椰子油---油泼疗法 可以改善牙齿健康

 感恩一切yelns5 2019-02-06

我非常喜欢从大家在我网站上的留言学习新的东西。大约2周前我写了一篇关于椰子油的文章--有很多健康益处的神奇热带油。很多人评论说,他们用椰子油做漱口水,称为椰子油油泼法。很明显,已经有很多研究支持这一用法,也有很多人正在这么用。不仅可以使牙齿洁白,口气清新,还有很多其他改善口腔健康的益处。我已经这么做10天了,真的是太神奇了!


什么是油泼法?怎么做呢?

油泼法,用油漱口,在印度传统医学治疗上已经用了上千年了。油泼法,是每次含一大汤匙的油在嘴里,然后漱口,每次大约15-20分钟。这么做,主要的好处是想减少口腔内大量的有害细菌。

实际上,口腔内有上千种不同种类的细菌。其中一些是有益细菌,另外一些却不是。嘴里的细菌可以在牙齿上形成一道“生物薄膜”-贴近牙齿的一层薄膜。我们所谓的“牙菌斑”。牙齿上有牙菌斑是很正常的,但是一旦不控制好,就会导致很多问题,包括口臭,黄齿,牙周炎,牙龈炎和蛀牙。

油泼法是非常简单的。当你用油漱口的时候,细菌会“粘附”在油中,并溶解在液体油中。基本上,你每做一次油泼法,都可以去掉口腔内大量的细菌和牙斑。

我个人比较偏爱椰子油

印度人传统上选择其他油类如芝麻油或葵花籽油。油泼法可以使用大部分油类,但我个人比较喜欢椰子油,因为它有很多健康好处,推荐使用特级有机冷榨椰子油。

月桂酸(椰子油中的一种脂肪酸)被证实是一种抗菌剂,有杀细菌、病毒和真菌的功效。椰子油的味道相比其他油类也更容易入口。最初我嘴里含满油,是感觉非常恶心的,但几天之后就慢慢适应了。现在,就让我们来看看关于油泼法的一些研究吧!


油泼法可以减少口腔内的有害细菌

变形链球菌是口腔内最主要的细菌之一,是牙菌斑和蛀牙形成的主要原因。2008年,一项针对20位男孩的研究发现,油泼法(使用的芝麻油)使牙菌斑内的变形链球菌至少2周时间内,数量大大减少。虽然它不如漱口水那么有效,但更便宜和更易入口。

油泼法可以减轻牙菌斑和牙龈炎

牙龈炎是由于牙龈发炎导致的,是免疫系统在攻击细菌的时候出现的。另外一项是使用油泼法和漱口水对青少年菌斑性牙龈炎治疗的对比研究试验,发现这种了疗法对牙龈炎都是非常有效的。

油泼法可以减轻口臭

口臭,大部分情况下是由于嘴里的细菌产生的化合物和气体的气味导致的。

所以,如果去掉这些细菌,就可以减轻口臭。在20位青少年的第三项研究中发现,油泼疗法非常明显地减轻口臭,并且和漱口水具有相同的效果。

什么是油泼疗法呢?

油泼疗法是非常简单有效的。做法如下:

1.放一汤匙油放嘴里;

2.漱口,大约15-20分钟;

3.吐掉油,然后刷牙;

如果你像我一样使用椰子油,那么你可以咀嚼一分钟让它融化。因为它在室温下是固体的。最好是空腹,刷牙前做。我比较喜欢在早上洗澡的时候做。我把油放入嘴里,洗澡的同时“推”“拉”我牙齿间的油。当我洗完澡的时候,把嘴里的油吐到垃圾桶或厕所里(但不要吐到水槽里,会堵塞的),然后再用清水漱口和刷牙。不需要太用力,如果油泼法使你面部肌肉疼痛,那就停下休息一会。那下次就尝试少含一点油,不要太用力漱口。


期待会发生什么呢?

现在我已经做了10天了。我明显地感觉我口气清新了,牙齿也看起来更干净,更洁白闪亮。我从没有任何的牙齿问题,但我已经明白了做油泼法的好处。

当然也有一些关于油泼法的恶评,但我都不相信它们。

事实上,油泼法对减少口腔细菌是非常有效的,还可以改善口腔和牙齿健康。

只要是炎症就会导致很多健康问题的,这样就是为什么减轻牙龈炎可以从整体上改善身体健康。或许,这也就是为什么很多人报道说健康问题的改善实际上跟牙齿没什么关系。不管怎样,我想说的是,我非常惊奇于油泼法的疗效。我打算长时间坚持做下去。

Oil Pulling With Coconut Oil Can Transform Your Dental Health

I love it when I learn new things from the comments people leave on my site.

About two weeks ago, I wrote an article about coconut oil – an awesome tropical oil with many health benefits.

A few people commented that they use coconut oil for something called Oil Pulling – which is kind of like using an oil as mouthwash.

Apparently, there are quite a few studies that support this process and a lot of people swear by it.

It is claimed to whiten your teeth, make your breath fresher and lead to massive improvements in oral health.

I have now been doing this every morning for about 10 days… and I am impressed.

What is Oil Pulling and How Does it Work?

Oil pulling involves swishing oil around the mouth and has been used for thousands of years as an Indian folk remedy.

In order to oil pull, you put a tablespoon of oil in your mouth, then swish it around for 15-20 minutes.

The main benefit of doing this, is that it reduces the amount of harmful bacteria in the mouth.

There are actually thousands of different types of bacteria in the mouth. Some of them are friendly, others are not.

The bacteria in the mouth create a “biofilm” on the teeth – a thin layer that they use to adhere to the surface. This is what we know as “plaque.”

Having some plaque on your teeth is normal, but if it gets out of hand it can cause all sorts of problems, including bad breath, yellow teeth, gum inflammation, gingivitis and cavities.

The way oil pulling works is simple. When you swish the oil around your mouth, the bacteria “get stuck” in it and dissolve in the liquid oil.

Basically, you remove a large amount of the bacteria and plaque in your mouth each time you do this.

I Personally Prefer Coconut Oil

Traditionally, the Indians used other oils such as sesame oil or sunflower oil.

Oil pulling should work with pretty much any oil you choose, but I prefer coconut oil because it has many health benefits.

The Lauric Acid (one of the fatty acids in coconut oil) is also proven to be antimicrobial… it can kill bacteria, viruses and fungi.

The taste of coconut oil is also fairly pleasant compared to other oils. I found it rather disgusting at first having my mouth full of oil, but I got used to it after a few days.

Now let’s look at a few studies on oil pulling…

Oil Pulling Can Reduce Harmful Bacteria in The Mouth

Streptococcus Mutans is one of the main bacteria in the mouth and a key player in plaque buildup and tooth decay.

In a study from 2008 with 20 boys, oil pulling (using sesame oil) caused a reduction in the number of Streptococcus Mutans in the plaque in as little as 2 weeks.

It was not as effective as a Chlorhexidine mouthwash, but much cheaper and MUCH less nasty.

Oil Pulling Can Reduce Plaque and Gingivitis

Gingivitis is caused by inflammation of the gums and happens when the immune system starts attacking the bacteria in the plaque.

Another study compared oil pulling and chlorhexidine in adolescents with plaque-induced gingivitis. Both oil pulling and chlorhexidine mouthwash were effective against gingivitis.

Oil Pulling Can Reduce Bad Breath

Bad breath, otherwise known as halitosis, is in many cases (not all) caused by the smell of chemicals and gases produced by bacteria in the mouth.

It makes sense that if you get rid of some of these bacteria, you reduce bad breath.

In a third study of 20 adolescents, oil pulling therapy significantly reduced all markers for bad breath and was just as effective as chlorhexidine mouthwash.

How to Oil Pull

Oil pulling is incredibly simple and effective.

Here’s how to do it:

1.Put about a tablespoon of oil in your mouth.

2.Swish the oil around your mouth for about 15-20 minutes.

3.Spit out the oil, then brush your teeth.

If you use coconut oil like me, then you may have to chew on the oil for a minute or so to let it melt, because it is solid at room temperature.

It is best to do this on an empty stomach, before you brush your teeth. I prefer to do it while I take a shower in the morning.

I put the oil in my mouth, swish it around while in the shower and try to “push” and “pull” the oil between my teeth.

When I get out of the shower I spit out the oil into the trash or toilet (not the sink… it can clog), rinse my mouth with water and then brush my teeth.

There is no need to use a lot of force here, if oil pulling causes pain in your facial muscles then just relax a bit. Try using less oil next time and don’t swish it around too forcefully.

What to Expect

I’ve been doing this for about 10 days now.

I’ve definitely noticed that my breath is fresher and my teeth look a lot cleaner… both whiter and more shiny.

I’ve never had any dental problems, but I can see how this could have benefits for people that have them.

There are a lot of wild claims about oil pulling online and I don’t believe all of them.

However, oil pulling IS effective at reducing the harmful bacteria in your mouth and improving oral and dental health.

Given that inflammation can cause all sorts of health problems, it does make sense that reducing inflammation in the gums and mouth could lead to benefits for overall health as well.

Perhaps this is the reason why many people report improvements in health issues that really have nothing to do with the mouth.

Anyway… I have to say that I am really surprised at how effective this is. I plan to continue doing this for a long time.
