Oil Pulling
Oil pulling has been long used to keep oral hygiene and treat mouth issues. It is believed that it can help remove toxins from the gums and teeth. Some studies have indicated that this is a good option for reducing bacteria, improving bad breath, and treating bleeding gums. You can use olive oil, sesame oil, or raw coconut oil for oil pulling. You need to put 1 tablespoon of oil into the mouth and swish through the teeth for at least 15 minutes. After that, spit out and rinse your mouth. Do not swallow. It is recommended that oil pulling should be done when the stomach is empty or in the morning. [4]
