Oil Pulling

How To Oil Pull

1) Brush your teeth with water to remove food particles! Don't use toothpaste!
2) Have an empty stomach, best to do first thing in morning. If not, do it at least 2 hours after your last meal or drink.
3) Pour 1-2 tablespoon of sunflower oil, sesame seed  oil, of my personal favorite coconut oil into your mouth.
4) Swish the oil around in your mouth and through your teeth for 20 minutes.
5) Spit the oil out in the trash as the oil will solidify and clog your pipes. Rinse your mouth out with warm salt water 5 or more times.
6) Brush your teeth with a pure soap or baking soda! Do NOT use toothpaste!!

How does Oil Pulling work?

Oil Pulling works because the oil penetrates between the teeth and all the crevices in the mouth, it attaches to bacteria in your mouth over the 20 minute period. When you spit and wash your mouth, the bacteria that normally would have infiltrated your bloodstream is gone.

Possible Side Effects

It is a detox, so people seem to experience the following between the 2 and 7 day mark of oil pulling:

1) Sinus drainage, runny nose, sore throat
2) Trouble waking up in the morning from a deep sleep
3) Acne
4) Fever

Oil pulling should be done until side effects cease! You can do it longer but take at least a 1 week break after 4 weeks! If you don't take a break from oil pulling you will start to take away the good bacteria, vitamins, and more! Which could cause other problems like sensitive teeth! If you have sensitive teeth prior to starting oil pulling it may get worst temporarily as a side effect! 

Health issues oil pulling has been known to aid with and in some cases cure (based on individual accounts):

· Acne- It may get worse temporarily, which means your body is responding to the process.

· Arterio Thrombosis

· Arthritis- Noticed I don't have nearly as much pain as before and only oil pull every other day!

· Bad Breath- Works just as well or better than any toothpaste.

· Bleeding Gums- My gums have stopped bleeding.

· Bronchitis

· Candida Overgrowth

· Chronic / Acute Sinusitis (Sinus Infections)

· Chronic Blood Disorders Such As Leukemia

· Chronic Diseases Digestive Problems

· Constipation

· Crohns Disease

· Diabetes

· Eczema

· Gingivitis / Gum Disease

· Heart Disease

· Insomnia

· Irritable Bowel Syndrome (Ibs)

· Kidney Disease

· Migraine Headaches

· Neuro Physiological Paralysis

· Post Nasal Drip

· Skin Conditions

· Tooth Decay

· Ulcers

· Whitens Teeth- I have noticed a difference already!

· White Tongue

· Women’s Diseases

In most cases, if you have some ailments, the symptoms of your disease would get worse after you have performed oil pulling for some time. Do not be alarmed by the worsening of the symptoms of your disease since this is an indication that your body is responding to the oil pulling treatment.

The best oil is Tropical Traditions Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil!

Honey For Acne

Happy Acne Awareness month! Add me on google+(see link on the side), follow me on Twitter @ MzTisa05 and subscribe to the blog! I will sharing lots of tips, tricks, ways, & method to keep your complexion clear, acne free, and beautiful!

Let me no in the comment section what you have tried! Ask any questions you have and I will do my best to answer them!

DON'T use honey if you are allergic to bees or pollen!

I have mention the use of honey for acne in a early post! If you haven't read it click here ~~> Easy Ways To Get Rid Of Acne  Well now I'm going to elaborate a more on how to do it, which type of products to use, and the effects it has on your skin.

How To Use Honey To Get Rid Of Acne
Honey alone will only help treat your current breakout by soothing and healing it. You have to use an organic apple cider vinegar rinse with it! See which vrand to use below.
Wash your hands and clean your face. Nuke the honey in the microwave for a few seconds and using your hands massage it in a  circular  motion over your face for 30 seconds to a minute and then smooth over your entire face! Leave as long as you choose but no less than 15 minutes!
Mix a solution of vinegar and water at a ratio of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, etc! What ration of vinegar to water you choose depends on your skin! If you have very sensitive skin you should  want to start with 1 parts vinegar to 8 parts water and if theres no irratation you can slowly work your way up! If you have normal I recommend you start with 1 part vinegar to 6 parts water! It's up to you. Just be sure to test an area behind the ear first!
Rinse off the honey with the soloution and leave the vinegar mix on your skin don't rinse it with water or dry your face! Leave it on for 15 minutes to 1 hour and rinse with water. Pat face dry and apply a moisturizer. Do this once a day for at least a week. Then in addition to the honey mask and vinegar rinse you can increase to twice a day. After a month you can apply the vinegar alone upto 2 times a day if you have oily or nornal skin. No more then once a day for dry skin. Just make sure you rinse off before going in the sunlight. You should see noticable results after 2 weeks!

Which Products To Use
As far as honey goes you can use any brand of raw honey. Dr. Mercolas is the best. You can also use Manuka honey which is said to be the best. I believe Dr. Mercola sells Manuka honey as well! The type really matters in this case. Your regular grocery store honey isn't going to work! Most are just honey flavored!
As far as  apple cider vinegar any organic brand unfiltered brand will work but I HIGHLY recommend using Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar!  It is a little more expensive but worth it! The cheapest place I've found is The Vitamin Shopp The 16 oz is currently on sale for $2.67.

Warnings**
1. If your skin is sensitive use more water like 8 parts water to 1 part vinegar. Slowly decrease the water amount until you find a balance your skin loves!
2. Stay out of the sunlight with vinegar on your skin! It sill make dark marks and scars darker.
3. Don't use honey if you are allergic to bees or pollen!!!
4 Always spot test your skin and wait 24 hours before trying anything new to see how your skin will take it! Behind the ear is good place!
5.Your acne may get worse before it gets better as the vinegar pulls the toxins from your skin! This is normal it won't last long. Try some of my remedies in the other post mentioned above! The lenon juice or tomatoe remedy may help!

10 Ways To Get Rid Of Acne

Wash your face twice a day everyday with a mild cleanser! Once in the morning and once before bed!

4.Garlic: Garlic is a quick way to remove acne! Just cut a fresh clove of garlic and rub it on your acne!

5.Apply Toothpaste To Your Pimples: Only use white paste toothpaste not the gel! Crest. Toothpaste works best! Dab on each pimple and leave on overnight. Wash off the next morning! If you have sensitive skin leave on no more than 2-3 hours or as long as your skin can take.

6.Apply Mint Juice: Apply fresh mint juice to your face every night.

7.Unclog Pores With Salicylic: Clog pores lead to acne. Use simultaneously with sunscreen.

8.Use Tea Tree Oil Extract: Use this oil  in exchange of  benzoyle peroxide! Apply to the skin in small amounts. Mix equal parts of tea tree oil extract and water and use a Q-Tip to dab pimples with the mixture. Use in small quantities Stay away from tea tree oil if you have very sensitive skin or you have eczema in addition to acne.

9.Salt Water Paste: Take a little table salt and crush it up finely using the back of a spoon, then add a few drops of water,and mix until a paste forms. Wash and dry your face then apply to your blemish or pimple. Leave on overnight or a couple hours if your skin is sensitive! Then wash of the next morning!

10.Blistex: Use the blistex in the tube although the ointment kind will work just not as well! Wash and dry your face and apply to acne and leave overnight and wash off the next morning.

11.Crystallized Deodorant: Wash and dry your face. Apply the deodorant to your face. Leave on overnight, and wash off the next morning. You should be able to find this at Walmart, dollar store, etc
along with the other deodorants!

 12. Fresh Lemon Juice: Fresh lemon juice is great for your skin! It will get rid of pimples, blackheads, freckles, age spots, scars, and more! It also is good for your skin. It will soften it and give you a brighter healthier complexion! If your skin is sensitive dilute it with water! I recommend 1 parts water to 2 parts lemon juice! It will sting a little the first 2-3 times you use it which is normal! If it irritates your skin a lot and or causes redness then your skin is too sensitive for it and you should dilute it with water! Wash and dry the area you will be applying it. Then rub the fresh lemon juice all over your face or where ever needed before bed and leave it on overnight. The next morning rinse with cool water! Warning: Stay out of the sun for at least 4-5 hours after applying it!

13. Filtered Water: Our skin needs lots of water to keep it plump, flush out toxins, and build new skin cells! You should drink at least ten 8 ounce glasses of filtered water everyday! When you provide your skin with the quantity and quality of water it needs you will reveal healthier, fresher, more supple skin!

14.Honey:Use a natural honey!. Remove lid and microwave 10-15 seconds until warm!  Cleanse your face and hands. Using your hands spread the honey over your skin and massage it in using a circular upwards motion! Leave on as long as you want. I recommend 1 hour or more! Rinse off in a mixture of equal parts water and apple cider vinegar! Once honey is rinsed off rinse once more and let set 5 minutes to 1 hour and rinse. Stay out of the sun with the vinegar mixture on your skin! Your skin will be soft and supple and it will get rid of your acne over time as well as scars and dark spots! Can be used daily. Try the honey below.

15.Brag Organic Apple Cider Vinegar: You can purchase this at health food stores, Kroger's, and I believe Walmart has it! Mix equal parts water and vinegar and apply to you face! Leave on an hour or more and rinse off! You can do this 2-4 times a day. no more than twice if your skin is dry. Stay out of sunlight while it is on your skin! If you have to leave in the middle of a treatment just wash it off before going outside!

Tips

1. Always moisturize with a  non pore clogging lotion. It will say it on the bottle
2. Stay out of the sunlight when you have lemon juice or vinegar on your skin.
3. Exfoliate your skin 3-4 times a week! Use baking soda, sugar, or brown sugar and mix with water to form a grainy paste and rub skin in a circular upward motion then rinse.
4. Remember this are all natural ways so they will tke sometime to see results but there re no side effects and it is much cheaper!.
