Gargling with oil is now-a-days known as oil-pulling. By gargling with coconut oil, germs and bacteria present in the mouth are removed and overall, it improves the health condition of the mouth and the body as a whole.
So far, oil-pulling or gargling was done using gingelly (sesame) oil. We can do oil-pulling with coconut oil as well. There are multiple benefits by gargling with coconut oil:
Bacteria are killed and foul smell in the mouth gets cured.
Blood-oozing in the gums gets arrested.
Stains in the teeth get removed while gargling with coconut oil and teeth get whiter.
Toxins get removed and the skin gets healthy and glowing.
There will be relief from complaints like headache and breathing problems.
