Hi Everyone,
As promised, I'm posting results of Hemp Oil as I test it out. Here's what I've got (and pardon the icky stuff):
Physical:
* Dental much improved! I'm impressed! I have two small cavities on either sides of my two front teeth. Those have diminished. I didn't have my camera this morning, but will take a pic tomorrow morning.
* Unknown substance from vaginal canal - like snot, light yellowish color. (?) Never seen it before, so I don't know what to make of it. Not uncomfortable, just strange when going to the bathroom.
* Increased gas in my system today.
* Overall feeling of "brightness" in the day - colors, sounds, tastes.
* Decreased neck aches today (a NICE, WELCOME addition to the day)
* Hands extra sensitive. The palms were very sensitive at the top of the palm, just below the beginning of fingers.
* Hands less dry today (Olive Oil made them very dry)
* Upon spitting the oil, I experienced a quick thickening of the saliva left in my mouth. When I spat it out, it was like thick and slimey like snot. (MAJOR YUCK) I spat that stuff out for a good 30 seconds after spitting the oil. Throughout the day today, I've experienced that same sudden thickening of saliva twice after eating (breakfast and lunch).
* Increased relaxation today. Nothing ruffles my feathers (and considering the snot stuff, that's a good thing).
About the Oil:
* Must keep refrigerated (sort of a pain).
* THICK and GREEN!! I thought for sure I was going to loose my oil (gag reflex) for the first two-three minutes. Then it seemed to warm up and was fine then.
* Tastes like grass (I felt a bit like a cow chewing it's cud, lol)
* Oil stayed green, but wasn't as dark after my swishing. Oil was not really thin, but not thick, either.
Emotional:
* Word of the day: Relaxation.
* Lower stress level, even with normal to high stress during the day.
Any others trying Hemp Oil? I think, for people who have a high stress life-style, this is a great oil. (I'm always stressed out and today people commented on how languid I've been today. Everything still gets done, but there's no internalizing of the nastiness throughout the day.

All of these things are different from the "regular" experiences of Olive Oil pulling, yes! I know - wow!
One, i have been pulling while on the raod during the day, as many as five times in a row. i have noticed brightness and calm while doing this. a great adjunct to driving.
The brightness is something new for me. The calm was a different quality. There's calm but ready to jump into action, then there's what I've been experiencing all day today. Calm, ready to think things through, then think about action - but no jumping!
Two, i had thought about cold oil before. a difference of over 50 degrees from body temp will draw toxins to it. this would jump start the pull for sure. Maybe you could let the oil warm up to room temp before using it to see if that is the difference.
Since Hemp Oil is supposed to be refrigerated until used, I think I'll pass on the warming up. Not to mention, I'd have to leave it out overnight, since I'm up at 5am to get ready for work. Might put a kink in things if I tell them I'm late to work so I could wait for my oil to warm up. ::grins::
Although, we should be able to tell some of these kinds of things with Coconut Oil, since it *can* be refrigerated and melts at 76 degrees. It doesn't take long to melt in your mouth. Of course, when Coconut Oil is cold, it's also a solid. Hemp is still liquid. Hmm.
Happy swishing!!

Yes, I agree. Does Sunflower or Seseme stay liquid if refrigerated? That might be a good test. We know what it does when swishing warm. Stick it in the frige over night and see what it does when it's cold...?
