Coconut Oil For Great Health

Let’s face it, we are exposed to an
alarming amount of toxins on a daily basis. From the BPA that lines your canned goods to the
pesticides liberally sprayed on anything alive these days, our bodies are
constantly absorbing an outrageous amount of chemicals.

Even though you may try to live as
pure a life as possible, sneaky sources of dangerous metals are everywhere,
even in the so-called “all natural” products that fool consumers into believing
these ingredients are safe. These “all natural” pre-packaged foods
are usually the worst of them all!

Over time, high concentrations of metals build up in our systems and can lead to
a wide variety of conditions, including, but not limited to: Anemia,
Dizzniess, Fatigue, Dry Skin, Joint or muscle aches, Loss of appetite, Blood
pressure issues, Nausea and even Vitamin and mineral deficiencies.

Try as you may, there’s just no
getting around the obscene amounts of toxins we are exposed to daily.

  Follow
  these instructions to perform the oil pulling method:
  1. Oil
  pulling should be done on an empty stomach (preferably first thing in the
  morning)
  2. Use
  one tablespoon of organic virgin coconut oil – you may want to start with ½
  tablespoon and work your way up to a tablespoon.
  3. Swish
  the oil around in your mouth slowly and be sure that the oil reaches all parts
  of your mouth – do not swallow.
  4. Swish
  for five to ten minutes. Try to work up to twenty minutes if you can.
  5. Spit
  out all of the oil when you are done and rinse your mouth with water.
  6. Brush
  with a natural toothpaste afterwards.
  Note: Some people may feel a bit ill
  during or after oil pulling – this is generally a good sign that your body
  is removing toxins and should dissipate as you become healthier.
  Daily oil pulling with organic
  coconut oil along with consuming a healthy diet, getting plenty of exercise and
  sleep will help your body stay sharp and ready to defend the onslaught of
  toxins you face each day! And your dentist just may be amazed at your next
  appointment in a few months at how much better your oral health is becoming!
