This is an easy process of the swishing of oil inside the mouth for 15 to 20 minutes. It's best when done first thing in the morning before eating or drinking on an empty stomach. For the treatment of chronic infections, it can be done up to 3 times a day, waiting 4 hours after eating. The suggested oils to use include sunflower, organic coconut oil, sesame, or virgin olive. I particularly use organic coconut oil because I don't mind the taste of it and it seems to work well with me.

I am going to focus on oil pulling therapy with organic coconut oil. Did you know that organic coconut oil has many anti-properties including anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial, and containing many antioxidants, which we all know is important? So, just how does this process work? Oil pulling therapy does not work by killing germs. However, it does work by drawing the toxins held deep within the crevices of the teeth, gums, and the tongue.

You can use a tablespoon of oil for oil pulling. I just do it in the morning and if anything, it keeps my teeth and gums strong and healthy. Yes, it is very good for improving your dental health. Whether it be cavities, bad breath, gum or mouth disease, lifting stains, and cleansing the teeth, it does all this. In fact, six months ago I went to the dentist with 3 cavities, which were filled. My next visit 6 months later showed no cavities and I believe is due to the oil pulling therapy each morning. It really does work.

Basically, your swishing the edible oil around slowly in your mouth for the 15 to 20 minutes, using a tablespoon of oil. You want to move it around slowly, swishing in and out of the teeth. Then, spit it out in the toilet and thoroughly rinse your mouth out a few times with warm water or even some mouth wash. I brush my teeth after my oil pulling therapy. Not only is it good for your dental health but also for your body and for certain illnesses which include constipation, insomnia, diabetes, hormonal problems, allergies, high blood pressure and sugar, cancer, and many more oil pulling benefits.

You will be happy to know that organic coconut oil increases the metabolism, gives you tons of energy, and even aids the body to lose weight. Make sure you get edible oil that is organic. Also, some people experience symptoms of detoxification in the beginning. However, once you continue, these will disappear. I hope this information was helpful and I hope you give oil pulling with coconut oil a try.
