Oil Pulling - Results and Questions

I was checking out the wesbites for benefits of ACV, when I came across the wording "Oil Pulling"...what?!?!?! So, I looked THAT up and found your wonderful website...thanks!
After reading all the testimonials, I rushed right out and bought cold-pressed Extra-Virgin Olive-Oil (read where this gives the most dramatic results!) I tried it the first time. I could not keep it in for the full 15-20 min as suggested - BUT - I must had done it long enough to see the results of healing, which were severe soreness - almost boils - in the roof of my mouth (too acidic...concentration of toxins.) So, I tried another session and as I was spitting it out, I immediately coughed up a medium sized, dark green, mucousy "thing" from deep down in my lungs. I have not been sick or had infection for over two years, so it was something that was very old. I felt weird, but I knew that, not only, this was the body healing (herx?), but that this stuff really works! The good thing: My teeth did feel different and I actually lost the chronic abdominal "I am due any time with twins" bloat I keep...so much so, that it looked like I had lost about ten pounds. The bad thing: that I looked terrible! I physically looked like I was toxic. When I showed up for work the next day, the first words out of my co-worker's mouth was, "What happened to YOU? You look like ______". So, of course, I stopped oil pulling immediately (LOL). Now, I am off a few days and starting back oil pulling this morning. I can already see immediate results! My teeth feel "clean" and my sinuses are clearing. I will stick with it this time and hopefully, de-tox on my days off.
************************************************************************************
I have two questions:
1.) What about the toothbrush you use after each oil pulling session...isn't it contaminated too? Should you use a separate toothbrush to brush after oil pulling vs. regular brushing??? I think this would be a good idea!
2.) I have read where people are using baking soda and AVC as rinses after oil pulling. I thought that both of these products would eat the enamel off of your teeth. Shouldn't they use caution and could this possibly be why some people are seeing great results of whiter teeth, as baking soda WILL make your teeth whiter...but it strips away the enamel as well. Am I wrong on this????
Any comments/suggestions??

This is a reply to # 916,911I have a PureBrush sterilizer, and I love it. I agree about the toothbrush, and your idea of having a separate one might be a good idea. I notice there is oil on my toothbrush after I brush, and I wonder how much oil it's getting out of my mouth if it's still on the brush! You're also right to consider taking the enamel off your teeth. A lot of people do things that end up hurting them in the long run, and I stopped using baking soda when I heard about the enamel myself, and I stopped using ACV near my teeth where possible. (I also had a dentist recommend brushing with baking soda and hydrogen peroxide, and I later read somewhere about how there may be some link with hydrogen peroxide and oral cancer...) Additionally, I've done lots of cleansing, and I read about how acidic fruit like lemons can eat up your teeth, so I use a straw when I drink my lemon cleansing drink sometimes. I also read recently that people who brush their teeth after eating acidic foods are actually scrubbing their teeth away maybe. (That I read in a raw book. That guy was recommending chewing greens in your mouth for something called "wadding" to help remineralize them...)- Re: Contaminated toothbrush molly bloom

MoreThis is a reply to # 917,593I also heard about chewing greens in your teeth. It's one of the reasons I started to grow wheatgrass in hopes of remineralizing my teeth.
Now I take IP6 and Zeta Water, and I think that is going to be my best bet for my enamel.

I've been using ACV/Baking Soda for about 2 months. Baking Soda brings the pH of ACV to about 7. Using ACV straight (without rinsing) is what causes the enamel to be eaten away.
I always back up m information by providing the source of it:

This is a reply to # 916,875I noticed my toothbrush had an off odor to it so I started rinsing it with hydrogen peroxide after I rinse it under the tap water. By the time I use it again, it has air-dried. Now my toothbrush looks and smells very clean. Also, after oil pulling, I rinse my mouth with warm salt water. If you do this, be sure to use Sea Salt to avoid the chemicals added to regular salt. This won't harm the enamel as the salt is dissolved in the warm water first. Here are two more links on how to oil pull:

This is a reply to # 916,875I have answers to your questions.
1.) What about the toothbrush you use after each oil pulling session...isn't it contaminated too? Should you use a separate toothbrush to brush after oil pulling vs. regular brushing??? I think this would be a good idea!
What I do and would recommend is that you use the Oral B "brush ups" that you put put on your index finger and brush. They are a one use disposable brushing device. The reason I recommend this is that if you are placing large amounts of bacteria on a toothbrush even if it is for a specific purpose, the bacteria will still continue to grow and you will be reinfecting your mouth.
I tend to sterilize my toothbrushes at least once a week by placing them in hot water or soaking them in listerine.
2.) I have read where people are using baking soda and AVC as rinses after oil pulling. I thought that both of these products would eat the enamel off of your teeth. Shouldn't they use caution and could this possibly be why some people are seeing great results of whiter teeth, as baking soda WILL make your teeth whiter...but it strips away the enamel as well. Am I wrong on this????
It will not strip away the enamel on your teeth. The baking soda will neutralize some of the properties of the vinegar, not the point where it is ineffective..just to the point where it doesn't damage your teeth.
After I oil pull sometimes I use a warm water, salt, and a cap full of hydrogen peroxide. It has done wonders. Hope this helps.
Best Wishes.

This is a reply to # 917,310I brush with straight baking soda but recently started to dip my brush in peroxide first and then in the baking soda. But then someone told me that you should never use peroxide undiluted in the mouth as it would eat enamel. Is this true?

I dip my brush in peroxide (it attracts the b.s. easier) and after I use the peroxide as a rinse, then rinse again with water. I have been doing this for several months now and do not have a problem with my teeth. They are whiter than ever and feel cleaner!

This is a reply to # 917,332I felt that my teeth were whiter too and enjoyed the process. But after visiting the dentist recently and having him tell me of all kinds of "problems" which I never knew I had, I wondered if the peroxide could be a contributing factor.

This is a reply to # 917,353Hi Sanctuary,
I read about your dentist visit. I am sorry you had to endure that, truly.
I felt from reading your post about your visit, that your dentist was not there for your best interest but his own. I, personally, (if I believed him) would get a second opinion and then take it from there. I would continue with what I was doing, including the peroxide, and find out what a dentist who did not need his overpriced lifestyle funded, would have to say.
Then, and only then, would I agree to stop the peroxide. After s/he gave me their thoughts about my teeth, would I offer that I have been using the peroxide and b.s. for my toothpaste.
I have no sensitivity or other problems, that are obvious to me. I have not seen a dentist in a few to several years, other than taking my son. I do not have dental insurance, his was covered by his dad's. I went for a while, twice a year. One would be for xrays, and the next one for a cleaning. I just stopped. Thank you God, I have not had any pains from my teeth, so I have chosen not to go back.
After reading many peoples plight for their dentist visits, I do not concern myself with not going. Whenever I went, I most often would get a good visit, other than 'small' problems. I think if I went now, there would be just this one cavity, which I know I have but no plague because I have not used any toothpaste in months.
I am considering getting my fillings out, yet it will not be soon. I have other obligations, in this moment, that need attention to. I think that will be my last visit to any type of dentist, when I get that done.
Here's wishing you well, Sanc.
Blessings and Peace,

so much conflicting info on peroxide, even in this thread. So hard to know what is the right thing to do.

I tend to switch out my toothbrush once a month-- if I had two toothbrushes, I'd probably switch back and forth anyways. That is an interesting point about the toxins on the toothbrush-- I keep a small spritzer of Colloidal Silver in the fridge and my toothbrush by the sink so I think I'll start spritzing my toothbrush with that.
Personally, I tend to pull more than once-- typically anywhere from 10-20 minutes each, and I expel it when it starts to get funky so I can pull up the mucus and expectorate it (great word, huh?) then i start swishing again. I do this with castor oil in the shower (EVCO or VCO with oregano oil when I'm feeling funky, and I just did a triple pull last night with Extra-Virgin Olive-Oil that I just bought-- better than I thought it'd be, a bit thin though.) So, with multiple pulls I think there's not as much toxic material being left on my toothbrush as I rinse, spit, rinse, drink water, and then brush (with soap.) A tip-- leave bottles around the house-- I have a bottle of castor oil in my shower, and I have the other two oils on my stove. Occasionally I'll bring a bottle of safflower oil out to my bed and keep it there for a few days.
Research brushing with soap. I thought ya'all were crazy who did this, but after a week or two I SERIOUSLY CONCRETELY noticed a difference in the plaque bumps on my teeth...as in, they weren't there anymore. now I notice plaque when I have to floss or I haven't been too diligent with all over brushing.
also-- if you get a supply of VCO, brush with that occasionally-- a really good experience, and one that I do about once a week but need to do more. Maybe the VCO also eats up any bugs left over from brushing?
