Oil Pulling

According to ancient Ayurvedic medicine, the act of oil pulling is a remedy for oral health and detoxification.  Oil pulling helps increase the secretion of saliva and pull out toxins, harmful bacteria, and fungus out of the teeth, gums, mouth and throat. Research states that oil pulling improves your overall health, helps prevent plaque buildup, and is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal.

Ancient Ayurvedic practitioners believe oil pulling medicinal properties extend far beyond the mouth and throat. It is believed to support the lymphatic system, hormone balancing, migraine relief, eczema reduction, reduce insomnia, reduce bad breath, help detoxify heavy metals and organisms. The extended health benefits may actually be a result of lowering and removing the bacteria, fungus and toxins out of the mouth thereby preventing it from traveling throughout the body wrecking more havoc.

Organic coconut oil, sesame oil or olive oil can be used for the oil pulling. Start with a tablespoon of oil and swish in your mouth for approximately 10 to 15 minutes and then spit it all out. It is recommended to perform the oil pulling first thing in the morning before eating or drinking. If you have severe teeth and oral conditions then you can perform oil pulling before each meals on a daily basis. If your spit is white and frothy then you did it correctly. If it’s yellow then you need to swish the oil longer. When you are all done then check how the coating of your tongue looks. Not to be gross but the thicker and darker the coating on your tongue is indicative that there are more toxins in your organs.

Your health is worth it because You are worth the investment of your time and energy.
