Oil Pulling

As there is no industry or lucrative sales connected to "oil pulling" and as I cannot see anybody making big dollars from this simple health remedy, apart from sounding sensible and simple, I decided to try it. The theory is that our body expels toxins through the surface of our tongue (think of all the diagnoses in TCM that the tongue provides), which is most noticeable in the mornings after waking. Oil pulling is part of ancient Ayurvedic medicine and is known as Kavala Graham. The tongue seems easily coated with a white film (and in the case of some illnesses with a yellow coat), which can also be accompanied by a bitter taste and bad breath. This theory was not difficult to verify.

The oil pulling theory is that by taking a tablespoon full of organic sesame or organic sunflower oil right after getting up in the morning on an empty stomach (before even brushing your teeth) and swishing it around in your mouth for about 15 minutes before spitting it out (definitely not swallowing it!), the oil assimilates and removes many of the toxins from your tongue.

To your health!

Testimonial:

Merrie conveys information with anecdotes, stories, examples and a few sarcastic jokes here and there. My LBA was a lively experience. She is compassionate and patient.
She was completely open and nonjudgmental as to my past poor lifestyle choices. My long standing deficiencies on my vegan diet were laid out in front me – no guessing – nothing vague – just clear information. I recommend this to anyone who has been ill; anyone who has made severe diet changes; anyone who has been on serious meds for a long time.
