I’ve recently read how traditional cultures used different oils to clean their mouth instead of toothpaste. I usually brush my teeth with tea tree oil and water but I do want to learn more about oil brushing (gurgling). Apparently according to Dr. Bruce Fife in his book Oil Pulling Therapy, swishing certain oils such as coconut oil in your mouth for several minutes, will pull toxins and bacteria out of your teeth, eliminate bad breath, and bleeding gums and treat cavities. Most Virgin oils contain anti-bacteria and anti-viral agents that can seep into small spaces.
He is right when he says that disease starts in your mouth! At 14 I had a root canal and by 19 the tooth was harboring painful infection. I read Root Canal Cover Up by George Meinig, and learned that Root Canals are pretty much pure evil and allow for further infection and disease in the mouth. The bacteria under a cap, filling or tooth can flourish from the oxygen in your blood steam as well as travel to every single organ, particularly reproductive organs. As soon as it was pulled, literally the second they pulled it out, I felt so relieved and the next month I finally got pregnant after a year of trying. Anyways, I have always had tooth problems as well as terrible nutrient absorption from years of eating improperly prepared grains. The gluten lined my gut, preventing nutrients to enter the villi, creating a poor immune system resulting in TOOTH DECAY! Read any of Weston A. Price’s work and you will soon realize that untouched traditional cultures had perfect teeth (meaning they were healthy!) until processed foods were introduced to their society.
I will start oil pulling asap and report back as to how my mouth compares. Try it yourself and get ride of your toothpaste bottle. Baking soda works great to whiten, a drop of tea tree oil on your brush leaves your breath fresh and now oil swishing will put your mind at ease regarding bacteria.
