How to oil pull:
Drink 1 cup of water on an empty stomach.
Melt 1-3 tsp. of organic, cold-pressed vegetable oil (I like coconut oil the best) in your mouth or over very low heat in a double boiler.
Swish through your mouth for 20 minutes while you’re busy doing something else. The first few times my gag reflexes reared themselves and it was a little difficult keeping the oil in my mouth, but I persisted and by the third day it was fine. If you have this problem too, I recommend sticking with it.
Spit into trash, compost or outside in the grass (just not in the sink - we don’t want to clog the pipes).
Swish water through your mouth to rinse.
