Sample testimonies of different diseases cured

There are many testimonies of disease cured from different people, differing in age, sex and duration of disease. More examples are given in my book on “Oil Pulling and Healthy Habits”. Sample testimonies of chronic diseases cured are appended below for showing the curative effect of oil pulling.

Forty five year old Asthma and Allergy cured

I am 56 years old. I have been suffering from allergy and asthma from the age of 11 years when I had my first menses. Whenever I had head bath after monthly periods I was suffering from asthma, cough and phlegm. It was very severe. This was lasting for about 3-4 days every month. In addition whenever I had head bath I used to suffer from the same type of allergy. I had tried all types of treatment for 45 years to get rid of this but without any success. I was spending my life with medicines but without cure. They had even diagnosed as a heart problem. I had lost hope of living. Life seamed a big burden and uncertain.
At this stage, on 3rd March 94 I met you (T Koteswara rao) in a marriage and you came to me and explained to me about oil pulling and encouraged me to practice it. 2 months after practicing my problems of healthbecame a little more severe and I took them as healing reactions and consoled myself with the hope that I am going to be cured totally after the reactions. These reactions lasted for about 2 months. Now after 9 months of oil pulling I have become wonderfully healthy. Asthma has gone, no pains in the joints or body, no spots or discoloration of the skin instead the skin has acquired a new shine, digestion has improved and I can eat anything without the fear of allergy. It is really enjoyable to eat things, which you like instead of fearing about allergy and asthma.

My advice to all women is, do oil pulling for all your problems you will remain healthy and your looks will improve.

Allergy Asthma- Exhilarating Experience

Letter2On the first day of oil pulling Feb 25, 1995, I felt an exhilarating feeling of freshness in the mouth.
Because of oil pulling, addiction to cigar smoking cured on Mar 28, 1995. I was able to work with increased energy, concentration and less impatience. My nostrils were clear and clean.

I had food allergic asthma from September 1975. By end of March ‘95, I gave up the use of inhalers for asthma.

Numbness in hands and legs disappeared in April 1995.

Discomfort in my feet and joints due to walking disappeared by April ‘95.

The food tastes better and I feel more energetic.

I am enjoying the freshness of mouth, good health and very sound sleep due to oil pulling.

Allergic bronchitis with wheezing

For the last three months, my wife and I are doing oil pulling regularly. I suffer from severe running nose. Now after I started doing oil pulling, the running nose has become very mild and it persists only for a day or so. I also used to get severe bouts of cough and with great difficulty manage to get the sputum out. Now the running nose does not follow by cough.
My wife used to develop allergic bronchitis with wheezing due to dust or after severe cold and on long journeys. She tried oil pulling for three months and did not develop wheezing or severe cough.

Cancer cases

Most importantly, I want to write about three cases of cancer. In two cases, biopsy report confirms “schirrus type of carcinoma of uterus”. In the third case, it is malignant growthof a tumor of a size bigger than tennis ball on the jawbone. This case is also of a woman on homeopathy medicines. Within two months of oil pulling, in bothcases of carcinoma of uterus bleeding reduced, general condition improved and they are confident that their disease will go. You know confidence/faith contributes to cure more than medicine.
In the case of malignant tumor after a month of oil pulling, pus came out of a hole in the tumor on the jawbone. The pus stopped after three weeks, the hole closed and the size of tumor came down to almost normal. In these cases, my medicines must have given temporary relief. I am hoping they will totally heal.

In case of joint pains the improvement that would have resulted in eight months with my medicines, have come within two moths of oil pulling.

For allergy, asthma and tooth diseases, the results are wonderful. My medicines must have given only temporary relief. I am hoping oil pulling will heal them totally.

Constipation – Piles-“With Oil Pulling Health Is Great Wealth”

I have been practicing oil pulling for the last one year with Til (gingelly-sesame) oil for fifteen to twenty minutes daily in the morning without fail. I am 82 years old. I have been suffering from constipation and piles for the last four decades. I consulted many doctors, used many medicines but with only temporary relief.
Within two weeks of practicing oil pulling, I started getting relief. There was no pain during motion. Inflammation and piles decreased. I started having free and clear evacuation. I am sleeping peacefully and happily at night. Indigestion, lack of appetite has gone. Decades old pain has gone just by doing oil pulling with gingelly (sesame) oil. Our Ayurvedic treatment is a comprehensive solution for all diseases. It is good for all to practice. -“With Oil Pulling Health Is Great Wealth”.

Diabetes – Pregnancy – Child birth

My age is 41 years. I am a diabetic patient with no children. After doing oil pulling for three months, I became pregnant. At the time of pregnancy, my blood sugar increased. I stopped oil pulling for about a month thinking it was aggravating my problem. Having come to know that aggravation is a sign of cure, I started oil pulling again. The sugar level came down and I continued oil pulling throughout my pregnancy. After a cesarean operation, I gave birthto a baby. The doctors checked for sugar, both for the baby and me. We both were free from sugar. The wound healed well and stitches removed on the seventh day. Doctor was astonished at this. I found oil pulling benefited me in the following ways:
I weigh 90 Kgs. height 4’11” with weak twisted foot. By walking, the foot used to become septic and pus used to ooze. By oil pulling and walking daily, I became strong and was able to walk up the steps without difficulty.

oil pulling reduced sugar gradually and diabetes cured. The skin became clear and shining and the spots on the body disappeared.

The body became strong, teeth firm; gums healthy and the hair turned black and stopped becoming white or gray.

Diabetes

At the advanced age of 74, it is unjust to expect miraculous result from any kind of therapy. Yet I must say that what I have experienced through oil pulling therapy is almost a miracle and quite unbelievable.
Diabetes has been troubling me for the past 13 years. Now my blood sugar level is normal, though I do not take any medicine. I have discontinued all medication including vitamins, enzymes etc.

Retired Civil Surgeon’s Report- Left Ventricular failure

I had recently suffered from Left Ventricular failure. After 15 days of starting oil pulling, I could find the change in my condition as evidenced by the echocardiogram. I was suffering from Acid Peptic disease (duodenal ulcer) for the past 30 years, and oil pulling has miraculously given relief and I have stopped using antacids.
I had Benign Hypertrophy of Prostate since some years, and after oil pulling nocturnal frequency of urine is much reduced.

Some minor ailments like stomatitis(inflammation of the mucus membrane of the mouth), glossitis (inflammation of the tongue), itching of skin on chest and neck, discoloration of skin have also gone.

After oil pulling, I saw my palms appeared definitely bright and full-blooded. So I went to the laboratory and got my HB tested. I was surprised to see that my hemoglobin content of blood has risen from 11gms to 12.4gms within a period of 2 months.

(Mouth) Halitosis- bad smell in Mouth

I have been suffering from bad smell in the mouth and pyorrhea for the last eight years. Mouth smell has not gone except visiting the dentist and getting things cleaned, and medication, Medication and dental cleaning was giving me only temporary relief. After five months of oil pulling bad smell in the mouth has completely gone whereas, pyorrhea has decreased and I feel confident that I will be normal without this problem. Oil pulling has helped me to bring back my self-confidence in a helpless state. With your kindness I am breathing happily and feel that you have given me rebirth.

- G.B.Rao, Rajamundry, A.P

I am one of the old patients suffering from mouth ulcer since last 12 to 15 years. After going through the article published in Kannada Prabha daily I started “OIL PULLING” twice in a day (morning & evening) from 27thof June 1995 along with medicine. During initial 2-3 months period I got only 25 % benefit. After that I got more benefit in 4-5 months period. After completing 6 months I got 100 % result and at the same time I slowly reduced my medicines. Now after completing of 7 months I have completely stopped the medicines and I have no complaints of mouth ulcer since last 2 to 3 months. So I am happy to say that I got 100 % relief/cure of my old sickness of mouth ulcer from “OIL PULLING”.

Myasthenia Gravis (MG) [Double Vision]

In my 36th year in 1980, I had suddenly developed double vision and right eyelid closing. Diagnosed as myasthenia gravis, medicine (prostigmine) prescribed.
During the year 1993, I started practicing oil pulling. I used medicine for one month along with oil pulling. Later I stopped medicines and continued oil pulling. Myasthenia Gravis cured without medicines. When I stopped for one month, it came up again. Now I do oil pulling only and do not use any medicines.

(Pains) Back Pain, Neck Pain

I had back pain for the past ten years and have been taking treatment for the same with several doctors and traction was also given for sufficiently long time without any improvement. I never used to go to bed without a medicine like Brufen, Voveran and others daily.
After reading the essay by Sri Tummala Koteswara Rao on oil pulling, I started practicing oil pulling with sunflower refined oil and started finding improvement within fifteen days and I was much relieved of the pain within three months. Now it is six months since I have been doing it and 90% of the pain is relieved. Now along with the back pain, the pain in my neck and arm pits has also gone. I am not taking any medicine for the back pain. I do not dare to stop oil pulling.

After finding good results myself, I started giving lectures in Telugu on “Keep Fit with Oil Pulling” in various local schools and associations and all of them are doing and most of them are very much benefited.

Back pain and Arthritis

I have been suffering from arthritis in the knees for the last 10 years and pain in the lower back for the last two decades. I have tried several allopathic medicines and got a temporary relief. I started doing oil pulling from Nov 17 1995 and observed miraculous changes happening. Within 5 days, my arthritis in the knees and lower back pain completely cured. It is just unbelievable how arthritis of the knees cured, which the allopathic medicines could not do.

Knee and Ankle Pain

Though I was reading the reports of the efficacy of oil pulling in curing certain diseases in “Andhra jyoti”, I did not begin until my brother, got relief from asthma and advised me to practice. I was not able to sleep under a fan or in the open as my nose used to block. Cold-water bath was another curse. After practicing oil pulling, I am able to sleep right under the fan with full speed with no discomfort. The occasional asthmatic or esonophilia attacks vanished. The pain on the left knee and right ankle for three to four years are no longer there. A small eruption on my skull – five years old – vanished. – 20 years old piles – has miraculously vanished.

Skin– Eczema Cured

I am 79 years and have retired as a teacher. I wanted to be healthy by doing oil pulling and have been practicing once daily since November 95. I have eczema for the last 30 years on the left foot. It has been there in spite of various treatments. Similarly, on the right hand index finger eczema is there for the last 10 years. I have lower back pain for quite few years. It was called spondylitis. I have been oil pulling for the last 1 year and 8 months. Lower back pain has completely gone and no pain. Eczema on the right index finger is also cured and skin is normal. The eczema on the left foot is becoming normal with a little itching sometimes. I am sure it will also go, but the cure is simply surprising, but I am confident that the remaining symptoms of eczema on the left foot will also be cured.

Tooth Pain and Loose Teeth

I am an 86 year, aged retired public servant. I developed tooth ache. The toothache was really agonizing. I thought, I may try, being a skeptic, oil pulling before visiting the dentist. Hardly did I try it for a couple of days then the intensity of ache came down. In another two days the pain stopped totally. This pain was centered on an incisor the base of which was affected and tooth itself was shaking. Having got some relief I developed faith in its efficacy and continued the treatment for a fortnight. The affected tooth miraculously firmed up and now I am able to bite fruits and other not so hard items of food. This is a radical change….I feel thankful for this therapy.

    I have only started oil pulling 5 days and my chronic toothache has stopped, in fact I stopped taking painkillers after pulling for 2 days, amazing, I am continuing and have even got my astmatic 16year son to start, he suffered bad Herksheimer effect but persisted. I will hopefully keep you posted on how we are doing, and yes my gums have improved in colour and less spongy, my teeth really clean, ah my Dentist is not a happy bunny!

    Please do oil pulling with refined Sunflower oil or gingelly oil once daily in the morning. It may take atleast 3 months before you can notice any change in the color of the hair.

    Greetings:

    I have been reading all the wonderful things about oil pulling and have started two days ago. I have had hypothyroidism for decades and take thyroid medication–quite a large dose. Despite that, I have not noticed any improvement: my eyebrows have not grown back; my weight is still bothersome. I experience a generalized sluggishness and malaise. Also, arthritis in my hands is severe. this is difficult as I am an illustrator. Therefore, I have started OP with canola oil and hope to experience some of the wonderful improvements I have read about.

    Dear Kavita,

    Please try and teach your daughter how to do oil pulling with 5-10ml of water first. Show her by doing it yourself. She must spit it out after pulling. If you are satisfied, you can do it with oil and make her do it along with you with 5ml of oil only. Please make sure you brush her teeth after spitting it out, and wash her mouth with warm water.

    If you are satisfied, let her continue doing it and it should help her in reducing wheezing, cough etc.

    Best Wishes,
    Col. T. K. Rao

    OP will have different effect on similar patiets based on their harmonal imbalance and state of health. SceintificallyOP brings about harmonal balance in the body by influencing pitutary and pineal glands.This harmonal balance in each individual cures diseases, may be of similar nature or different nature.The level of harmones and immunoglobins in the blood before OP and after OP can be checked for verification.

    OP has increased growth hormone in many cases. I have no experience of this nature but I don’t see any side effects from doing OP.

    began oil pulling with virgin coconut oil 5 days ago…1 tbsp. for 20 min. sinus problems/excess mucous have disappeared. Teeth are whiter, skin smoother and less dry. A benign skin growth on my cheek which has been there for years has almost disappeared! Warning: due to detoxifying nature of OP, I experienced increased lethargy on days 3 and 4…still a bit tired, but look and feel healthier. I sincerely believe oil pulling is a “fountain of youth”.
