Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic remedy for oral health and detoxification. It helps for pulling harmful bacteria, fungus, and other organisms out of the mouth, teeth, gums and throat.
Oil pulling is not that difficult. It is also not that expensive!
HOW TO OIL PULL
We use cold pressed, organic extra virgin coconut oil.
1 tablespoon or so
Put it in your mouth and if it is hard it will turn to liquid within a minute.
Hold in mouth for 15 minutes (if you can't do that long do what you can, its a process to get used to)
When you are done spit in a garbage can (not down the drain it will clog your drain)
Rinse your mouth and brush your teeth
*TIPS* I oil pull when I get in the shower that way I am not really thinking about it
Start out slow, a few days a week. A few of my clients have experienced headaches and signs they may be detoxing too quicky. You can gradually increase the days you oil pull.
