Have you heard of oil pulling?

It was the buzz of 2014 and given I'm a bit slow on the uptake it's taken until now for me to give it a go.  We all know how fabulous Coconut Oil is.  I spoke about the many benefits here.  Well, let's add whiter teeth to that list.



Coconut oil pulling is an old age remedy that cuts through plaque and removes toxins without harming the teeth or gums.

You quite simply swish a tablespoon of coconut oil in your mouth for a few minutes then spit it out.

The fact that it's called oil "pulling" is a bit confusing.  It refers to the oil "pulling" bacteria out of the gums.

Apparently you can use many oils, but coconut oil is the best because it's a consumable oil which has so many other great benefits for your body.  

So there you have it.  Yet another reason to have a jar of coconut oil in the cupboard. It helps you look and feel less Deep Fried.
