This is an act of self love.

Oil pulling is an ancient Ayervedic method to remove toxins from the body by way of the saliva. It works to help detoxify every disease, and will whiten and brighten your teeth!

Oil pulling is good for just about every condition known.

It exerts a powerful detoxification effect on the entire body through picking up germs and bacteria in our mouth and even beyond by pulling them through the mucous membranes in the mouth.

These toxins enter our saliva through a process of enzymatic action in the bloodstream, and are drawn up and eventually out of our body with the oil that captures them. Oil is thicker than water. When you apply concentrated oils to the mucus membranes of the mouth the oil attracts less concentrated oil-soluble toxins underneath the skin. It also activates the salivary enzymes that can break down these toxins.

You can use cold-pressed organic sesame oil (unroasted), or organic olive or coconut oil.

In Ayurvedic tradition sesame oil is known as the Queen of Oils. And coconut oil is the Princess.

Sesame oil is said to be the very first oil extracted and used in the diet and for healing.

Sesame and Coconut oil don’t go rancid at room temperature and its: antibacterial, antiviral, inflammatory and calming.

Here are some of the benefits of Oil Pulling:

1. Your teeth will become whiter.

2. Your teeth will be stronger at the roots.

3. Your gums will not bleed.

4. You’ll have more energy.

* Warning If you have mercury fillings, some practitioners say it may pull mercury from your teeth if used everyday. More research needs to be done on this aspect of oil pulling.

TRY IT!

How to use Oil Pulling to Regenerate your teeth:

• Swish about a tablespoon or two of pure vegetable oil in your mouth for about 10 minutes first thing in the morning on an empty stomach is all it takes.
• Hold the oil in your mouth, mixing the oil with your saliva- that is the key.

*You will notice after about 10 minutes the consistency changes and it is time to spit it out- in the toilet and NOT in the sink.

*Never swallow the oil or spit it in the sink as it becomes toxic.

* Use your tongue scraper to remove any residual oil left on your tongue.

*Rinse and spit again this time into sink.

*Then, brush your teeth.

*Drink one to two glasses of water right afterwards.

You are officially wide awake, and ready to take on the day with the freshest mouth ever!

The key with this, as with most health practices, is consistency 😉
