The Power Of Pulling
Oil pulling with coconut oil is known to have a long list of beauty and health benefits, starting from clearer skin and ending with better immune health (thanks to the lauric acid in coconut oil)! This ancient practice can help you start off your day feeling refreshed and energized. So here's how to do it!
Step 1
Before you brush your teeth, take about about a tablespoon of coconut oil and swish, just like you would mouthwash, for anywhere between 5 to 20 minutes.
Step 2
Don't gargle! As the coconut oil grabs the toxins from your mouth, it will start to melt and expand! It's physical proof that the pulling is working, but also a great reminder not to swallow.
Step 3
After you're done, spit the oil into the trash, instead of the sink. That way it won't cause problems with your plumbing!
