Oil pulling – a safer way to great oral health

What goes on in your mouth affects the rest of your body.

The mouth, like the gut, is a reservoir of bacteria.

Bad bacteria can spread to the rest of the body.

We now know that bad bacteria in the mouth can lead to dementia and cardiovascular disease.

But oral hygiene can be tricky…

There are a few effective chemical mouthwashes like chlorhexidine — but chlorhexidine is not an entirely safe substance.

So it’s very important to identify effective, alternative methods of keeping the mouth healthy.

One solution is oil pulling — rinsing oil around in the mouth for a few minutes every day.

It’s an old practice from Indian Ayurvedic Medicine which is now increasingly supported by science.

This review was carried out by researchers at the University of Oxford in the UK. The paper was published by Complementary Therapies in Medicine.

This study consisted of analyzing previous high quality research on the topic. 

The authors searched through online medical databases to collect all of the up-to-date evidence.

“We set out to critically appraise and evaluate the evidence from randomized clinical trials examining the effectiveness of oil pulling on oral dental hygiene.”

The effectiveness of oil pulling was assessed by numerous standard tests. 

“Our primary outcomes were measures of oro dental hygiene using validated scales.”

These included assessments of plaque, gingivitis, toxins produced by bacteria in the mouth, and tests for particularly harmful oral bacteria.

The researchers found 26 studies of sufficient quality for analysis.

Five of these studies were gold-standard, randomized controlled trials.

The trials compared oil pulling against chlorhexidine, or standard oral hygiene (flossing and brushing), or in some cases inactive placebo.

Overall, the researchers found that oil pulling does seem to be effective in improving oral health. 

The evidence so far indicates that oil pulling may be as good as chlorhexidine mouthwash — but not as harmful.

“The limited evidence to date from clinical trials suggests that oil pulling may have beneficial effects on oro dental hygiene as seen for the short period of time investigated.”

Oil pulling consists of swishing about a teaspoon of oil around in your mouth for about 10 minutes. 

Coconut oil is best — and it’s best to do it after brushing your teeth.

There are numerous effects from oil pulling — but the most basic seems to be saponification

In short, it acts like a soap, removing oily substances which can feed bacteria but are not addressed by standard oral health procedures.

Oil pulling is a lot cheaper than visiting a dental specialist to deal with the problem later.

“Given that this is a potentially cost-effective intervention, this practice might be of particular benefit.”

The researchers believe that the existing evidence is promising and that more high-quality studies should be conducted into the effects of oil pulling on oral health.

Oral health diminishes with age — and many older people suffer with periodontitis.

“Periodontitis is the most common chronic inflammatory disease in humans, affecting 60% of people over 65 years old.”

But it’s not just disintegrating teeth and bad breath that is on the cards here. 

The bacteria which cause periodontitis have a clear causal role in other major chronic diseases — real killers.

“Research has suggested that periodontitis may be an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease and cerebrovascular disease – in particular, non-hemorrhagic stroke.”

When these bad bacteria leave the mouth and enter the rest of the body they generate an inflammatory response — the body is trying to kill an infection. 

But chronically elevated inflammation causes damage all throughout the body.

Another one of the basic responses to these bacteria is atherosclerosis.

“Periodontal bacteria enter circulation and disseminate to vascular endothelium generating a pro-atherogenic reaction.”

Those bacteria can lead to clogged blood vessels.

Oral health is reflective of all and oil pulling could turn out to be a safe alternative to expensive or harmful standard treatments.

Try it out. It certainly feels good.

For men who want to avoid clogged blood vessels in the penis — use this toothbrush trick

Men can get plaque blocking up the arteries anywhere in the body, even in the penis.

Doctors call it penile fibrosis and it stops oxygen-rich blood from getting to your member.

Some men will know they have this fibrosis because of a knot or bend in their penis.

But most men don’t have a bend or knot — and they still have penile fibrosis!

Fortunately, I’ve found a super easy way to get rid of this fibrosis and free up the blood vessels again.

It’s a simple toothbrush trick any man can use and it greatly improves male blood flow.
