Sahara Rose: Using the Right Oil for Oil Pulling

Although oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic tradition, it is one that just as relevant and important in an everyday lifestyle. Sahara Rose, Certified Ayurvedic, Holistic, and Sports Nutritionist, as well as author of the upcoming book, Idiot's Guide to Ayurveda, shares in this blog post that DrTung's Oil Pulling Concentrate is her preferred oil for oil pulling. Unlike mouthwash, the practice of oil pulling rids the mouth of harmful bacteria while preserving good bacteria. Sahara says that the practice of oil pulling "helps dissolve the stored bacteria on the roofs of our mouths, tongues, gum-lines and cheeks, giving us healthier mouths and bodies." When speaking to using the correct oil for oil pulling, Sahara points out that this is an important selection that depends on your Ayurvedic mind-body type, called a Dosha. Despite the base oil you may use, she shares the following:

• For extra benefits, use Dr. Tungs Oil Pulling concentrate which contains over 24 Ayurvedic herbs and botanicals for extra benefits. It brings your oil-pulling time down to just three minutes with the same benefits because it’s so concentrated. You can also dilute the mixture with your own oil so the container lasts you longer.

We're honored by Sahara's testimonial about choosing DrTung's Oil Pulling Concentrate as her preferred oil for oil pulling. She shares that "I love combining their oil-pulling solution with my own sesame oil to add further detoxifying benefits to my daily swish. It brings down my oil-pulling time and leaves my mouth with the most delicious taste."
