Can You Oil-Pull Only In The Morning? What About After Eating?


Answers to two of the most common questions regarding oil-pulling:

I discuss natural remedies a lot, and one topic I’ve gotten a lot of emails on is oil-pulling. Most of us have either read Dr Weston A. Price’s work or the book Teeth Total by Dr Judd or something else, and were left with some questions about the instructions regarding oil-pulling. I always answer you guys’ emails, but I thought I’d also give a brief couple of common questions some answering here on my blog.

  Why is it recommended to Oil-Pull first Thing in the AM?

People tend to think if that since it’s recommended to oil-pull right when you wake up, that if you forget, it’s useless and won’t “work” unless you do it first thing in the morning. This isn’t true. Oil-pulling always works, no matter what time of day it is or whether you’ve eaten.

The reason it’s recommended to pull in the morning is simply because it’s easier to remember. If you do it any other time of the day, you’ll still get results. Promise. I oil-pull  when I first wake up some days. Other days I do it before bed, and other times in the middle of the day. 

  Why is it Recommended to Oil-Pull on an empty stomach?

Again, this recommendation leads most people to believe pulling will only “work” if you do it on an empty stomach. I used to think the same thing, but it’s recommended because when you first begin oil-pulling, some people experience nausea, so that’s why doing it on an empty stomach is recommended. 

Doing it right after eating or on an empty stomach will not change the results.                    
 

I hope that clears up some confusion in the oil-pulling world. If you guys have any questions about it or about my own results, or about what types of oils are best, leave them in the comments section or get in touch with me via email. I always respond and am happy to answer questions.

And, please leave me your own oil-pulling experiences/results in the comments section! I love to hear from you guys.

Happy pullin',
