A plant-based oil-pulling mouth oil for the ancient Ayurvedic practice of oil pulling. Its ingredients include the seed of the soapnut (sapindus mukorossi), the resin of the dragon's blood tree, turmeric extract and xylitol.
The tradition of oil pulling
Oil pulling is an old practice of Ayurvedic mouth care: the oil is swished in the mouth for a few minutes to reach the teeth and gums, then spat out. With turmeric and xylitol it gives a refreshing, caring feel in the mouth. By tradition it supports a balanced oral flora; this is traditional use, not a medical promise.
How to use
Shake before use. Swish the mouth with 1 teaspoon of oil for 2 to 20 minutes, then spit it out (do not swallow). Rinse the mouth with warm water and brush your teeth as usual. According to Ayurvedic tradition, oil pulling is best done in the morning, on an empty stomach.
Good to know
Certified organic, vegan. Keep it in a cool place out of light. Do not pour the spat-out oil down the drain; dispose of it with waste.
