Daily Swish

Have you heard of oil pulling? It has SO many more benefits than a traditional mouth wash. While mouthwash kills all bacteria in the mouth, oil pulling leaves the good bacteria to do its thing: protect us and cultivate a vibrant and effective gut microbiome. Oil pulling can lift stains and whiten teeth without the harmful stripping of enamel often associated with traditional whitening strips.

This is a peppermint and licorice infused Pulling Oil. Don’t worry, licorice root doesn’t taste like black licorice—it actually brings a subtle sweetness to the formula that I felt was missing in other store bought pulling oils I’ve tried. Licorice root is the real star here as it has been shown to help remineralize teeth, protects against gum disease, and can reduce swelling from any current gum disease. The peppermint infusion leaves you with fresh breath and hydrated gums. These two plant superstars are infused in MCT oil which is antibacterial, anti inflammatory, and reduces plague formation.

To use: before brushing; swish about a tablespoon daily for 5-10 minutes then spit in the trash can or toilet to avoid any clogging of drains.
