Oil Can!

Okay. This is gonna sound even stranger than tooth soap to you. But thousands swear by it, and my personal experience with it has been very positive. Best of all, no fancy books or exotic elixirs are required -- just a bottle of refined sesame or sunflower oil.

It's called "oil pulling therapy," and it's said to cure everything from migraines to meningitis.

Here's how oil pulling works: Upon arising, before eating or drinking, put a tablespoon of refined sesame or sunflower oil in your mouth, but don't swallow. Simply swish it around in there for 15 or 20 minutes, making sure to pull it through your teeth as you do so. When you're done, spit it out and clean your mouth carefully, 'cause the oil is now loaded with toxins that have been removed from your system.

That's pretty much it. Do it every morning, and you may see all kinds of nice results. Among ailments said to be treatable by oil pulling: all sorts of pain, asthma, eczema, constipation, arthritis, heart disease, diabetes and a bunch more.

Oh, one more thing: In addition to the many who endorse it, there are people on the web who claim that oil pulling can't work -- but these same folks also admit they haven't tried it. It's worth remembering here that there are also people who say the bumblebee shouldn't be capable of flight. Some stuff is kinda hard to explain, but that doesn't mean it's not real.
