Re: Oil Pulling Sucks!

Yeah, yeah, sure, sure. Still I should have bothered to notice who the poster was before going off. MissCast is such a great contributor. It was just that something similar was directed at me lately. "You're new here so you couldn't possibly be worthy of having a different opinion than the luminous Mr X". But bad moods are understandable - especially these days.

But query me this great sage - If, as you believe, oil pulling doesn't draw anything from the body, what's in your mouth at the end of your pull should be just oil and saliva - right? So how does that become so toxic after being swished around for 20 minutes that special precautions have to be made to dispose of it, care has to be taken to rinse all traces out of your mouth, and swallowing it can be hazardous to your health? There must be something else in the mix, no?
