OIL PULLING

What is the hype? Want a new hobby?

Let’s talk about the best thing ever: Oil pulling.

Oil pulling is an ancient practice that involves swishing oil in your mouth to remove bacteria and improve your dental health. Honestly, it is not entirely clear how oil pulling works, but it works. It pulls your bacteria from the mounth. Oil pulling is a real game-changer, well, anything that whitens my teeth…I’m in.

Okay, if I am talking about oil pulling, let’s talk what kind of oil, right. Some people use sesame  oil and I prefer coconut oil. I am hard core fan of coconut oil. Yes, organic coconut oil, of course.

My personal favorite is: extra virgin, cold pressed, organic coconut oil.

How long does the whole process take? 20 minutes. Are you serious? Yes, 20 minutes. You can check your e-mails, do your make up, walk around the house, clean the house, cook, text, make a post on Instragram or Facebook while oil pulling. Isn’t multitasking our fav thing to do. Sounds like Fun times, right? 🙂
