Description: For years I would take a probiotic with L-Lysine, several times per day for several days, until the cold sore went away. However, one morning I woke up with a cold sore starting. I was out of L-Lysine. I thought of Oil Pulling: un-refined sesame oil, Place in mouth, chew, swish back and forth slowly, move through teeth. for 15 minutes. Then, spit oil into a plastic bag (don't want oil down the drain or throat!). Brush teeth (very important to clean teeth/mouth after). If you want to do oil pulling longer, use new oil. Good oil pulling websites out there!
Directions For Use: About 1 - 2 tablespoons. I directed the oil in this case between the outsided of my teeth and the lip where the cold sore was starting, moving oil back and forth.
Not To Use With: Oil pulling websites say to do oil pulling on an empty stomach
Side Effects: From what I have read, there are no side effects. Very impt. to clean teeth after and not exceed 15 to 20 min. of pulling with the same oil.
Expected Results: believe it or not, for me, the soreness went away within a half an hour and no cold sore formed!!!!
Expected Results Within: Immediately
