On Friday mornings, we just expose; spilling the tea all over the place.

ONE. Oil Pulling

Have you heard of this holistic technique that people are attributing miraculous results to?

The practice of oil pulling has roots in ancient Ayurvedic medicine, a traditional system of healing that originated in India over 3,000 years ago. Where practitioners would swish sesame oil in their mouths to promote oral hygiene and overall whole-body health.

The concept gained modern popularity in the early 1990s when Dr. F. Karach, a Ukrainian physician, claimed that oil pulling with sunflower oil could cure various illnesses, including cancer and AIDS.

This led to increased interest in the practice, with enthusiasts advocating for its benefits in detoxifying the body and improving oral health.

Coconut oil specifically gained attention due to its antimicrobial properties, which are attributed to its high content of lauric acid. 

Advocates suggest that coconut oil pulling can help -

1. Significantly (naturally) whiten teeth

2. Reduce harmful bacteria in the mouth

3. Prevent cavities

4. Promote gum health

5. And, even re-verse already existing cavities or infections

Keep in mind, that there’s anecdotal evidence supporting the benefits of oil pulling, although scientific research on its effectiveness is limited and often inconclusive. 

Nonetheless, many people continue to practice oil pulling as part of their oral hygiene routine, alongside traditional methods like brushing and flossing, and are continuously claiming miracles. 

How to oil pull - 

Coconut oil pulling involves swishing room-temperature coconut oil around in your mouth for 5 to 15 minutes, typically first thing in the morning, and then spitting it out. 

Continue then with your regular regimen of brushing your teeth and flossing, as these are crucial for preserving optimal oral hygiene.

And, we will die on this hill -

Castor Oil

We have found that castor oil is fantastic for promoting hair growth, strengthening, and keeping the scalp moisturized.. Plus, its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties make it a go-to for soothing skin irritations and maintaining healthy, glowing skin with its detoxification remedies.

The discovery of using magnesium spray on the bottom of feet to better relax and obtain quality sleep has been remarkable, thanks to its ability to calm the nervous system.

Additionally, it relieves muscle tension and cramps, making it perfect for winding down after a long, active day.

Before use, apply castor oil, and over time, you'll witness your body undergo a transformation with this lymphatic drainage method. This wellness product helps to circulate blood and lymph throughout the body to promote detoxification.
