June 12, 2014 by I’ve been getting tons of questions about oil-pulling from my clients, lately (I blame it on the GOOP effect) so I put together a short video on how I whiten my teeth naturally with oil pulling. Oil-pulling comes from the Ayurvedic tradition and sounds a little weird at first. But I promise you will get used to it in a couple of days, and even enjoy doing it once you see fast results. Personally, oil-pulling has become a part of my daily morning routine, just like brushing my teeth. Plus, I enjoy doing it because I know well it works. Check out this video for the full scoop: As I mentioned in the video, you can use any oil, as long as it’s not roasted. However, I personally prefer unrefined coconut oil or sesame oil. If you know someone who uses whitening strips or other products to whiten their teeth, share this video with them, for a natural, and gentler alternative that is just as effective (without getting sensitive teeth!) Try oil-pulling to whiten your teeth for a week. Then come back here and leave a comment below to let us know how it worked for you!
