OP Part 2

Well, the anticipation was killing me, so I went ahead and tried the oil pulling again today. My son was already asleep. I did not want to chance the microwave bell waking him after I melted the coconut oil, so I simply used the only other oil I had on hand that's acceptable--robust flavor evoo. I planted myself in front of the toilet and took 1 t evoo. To my surprised (and delight), not only was the flavor not bad, but I experienced no gagging! Fifteen minutes later, I spit, rinsed with water, brushed, rinsed with mouth wash, and am now feeling squeaky clean! :)
