Objective: Compare and evaluate the efficacy of sesame oil, coconut oil, and sunflower oil pulling on gingival health.
Methodology: Triple-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted by using three different oils in three groups.
Results: All three oils were found to be effective on gingival health but coconut oil is found to be more effective.
Conclusion: This study concluded that all three oils were effective in improving gingival health.

The oil palm ( Jacq.) is a perennial oilseed crop whose mesocarp produces palm oil rich in the unsaturated fatty acid oleic acid, known for its oxidative stability and cardiovascular health benefits. However, the regulatory mechanisms and pathways responsible for variations in oleic acid biosynthesis during fruit development remain inadequately elucidated.

Background: Head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiation therapy (RT) are at an increased risk of dental caries due to radiation-induced damage to salivary glands. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of three interventions-virgin coconut oil (VCO), casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate tooth mousse (TM), and amine fluoride mouthwash (MW)-in preventing caries among head and neck cancer patients' post-radiation therapy.
Methods: A total of 102 head and neck cancer patients undergoing RT were enrolled.

Background: Coconut milk encounters challenges related to global sustainability and its high fat content, which may potentially have adverse effects on health. Nanocrystal cellulose (NCC) has gained attention due to its amphiphilic nature, high aspect ratio and large elastic modulus, making it a beneficial natural stabilizer for emulsion stabilization. Recent studies have demonstrated that NCC plays a role in modulating gastrointestinal digestion.

Background: Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis), a tropical crop, is highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations, with low temperatures significantly limiting its growth, development, and geographical distribution. Understanding the adaptive mechanisms of oil palm under low-temperature stress is essential for developing cold-tolerant varieties. This study focused on analyzing the physiological and metabolomic responses of annual thin-shell oil palm seedlings to low-temperature exposure (8 °C) for different time periods: 0 h (CK), 0.
