That is a download link for an actual paper
!0 subjects, no control group, no blinding, and barely reached statistical significance. Garbage study.And this article: Skip to the interview with Dr. Sanda Moldovan where she describes how oil pulling is not a magic cure all but does have benefits because of it's oral cleaning ability:
http://jezebel.com/the-oil-pulling-health-craze-works-just-not-in-the-w-1538252677
My point is, it is not this toxin pulling magic practice that cures ailments, but does have oral health benefits.
In the study they linked, the control group performed better than the oil-pulling group.
Not what I would call compelling.0 -
OMG, I still get the stomach churning, chills, and gag reflex when I come back to this thread, now 2 days later.
I think I will try the leeches instead to pull out my toxins.
For the record, TMI on swallowing. That makes me gag too, especially oil. I envision going into my kitchen, getting the oil out (granted it is not coconut oil), and taking and swishing it around for a bit (not 20 minutes though because then would have bits of food and bacteria in it) and then swallowing it. Yeah, no, not for me.
You don't swallow the oil. You spit it out, just like you would toothpaste or mouthwash.
Also, if the idea of swishing around coconut oil in your mouth makes you gag, you should check out the ingredient list of your favorite mouthwash. I'm sure the glycerin is equally appealing, given that it's not much different (it's a byproduct/coproduct of the acts of making soap and biodiesel, as a result of reacting fats/oils with a reactor agent), and we won't even get into the ingredients that aren't food-grade/safe to eat.

This is the strangest thread I've ever read on MFP and that's saying somethin'.0

Weigh oil before swishing. Spit out oil into a beaker and heat oil to remove any saliva weight. Weigh oil again and you will have the amount swallowed.
I think this would be a little silly to actually do but I also think oil pulling is silly.0 -
Haha! People are really getting a kick out of this I suppose. Coconut oil basically deep cleans, whitens and strengthens your teeth. And yes you can completely substitute it for toothpaste. Which is actually better for you. Did you know the same amount of fluoride is in 8 oz of water as is the same amount of fluoride in toothpaste that if swallowed you're supposed to call poison control?
I doubt people are double fisting toothpaste to the point that poison control needs to be called,0 -

Small children have ingested enough to be fatal. I don't think adults have done that, though. Solution: Keep toothpaste out of your toddler's reach.Haha!

I do the oil pulling every morning with coconut oil and I do not count calories. I refuse to take calorie counting that far. Spit, brush teeth and mouthwash and I am all set for the day. I would like to think that the swishing in the mouth for 15 minutes burns any or all calories that were or were not consumed. LOL0

It would appear to lack support of it's effectiveness unless you're comparing it to a lack of dental care entirely.

You talk about swallowing oil as if it is the next thing to death itself. Good, healthy saturated fat from virgin coconut oil is essential for both health and healthy weight. Virtually all obese people severely lack fat in their diet which makes them malnourished. But healthy fat bears no resemblance to the obese person's staple swill of refined, chemically altered and heat denatured canola oil which everyone is brainwashed to consider healthy. I have actually encountered people who swear it is healthy to eat Doritos because Pepsico says they contain whole grain corn.0 -

What evidence do you have that this is true?0 -
Coconut oil is comedogenic. If I do this, will I get zits on the inside of my mouth?0

Please tell me that you do know that Weston Price died some 40 years before the Internet was even in its infancy (and nearly a decade before the first of the Google founders was even born)...
No I don't. He's your guru, not mine. I don't care about him even a little bit.Also, your very own paper states this:Diet - caries can mostly be prevented by having a healthy diet
[7]. The traditional diet of many Indigenous people included a
lot of fibre and protein and was low in sugar. Traditional bush
foods generally required a lot chewing which increased the
amount saliva (spit) that was produced and helped keep teeth
clean [9]. By comparison, the modern diet of many Indigenous
people includes a lot of processed and sugary foods that
increase the risk of developing caries [7][9].
And this:Tooth brushing - tooth brushing with fluoridated toothpaste
everyday is essential for good oral health. Evidence suggests
that oral care was not necessary with a traditional Indigenous
diet, for reasons given above, and was not part of all Indigenous
cultures [7]. People who are less well off are less likely to brush
their teeth and floss everyday [7][11].
Falls right in line with what Price found -- indigenous people eating their traditional diet had better dental health and that the introduction of the Western diet greatly increased the incidence of dental issues.
Other early explorers (written about by Arnold de Vries in Primitive Man and his Food in 1952) found the same things in the native Australian population -- when eating their traditional diets, their teeth were healthy and strong (as was the rest of their body).
http://www.westonaprice.org/health-topics/australian-aborigines-living-off-the-fat-of-the-land/
You make a few assumptions, and overlook some things.
You skip over the part that says "Tooth brushing - tooth brushing with fluoridated toothpaste everyday is essential for good oral heal" to highlight the part saying that to emphasize that indigenous people didn't need to brush their teeth and got by without it. That's no doubt true, but it doesn't mean they had healthier teeth. It just means they got by without brushing. Of course they didn't, they're tribal people. But we do a lot of things they don't do, and I wouldn't recommend emulating tribal people at all. Personally I like the advances of modern society. I enjoy brushing my teeth daily and not having to run down and slaughter my own foods.
So I'm gonna stick with that plan. Brushing my teeth, buying food from grocery stores. But hey, I'm kind of crazy that way.
Some indigenous peoples made their own toothbrushes out of twigs where they pulled the individual fibers from the end of the twig apart so they had an actual toothbrush. True story.0 -
Oh, I hate to seem judgmental, but even the thought of this makes me gag. I'll use my toothbrush, thanks though. I'm literally getting little chill bumps thinking about it.
That is exactly what impedes progress and causes more obesity, gagging at the thought of something different. I suppose you gag at the thought of getting rid of your car too? When you sit strapped inside your tin box and light gasoline you give me chills just thinking about it and I, too, want to gag.
Yes. This is exactly what causes obesity. If only people would oil pull they would lose all the weight, have shiny teeth, and live forever. We would be a race of gods, with Herculean strength, and weaving poetry like Homer. Oh, why oh why, won't you all just believe!0 -

Billy, you crack me up! 70% of Americans obese due to Doritos?!? Excellent. Unlike johnnythan I do not play in the sandbox. You can play by yourself. I find you amusing to say the least. If you read about manufacturers and what they and why you'd learn why foods Like Doritos exist. Your numbers and your personal experiences are to say the least, interesting. Best of luck on your fitness and weight loss goals.0
