  • Oil pulling, an ancient Ayurvedic practice, is gaining popularity as a natural way to improve dental hygiene. This method, dating back over 3,000 years, involves swishing oil in the mouth before breakfast to remove toxins and promote oral health.

Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic practice that involves swishing oil around in your mouth to improve oral health. According to the article from MSN, this technique is believed to detoxify the body, whiten teeth, and reduce harmful bacteria in the mouth. The process involves taking a tablespoon of oil, typically coconut, sesame, or sunflower oil, and swishing it around in the mouth for about 15-20 minutes before spitting it out. Benefits cited include reducing bad breath, preventing cavities, and alleviating gum disease. While some studies suggest it can decrease the number of bacteria in the mouth, there's limited scientific evidence to support all the claimed benefits. The article also provides a step-by-step guide on how to perform oil pulling, emphasizing not to swallow the oil as it contains toxins and bacteria from the mouth. However, it's recommended to continue with regular dental hygiene practices like brushing and flossing, as oil pulling should not replace these conventional methods.
