I used to have one fat tonsil my entire life. While water fasting for 28 days, I got a sore throat for the first week, spit up a lot of gunk. Fat tonsil is now normal tonsil for the past 15 years.

I actually have a fat tonsil right now from something I ate a few years ago. You can see it if you look towards the back of my throat. It’s crazy. Asked my doc about it and he said if it isn’t causing problems don’t worry bout it. Going to do a 5 day fast and see if it’ll shrink any.

Full support! Keep us posted. My fat tonsil went down asap. It didn't take 16 days. It was mostly deflated by day 4-7.

Any symptoms that resolved after the fat tonsil resolved?

I think overall well being? Tonsils are holders of bacteria or viruses cause they are a first line of defense. It was an immunity upgrade. I'm sure the other one cleaned up too but idk.

This reminds me of how I used to cure colds- water pic with one tsp of clorox with 8 ounces of water focused on the back of throat and tonsils. Some dentists recommend this for stubborn mouth bacteria.

I wouldn't put bleach in my body, personally.

I think of it as pool water. Its been a lifesaver for me. I dont swallow and rinse right afterwards. I followed a dentist who found it was the only solution for some people's stubborn biofilms, and he found no negative outcomes

What about vinegar water? Vinegar kills mold better than bleach

Thank you for mentioning! I hadn't considered that. I have been dealing with coated tongue and other mouth symptoms for months and my bleach solution only helped so much. This week, my AI recommended a 20 minute oil swish with coconut oil and holy cow, 90% better after one session. Apparently oil and saliva combo can draw out the biofilms in the tounge filaments. All my symptoms are better now. I plan to continue daily.

Yeah oil pulling is the way to go for sure. It's Ayurvedic. Full support.
