mmm yes arnica is very helpful and I want to let you know that I too have found myself with fewer body aches - especially in my arms of late. I am not sure it is just the oil pulling because I am also having massage but I suspect that the oil pulling is helping. This morning as a matter of fact, I did it 2x back to back and the second time SOMETHING GROSS was there as I spit out the oil. It was not food either - I had flossed and brushed thoroughly before I started - it was mucous like and I felt really great afterward. ....and the toothache I have been having for weeks is now gone!
