Who uses this folk remedy? :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pulling

I started like two weeks ago, following the advice of mother's workmate who does. Does it work for you?

Now I occasional have a spoonful of Hemp oil.

When I recently heard of this Oil Pulling, I thought, two birds with one stone, so I do the oil pulling bit, and then swallow the Hemp oil as I would have done anyway.

I certainly wont be spitting that down the drain, why the spitting out part anyway?

If you don't spit this out, the toxines that just came out, are coming back into your body so that's like you didn't do that oil pulling thing at all. Or even worse - you may get ill. My dentist's helper is VERY interested in that recently, too - I infected her with this idea, she was very curious today as for some details of doing this, so I willingly shared my knowledge with her :)

But I cannot see how this is any different to chewing your food and swallowing it?, surely those same "toxins" would get into the food you eat?

Or is oil pulling some magic mystery thing were the oil is like some super magnet that draws all your bodies toxins up through your teeth to be spat down the drain in the oil?
