Oil Pulling?

So, I just came across Oil Pulling and am super curious. Have any of you had any experiences with it?

Yes! I just did this a few weeks ago. I had sensitivity in a molar and I swear it went away after I did the oil pulling a few times. I suggest melting some coconut oil, don't put in your mouth solid its gross. It can't hurt to try.

I literally just spit my first try out! And yes, you're 100% right, using the oil solid had me gagging. I didn't last the whole 20 min though- It felt like I was swishing spit around in my mouth. But, people are swearing by it so I'll stick to it!

Thanks for the input!

No problem it gets easier! I always did 10 minutes, 20 was too much

I agree, it gets easier! I do it sporadically and for about 10 minutes but my teeth feel really clean afterwards. Make sure you don't spit it down the drain though!!

It's hard not to want to swallow..

I've heard of it & want to try it!! Any other success stories?

your not supposed to swallow it when you're doing oil pulling because it pulls out toxins. you'd be swallowing the toxins again and defeat the purpose.
