Have I ever heard of oil pulling? Let's just say I'm a vibrant and virile male, living alone for the past two years....

Wonder if it would cure hemorrhoids, and where you put the oil to make that work?
Maybe it would work for hemorrhoids. Although the mixing with saliva and the requisite swishing could be problematic. As to the spitting...
Included in the list of cured diseases - "Piles-27 cases ".
It doesn't mention anything regarding treatment protocol - where the oil goes - but I wondered the same thing. My interest was triggered when I saw the term "piles". I can't recall that term ever being used in a "medical" context. In fact I can't recall that term used in any context for at least a couple of decades. I think that might say something about their target audience.

Goofy: "Wonder if it would cure hemorrhoids, and where you put the oil to make that work?"
I'm not sure about the answer to that but as follow-up, Rocker pointed out in his opening post:
"Just use normal tap water and good old fingers to clean."
Mike: Congrats on making the connection with hemmies and piles. I missed it - must be an age thing :) I bet you know what a carbunkle is too?
Actually on piles, my grandfather used to take an overweight pediatrician fishing with us in a Boston Whaler - a boat known to go over waves rather than through. On every big bounce Ol' Doc Joe would say "Ooooooch.... That was a real pile driver...."
Funny portann :)
FLdude - I think they call that feltching in Florida.
I just spray some wd40 on my dental floss and the dental floss glides through my teeth. Heard wd40 works for hemroids too. Not sure if it works on piles bit isn't wd40 kind of like duct tape? good for what ails ya' . ;-)
