Hi Kristin, I’m glad you enjoyed the post! Sometimes I do 10 minutes in the morning while prepping my morning smoothie etc and then I do another 10 minutes in the evening. Other times I do 20 minutes while working first thing in the morning at my computer.

Great overview! My production assistant has been singing oil pulling’s praises for a while now and I’ve meant to read up on it. Thanks for your informative breakdown, I’m going to give it a try. I’m wondering though if you have to do it for 20 min to see results? That seems like a really long time.

Hi Ashley, Thanks for your post! I do oil pulling first thing in the morning before I have eaten anything. If you can do it 3 times, I am sure that would be beneficial. Most people would find it hard to fit 3 sessions in per day. I also don’t think oil pulling after eating an apple is an issue at all. I drink water after my session as well. I hope this helps!

When I read this article I was so on board. I did my first Oil Pulling session this morning. I was reading a lot about Oil Pulling and it’s benefits – SO I’m excited to see the results I achieve. I’m using organic sesame oil and spitting the remains in the toilet, as it was mentioned that the toxic gunk is better put in the toilet. I do have a few questions:
(1) It said that you could do the Oil Pulling session up to 3 times a day. How many times a day would you recommend?
(2) It mentions to do the session on an ‘empty stomach’. I eat many small meals throughout the day and on some days I workout in the morning. What is considered an empty stomach? How many hours or minutes is okay? Could I have an apple and they wait 30 minutes to do a session, since it’s not a heavy carb meal?
(3) Can I drink water right after the session? I do drink a lot of H20 and I downed a bottle after my first. Is that okay?

You just need to rinse your mouth a few times after the oil pulling session. I rinse with warm water mixed with sea salt about 4 times.

At what point do you brush your teeth; how long after do you have to wait?

Sounds interesting. Not sure how that would work with a 3yo expecting me to talk to her. Don’t think I could do it without her throwing a fit.

Hi Eileen, that is great! I’ve noticed my teeth are whiter, my gums are really healthy, and my skin is very clear…I’m sure there are many other benefits going on that I’m not even aware of! Kim

Kim, I just got around to getting Sesame Oil and am wondering what results you’ve had after 6 weeks. Eileen
