KEY INGREDIENTS:

Sesame Oil

We use sesame seeds grown & cold pressed in India to ensure that our sesame oil is authentic, pure & in line with Ayurvedic tradition. Sesame oil is known in Ayurveda as the “King of Oils” & is the most used oil throughout this medical system. It is a rejuvenating tonic for the hair, skin, nervous system, teeth & gums. Sesame oil has antibacterial properties, which help keep the mouth clean & healthy & it also nourishes the gum line. Sesame oil has been used traditionally for oil pulling for thousands of years to reverse receding gums & support overall oral health.

Coconut Oil

Kalpavriksha is the Sanskrit term for coconut, & it translates to the “tree of life” or “the tree that meets all life’s needs.” You can eat it, apply it topically, drink it, & use it to improve brain function; its uses are endless! In our pulling oil, coconut oil facilitates calcium absorption, which helps develop strong teeth. It also stops tooth decay due to its anti-fungal action. Coconut oil contains the fatty acid lauric acid, which has antimicrobial properties; thus, it aids in reducing harmful bacteria in the mouth & reduces plaque. Using coconut oil for oil pulling is a beneficial way to keep the gums healthy, teeth white & eliminate bad breath.

Turmeric

The main active ingredient in turmeric, curcumin, provides antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, astringent & antioxidant properties to your dental care routine. The Journal of Contemporary Dental Practice confirmed what Ayurveda has known for thousands of years, that turmeric is a powerful ally to counterbalance signs & symptoms of plaque build-up & gingivitis. Other Western scientific studies have proved that turmeric helps to reduce pain associated with a toothache. Ayurveda also explains that turmeric can help whiten the teeth! The gorgeous golden color may indeed leave a yellowish stain on your fingers or clothes, but it miraculously helps to whiten & brighten the teeth.

Clove

Did you know our mouths have over 700 types of bacteria within them? Some of the bacteria are beneficial, while others are harmful. Rather than stripping away all the bacteria, as synthetic mouthwashes do, clove uses its intuitive wisdom to maintain good bacteria for a healthy mouth biome while eradicating harmful bacteria. It also has analgesic & anesthetic properties, which make it excellent at relieving pain associated with toothache & inflammation while maintaining overall oral hygiene.
