Does oil pull really work? Discover why coconut oil is a natural powerhouse for your oral health

Oil Pulling is an age -old Ayurvedic practice that has been used for generations to improve oral health and detoxify the body. But how effective is oil pulling with coconut oil, and what makes it such a popular choice? In this blog we investigate the benefits of oil pulling and we discover why this is a powerful alternative to conventional oral care products.

🥥 What is oil pulling?

Oil pulling is a method where you rinse a tablespoon of oil-such as coconut oil-in your mouth for about 15-20 minutes. The goal is to pull harmful bacteria, toxins and plaque out of your mouth and thus improve your oral health and overall well -being.

Coconut oil is a frequently chosen basis for oil pulling thanks to properties such as:

  • Antibacterial effect: Due to the lauric acid, coconut oil works strongly against bacteria such as Streptococcus Mutans.

  • Mild taste: More pleasant to use than other oils such as sesame or sunflower.

  • Natural whitening: Helps to remove the teeth deposits in a soft way.
