usually do it on the days that I take Ted's lemon juice and baking soda recipe. It's best to do it first thing in the morning. If you take the lemon juice or ACV with baking soda like I do, wait at least half an hour to 45 minutes to allow it to digest before you start the pulling. Then pull for about 20 minutes and get the digestive juices going again. (The baking soda inhibits digestion for a while, and you will be miserable if you try to eat immediately after.) Then I have a big glass of water (after I have rinsed my mouth really well) with 8 drops of H2O2 and wait another 15 to 30 mniutes before eating. This process really helps my digestive system to 'get going' in the morning. The first week I pulled I broked out horribly, especially around my cheeks. Then I remembered my chiropractor saying she, too, had broken out horribly after she had her toxic metal fillings removed from her teeth. I have metal fillings from years ago and realized that it must really be eliminating a lot of the metal from my bloodstream. I haven't noticed any changes in the way I feel, but I can definitely see from the skin erruptions and sneezes that follow the pulling sessions that I am getting something toxic out of my body. For the people who aren't feeling different yet or noticing physical results, keep pulling. Sometimes it takes many months or even a year to see remarkable results, depending on your level of toxicity. We have spent many years messing up our bodies. They aren't going to heal over night. Hope this helps."

11/15/2007: Doug from San Diego, California writes: "You all had me nervous the whole night before I began my Oil Pulling. It didn't taste bad, and I didn't gag. I did it for 15 minutes the first morning. It was more like an exercise for the facial muscles. I hope to see whiter teeth. I also hope my Dentist notices an improvement in my gums!"

[YEA] 11/13/2007: Michael from Bowling Green, Kentucky writes: "Oil Pulling, Ok so it got so bad I turned to the internet. I was sitting at home suffering from the worst sinus infection I have ever had. So I thought I would google my problem and this website poped up first. This was the first time that I had ever heard of oil pulling. Honestly I have to say I thought it would be disgusting. However I was at the point of no return, I had to do something. So I was willing to give it a shot. At first I could not notice any effects of the oil and by the second time I tried it my symptoms were worse. But as the website said I continued and by my third time I was feeling 10X's better. It not only cured by sinus problems but made me feel more relaxed all around. Thank you so much for the info."

[YEA] 11/09/2007: Taylor from NY, USA writes: "I have been doing Oil pulling for one month. I read that it helps hormonal problems, but i didnt think it would erradicate my cramps. But after pulling for 1 month, my menstrual cramps and other pms associated problems are almost non existant. For the first time in years i was able to spend the first day of my course like any other normal day, not bent over in agonizing pain. And my skin has cleared up as well. My sister started OP and after a week she had the same outcome!! No Cramps. I will continue to OP and wait to see all the benefits from "pulling" the toxins out of my body. I also find that it is VERY!!! important that you brush your teeth and drink a large glass of water after pulling because you are releasing these poisonous toxins and you want to get them out."

[YEA] 11/04/2007: Hollis from Hilo, Hawaii writes: "I've been pulling oil since 10/06 and feel that the most obvious improvment is in my teeth and gums.....bright white teeth and healthy gums that hold my teeth firmly in place where they used to be loose before. Also I sleep more soundly and feel refreshed in the morning. I want to do this for the rest of my life and wonder if that would be OK or not. Is there anything negative that could come from my pulling oil once a day forever.....I'm 65 and it sure beats medication."

[YEA] 10/11/2007: Joan from Laurel, Maryland writes: "Hi, I am in the process of retiring on disability. Last year, my health dramatically declined. My doctor thinks it may be Lyme disease even though I've tested negative. I have been experiencing extreme fatigue and body aches for almost a year now. I started oil pulling about three weeks ago. I'm now only experiencing one or two days per week of extreme fatigue and body aches. For the first time in a year, I feel well enough to tackle the clutter that has built up in my house, I've been organizing and cleaning regularly. I still tire easily, but I am feeling well enough to tackle some pretty big jobs one at a time! Thanks so much for this info. It is really making a difference!"

[YEA] 10/10/2007: Mark K from Ellensburg, WA writes: "I stumbled across this website looking for a cure for my allergies. I have missed weeks from work due to allergies in the last year. I used ACV and that helped with the allergies but I still had some problems. I started oil pulling and I could really see the toxins leaving my body thru mucas ect.. After two weeks my allergies have been cured and I feel great."

[YEA] 09/17/2007: Valerie Wright from Toronto, Ontario Canada writes: "Have been oil pulling for 12 days and taking coconut oil for 10. Am thrilled with the results. On the 2nd day of OP my sinuses started to drain (didn't know they were congested) and two days later my lungs started to expel mucuus. Also found that I was sleeping much better and had more energy.Of course, the mouth and teeth felt great. I am taking coconut oil about 3 times a day. It is all absolutely astounding. I just love your site. Aren't we lucky?"

[YEA] 09/17/2007: Sylvia from Laveen, Arizona writes: "I started OP two weeks ago. The results are amazing. My sinus problems have cleared up after much mucus building and spitting the first few days. Sinus med's are now a thing of the past. My teeth are brighter and my gums no longer bleed when I brush my teeth. My hair is thicker and shinier. I have adult acne that flairs up at times and the OP hasn't really done much for that. I will keep up on the OP daily in hopes that it will clear up my skin. This OP is amazing."

[YEA] 08/28/2007: Tricia from San Francisco, California writes: "Oil Pulling: starting out. I've had a cold that wasn't going away, and seemed to be getting worse, if anything. My congestion, and the amount of mucus that was coming out when I blow my nose has been alot. I started wondering if I might have a sinus infection, so I thought I'd try oil pulling. Did it once in the afternoon yesterday, and once in the evening, and suddenly realized that, for the first time in a week, I could breathe clearly. Have done it twice today, and have just experienced a strange thing: I blew my nose and the mucus came out bright yellow, like egg yolk. I have never seen anything like this, and was wondering if Ted or any readers could comment?"
Replies06/22/2008: Diann from Ft. Worth, Texas replies: "To Patricia...I had commented to someone else about the same thing, but for a loss of how to spell it, I cut my experience short. My sinus infection had gone undected for so long that the poison went into my lungs, and apparently I had pneumonia, but didn't even realize that until having found this site in desparation, and God's will, started oil pulling...it took two weeks for the mucous from my lungs to blow out of my nose a very dark green...I had never even blown dark yellow out before this OP experience, and have suffered with sinus infections all my life. Keep it up, and get rid of the poison...It took me almost 6 weeks, but for the first time in my life, I don't weeze, cough, almost smother to death in a lying down positon, and breath like I have a new set of lungs..I am 56 years old."
07/31/2010: Guestlisa from North Vancover, Bc, Canada replies: "I too had a yellow yolk like release after some ionic foot baths and liver cleansing. It was almost turmeric in colour and I will never forget it. OP is really great if one is ok with seeing and expelling toxic mucous as it frees. I have no problem with what my body produces, sounds, smells or other fluids... None at all. This stuff fascinates me."

[YEA] 08/24/2007: Kendra Rose from Haiku, Hawaii writes: "I have now been oil pulling for two months both morning and night. Twenty-eight years ago I was exposed to agent orange here in Hawaii from the pineapple fields. It had gotten into the water supply. I have been ill ever since, I especially suffered from migraines. To make things worse I have heavy metal poisoning that is off the charts.
Two friends put their grandmother's rosaries on me and prayed for me by my request... as I had been feeling so terrible.. kept telling my friends that my blood feels poisoned. That night I found EarthClinic and my prayer was answered. My life has been restored to me. Glory be to Buddha, Marys, Christ, angels and all the Saints! HO!
I have consistent energy. I no longer feel poisoned, my blood feels joyous! I am sleeping so deeply from the very first day I tried it. Now that I feel so good, I understand how deeply sick I've been all this time. My body feels so relieved not to start the day with a toxic overload. A new acquaintance of mine said that since she's known me she can't believe the quality of my skin...
I have tried for over 28 years many modalities, herbal medicines, prescription medicines.. nothing helped me.. I began to feel I was the only person on earth who could not heal... and I'm a healer... I am healing and everyday I am amazed, startled, surprised, delighted that I wake up feeling grrreat! Blessed Be!"

[YEA] 08/23/2007: Patricia from Montreal, Canada writes: "I am 22 and have membranous glomerulonephritis. I have had it for 6 years. I have been on TONS of different medication and nothing has worked. Recently I decided to go off all of my medication, since it wasn't working anyways I figured whats the point of me being on it then.I see a naturpath and homoepath and am very into natural health. My protien levels in my urine are the problem, I am now at around 3.mg protein a day in my urine. Over the past few years I have gotten better and better with other symptoms (water retention) and the oil pulling which I started about a month ago has really helped my energy.I am now able to work part time. A couple of years ago and I was taking 2 naps a day. It is just the darn protein!I had severe stress in my life before I got this, for sure this was the cause. Do you have any advice to get my protein in my urine down? Thanks! I love your website!"
