so i heard about "oil pulling" today..its supposedly an ancient beauty treatment that works to help your skin become more radiant/blemish free, cures bad breath, & whitens teeth . you take an organic, cold-pressed, unrefined oil ( i'd do coconut oil myself) and swish it around in your mouth for 20 minutes a day. supposedly the oil absorbs plaque and bacteria. you floss, swish for 20 minutes, then brush when you get up in the morning. not sure if its all bull crap though, the article i read said that her dentist also recommended it and does it himself. i think i'm going to try it, i mean it can't hurt to try, considering its just oil!
anybody else ever heard of it, or had any positive experiences?
my only concern would be that i have a capped tooth in the front, which has kept me from whitening my teeth with anything more than a crest whitening strip.
edit: timing is key. exacty 20 minutes or the toxins will re-absorb. your saliva should be milky white from the oil pulling out bacteria
