At this point, most people are familiar with this practice, but not everyone is eager to try it out. Well, if you are interested in learning more about it and why you should try it as soon as possible, read on!
Simply, all you have to do is to swish unrefined oil in your mouth, just like you would do with a mouthwash. The choice of oil depends on your needs, but you need to make sure that the oil is unrefined and high quality. While oil pullers traditionally used sesame oil, most people turn to coconut oil these days, due to its whitening, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and enzymatic properties .

If using coconut oil, you get the added benefit of killing of bacteria that may be living in the mouth, which in turn leaves healthy strains.
To sum up, oil pulling provides a wide range of benefits, including the following:
Reducing harmful bacteria in the mouth
Reducing bad breath
Reducing plaque and gingivitis
Instructions:
Put ½ to 1 tablespoon of oil into the mouth
Swirl the oil between the teeth and around the gums, allowing it to reach every area in the mouth
Make sure it doesn’t get in contact with the throat!
Swish the oil in the mouth from 15-20 minutes
