Oil pulling is a natural and gentle method of maintaining oral hygiene, and it is unlikely to disrupt the healthy microbiome of the mouth when done properly. Some studies suggest that oil pulling can actually promote a healthy balance of oral bacteria by reducing the number of harmful bacteria in the mouth and supporting the growth of beneficial bacteria. However, it's important to note that oil pulling should not be used as a substitute for regular brushing and flossing, as it does not remove plaque and debris from the teeth as effectively as mechanical brushing and flossing. It's also important to choose a high-quality oil that is free from contaminants and additives. GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil is an all-natural way to help rid the mouth of cavity-causing bacteria and plaque without destroying good oral bacteria. Used regularly, it can help keep breath fresh and teeth whiter. Fortified with eight pure and natural essential oils and three vitamins, this product supports cleaner teeth, stronger bones, and healthier gums for a happier smile.

While conventional coconut oil on its own can help pull bad bacteria from the teeth and gum line, its viscosity can make it difficult to effectively swish between teeth. This blend of fractionated coconut oil mixed with 100% pure and natural oregano oil, a natural antibiotic, as well as other antimicrobial essential oils like tea tree, clove, peppermint, fennel, cardamom, and spearmint, offers synergistic benefits and support inhibiting bad bacteria and dislodging the biofilms that cause tooth decay and gum disease. With the fresh taste of essential oils and virgin coconut oil, and lightly enhanced with stevia, GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil is gentle and pleasant on the palate. It also contains Vitamin D3,K2 and Vitamin E.

Oil pulling can support healthier gums by helping remove bad bacteria from the gum line and between teeth. This in turn can lower the risk of gingivitis, gum sensitivity, and bleeding gums. GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil is fortified with a blend of 100% pure and natural essential oils and vitamins to support anti-inflammation, stronger gums, and even stronger teeth, in addition to refreshing breath and whitening.

GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil can be used up to twice a day. Simply swish the product in your mouth and between your teeth for up to five minutes, then spit it out in the trash can. If you are new to using pulling oil, you may find its thicker texture unusual at first. Start by swishing for even ten seconds, then slowly build up. If you oil pull for 3 minutes or over, the oil mixes with your saliva and saponification turns the liquid into a thinner, almost water-like substance.

GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil is a pre-brush regimen. It softens the biofilms behind which the bad bacteria that cause cavities hide. After oil pulling and water flossing, brushing will be even more effective at cleaning teeth and removing bad bacteria and food buildup.

Coconut oil pulling is believed to whiten teeth by removing bacteria and plaque from the mouth. The oil's fatty acids bind to the bacteria, helping to lift stains from the teeth. While not scientifically proven, this traditional remedy is popular for its natural, chemical-free approach to oral care. GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil contains coconut oil as well as 100% pure and natural essential oils and vitamins that support a balanced oral microbiome, fresher breath, stronger teeth and gums, and a brighter smile.

Traditional mouthwash is made with the base of water, synthetic dyes for color, germicides like alcohol, cetyl, peridium, chloride, and artificial sweeteners like sodium and saccharin. By using it, you run the risk of killing good oral bacteria that helps you break down food and fight cavities, drying out your mouth, and even staining your teeth. On the other hand, GuruNanda Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil is a pre-brush rinse. It’s oil-based and has added ingredients of oregano, tea tree, clove, peppermint, spearmint, cardamom and fennel seed oil. Added also are vitamins D3, K2, and E. Each of these essential oils had traditional benefits being a natural antimicrobial, anti-fungal, a natural antibiotic, a natural nesthetic, and a natural antiseptic alongside breath-freshening. These vitamins ensure bone health and mucosa health.

While GuruNanda coconut oil is specially formulated not to freeze, if you are worried about your pipes, spit it out into the trash can instead of the sink.

The pH of MCT (Medium-Chain Triglyceride) oil is generally considered to be neutral, similar to most other oils, and does not have acidic or alkaline properties. Oils are composed of fatty acids and glycerol, which are non-polar substances and do not have a pH value in the way that aqueous solutions do. pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution, and since oils are not water-based, the concept of pH does not apply to them. It is a type of fat that is easily absorbed by the body and is not involved in the body's acid-base balance.

We always recommend that you consult your doctor about anything you put in your mouth and on your body while breastfeeding. Coconut + Mint Pulling Oil is not meant to be ingested, just swished and spit out. It should not have negative effects, given that its ingredients are all-natural–but please consult your doctor.

We do not recommend that children use pulling oil for the following reasons: Swallowing risk: Young children, especially those below the age of six, may have difficulty understanding the process and may accidentally swallow the oil. Swallowing a significant amount of oil can potentially lead to gastrointestinal discomfort, such as nausea or diarrhea. Choking hazard: Oil pulling requires swishing the oil vigorously in the mouth, and young children may not have the necessary motor skills to perform this action properly. There is a risk of accidental choking if they are unable to control the movement of the oil in their mouth.
