Why Should I Be Oil Pulling?<br />
There is often a preconception that if it’s a natural<br />
technique it won’t be as good as the latest<br />
chemical option however many holistic treatments<br />
have stood the test of time and continue to be<br />
passed down from generation to generation. Oil<br />
pulling is one that I can certainly see staying for<br />
many years to come.<br />
What is Oil Pulling?<br />
It is a traditional Indian Ayurvedic technique<br />
that draws toxins from the mouth and the body<br />
through the gums, teeth and pores in the mouth.<br />
Trapping bacteria that can then be expelled when<br />
the oil is removed.<br />
It is estimated that this holistic technique has been<br />
used for between 3000-5000 years! To me that<br />
shows that this is not a fad and there is a science<br />
behind the technique that has withstood the test<br />
of time.<br />
Which oil should I use?<br />
My personal choice is Coconut oil as it is known<br />
to be particularly effective due to its natural<br />
antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. I<br />
personally feel more comfortable with the delicate<br />
taste and light texture.<br />
However you could also use sesame or sunflower<br />
oil. You may also like to consider an oil pulling<br />
mouthwash as it already comes in liquid form and<br />
may fit in to your general routine with ease. I use<br />
the Georganics oil pulling mouthwash in english<br />
peppermint - lovely and refreshing in the morning.<br />
