5 BENEFITS OF OIL PULLING

Picture
Oil pulling is an oral detoxification done by swishing 1 tablespoon of coconut oil around in your mouth for 10-15 minutes. It works by pulling the toxins out of your mouth and creating a clean environment that contributes to the proper flow of saliva. This makes it curative as well as preventative when it comes to oral health. 

5 BENEFITS OF OIL PULLING
  1. Can kill harmful bacteria
  2. Could help reduce bad breath
  3. May prevent cavities
  4. Decreases gum inflammation and improve oral health
  5. Simple and inexpensive


HOW I DO OIL PULLING
  • First thing in the morning before eating or drinking, swish 1 tablespoon of organic unrefined coconut oil in your mouth and between for 10-15 minutes.  I like to do this while I am taking a shower or getting ready for the day. 
  • Make sure you don't swallow the oil. After 10-15 minutes, spit it in a trash can (not in the sink or it will clog the drain over time). Rinse your mouth with warm water and then brush your teeth. 
  • The recommendation is 3-4 times weekly but after doing this for years, I have found that my mouth and teeth feel gross if I don't do it daily.

* I like to add 1 drop of Clove Essential oil to my mouth after adding the coconut oil for an added oral health boost.
