OIL PULLING

Thinking cars are a good thing is similar to believing that margarine is healthier than butter. Both ideas are delusions.
That is exactly what impedes progress and causes more obesity, gagging at the thought of something different. I suppose you think margarine is healthy, too?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.

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!

I'm pretty sure that sitting in a tin box and lighting gasoline would make you lose more weight than any diet known to mankind. Of course, it would get a tad hot and while I love crispy skin on chicken, I prefer to avoid it myself.
What does margarine have to do with sitting in a tin box and lighting gasoline? Do I rub the margarine on the skin first?
Oh, now I get you. Yea, total delusions, just like the moon landing. I tell you, the conspiracies in this country are alive and well. I'm personally stockpiling food and water in an underground bunker to cover for the time when Big Auto goes into overdrive, Big Pharma gets stoned, and Big Margarine finally butters my bread.0 -
" I will say, color, texture, the perfect balance of fat and carb makes Doritos the ideal snack." HERE IT IS FOLKS, and you wonder why 70% of Americans are obese?
Oh Billy...

Great, now I want an artificial, chemical laden orange beverage, and I haven't had one in YEARS.0 -
He's right .. Coconut oil is very good for you in so many ways..I take coconut oil gel caps and on the bottle it reads 50 calories but I don't count it ..
Great info, but waaaaay off topic there. Not everyone here has a weight problem. Maybe you weren't aware. To answer OP's question, if you're spitting it out, you shouldn't be absorbing many calories.
Any coconut oil you swallow is good for you and calories should not be an issue. I have been pulling nearly a year and I purposely swallow a bit while it is still fresh because it is so healthy. Not all calories are alike; some are so good for you that you don't want to miss them.

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.

A member up above said that he swallows some of it.
He does it when he first puts it in his mouth, not after the 20 minutes are up.
He is still swallowing oil. I guess we all do if we eat fried something, but....
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.
hey billy! I swallow too!!

Coconut oil is comedogenic. If I do this, will I get zits on the inside of my mouth?
LOL. I cannot believe this thread is still going on and yep, I still gag when I think about it. Trying to stay out of this thread though because some people do this and to each their own.0 -
Was actually telling the hubby about this yesterday and he bought up how people drink castor oil. I don't know, but this seems completely different to me and I don't drink castor oil.0

Wow, I am going to quit counting calories and just oil pull. I just knew there was an easier way.0 -
I do it every morning, I do not super high expectations but it really makes my teeth feel clean. I then rinse with salt water, brush my teeth, and rinse with salt water. No I do not count it as calories.
Well, at least you brush afterward. I am okay with your oil pulling, seems to work for you, and you don't only do that for oral hygiene.
I think my problem is holding said oil in my mouth for 20 minutes, that makes me gag, sorry, i don't know why, it gives me those butterflies thinking about it that i get when i see a cut on one of my kids. I can look at puke, diarrhea, anything, but cuts make me sick.0 -

And, I don't hold mouthwash in my mouth for 20 minutes, maybe a minute swishing it around, then I spit it all out.0 -

Of the tragic, avoidable deaths across the country, one cause stands out well beyond all others.
Some advocates call it America's great, unnoticed public health menace, and it can hit any household in any neighborhood, inner city or suburban, rich or poor, black or white. It is the leading cause of deaths among Americans ages 1 to 34, and is the leading cause of long-term disability for all.
Many Americans fear becoming a victim of crime, but statistics show we are far more likely to be seriously injured or killed in a vehicle accident than to be harmed at the hands of criminal attackers.
And yet today and tomorrow and the next day, parents will subject themselves and their children to its danger with little concern.
"People don't generally think of driving as a risky task,"says Russ Rader, of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. "They think that crashes happen to other people, not themselves. There is a researcher who calls it the illusory zone of immunity — when we do things day after day that are routine, we don't think of them as being particularly dangerous.
"But of course the statistics show that getting behind the wheel of a car is probably the riskiest thing any of us do on any given day."
Nationwide, an average of more than 41,000 have died in accidents each year over the past decade.
And yet, the deadly consequences of car crashes rarely lead TV newscasts or make it onto the front of the local news section of newspapers.
As the blogger Matthew Yglesias pointed out after a commuter train accident in Washington killed seven people and made national news: "One story you're not going to see leading tomorrow's newspaper is '97 dead in fatal car accidents.' "
That, the blogger computed, was the number of people killed every day on America's roads, although the Institute for Transportation Engineers estimates 120 people die every day from what it calls "vehicle-related crashes."That's like having four major airline disasters happen every week, the institute points out.
At the AAA Foundation Web site, chief executive officer Peter Kissinger repeatedly calls the epidemic of vehicle-related accidents a "public health crisis."
One Kissinger quote from a 2007 press release is typical of the message AAA is trying to spread: "Someone dies in a highway crash every 13 minutes. Where is the outrage? Why does our society accept so many deaths at the price of mobility? Traffic crashes are the leading cause of death for Americans from ages 1 to 34, and they affect countless friends and family members whenever they occur. Yet, motorists, citizens, key stakeholders and our society in general, are complacent to these ongoing tragedies."0 -
Today's word is "plagiarism". Can you say "plagiarism"? I bet you can.
And why did you omit the conclusion of the article?Advocates stress that while some fatal accidents are tragically unavoidable, there are factors that can increase or reduce risk.
Memphis personal-injury lawyer James Ferrell offers five tips:
— Pay attention: Eliminate distractions so that you are more aware of surroundings.
— Don't speed: Decreases in reaction time combined with increases in energy released on impact make each mile above the speed limit ever more dangerous.
— Wear your seatbelt.
— Communicate while you drive: Use signals, make gradual lane transitions, take your time to brake, give yourself plenty of driving room.
— Keep space and pace: Tailgaters aren't just annoying, they're dangerous. Create predictability with consistent speeds. Give mergers plenty of space.0 -
I spent the first half of this thread wondering if I was accidentally ... um, intoxicated.
I spent the second half wondering if I should be intentionally intoxicated.
My brain is sad now.0 -

I was just trying to make a point that there will never be a cure for obesity in America because Americans will risk death to avoid any movement which, in itself is a major cause of obesity.0 -
