Just remember NOT to swallow the oil and spit it into the bin or you could block your sink.

Jay. 20-03-2015 08:22 AM
I'm going to try ordering some soon, I've been trying the past couple of days but kept forgetting about it.

Also about half way through I got a tickle in my throat and I needed to cough so badly, it's horrific but I made it through :'(

Well you put in more effort so what can I say :laugh:

Smithy 20-03-2015 11:23 AM
I spit mine in the sink with the water running :worry; I'll just turn the hot tap on so it stays melted when I spit

Jay. 20-03-2015 07:04 PM

Teeth whitening
 
Yesterday I met up with a friend who has just had that new teeth whitening procedure. Her teeth are now so white that it looks like she's got false teeth. She's really pleased with them and of course, I have enough tact not to tell her she looked like she was wearing dentures.

IMO whiter than white teeth do not look real.

What do you think about this new 'Hollywood smile'?

Niamh. 25-03-2015 09:04 AM
Yeah not a fan of the fake smile at all tbh. I have been doing that coconut oil pulling though to make them a little whiter :laugh:

Smithy 25-03-2015 11:03 AM
I've been doing it for 15 mins a night before I brush my teeth and I've noticed and improvement, I'm really happy :flutter:

Niamh. 25-03-2015 11:10 AM
Yeah, I've been doing it for 15 minutes in the morning and I notice an improvement as well

Josy 25-03-2015 11:16 AM
Coconut Oil 1 Haters 0 :hehe:

It's less yuck now the more I get used to it, waiting for it to melt at the start is still the worst part though

DemolitionRed 26-03-2015 07:21 AM
I've been doing the oil pull as well but I'm using sesame oil. Definitely noticing a difference

Jay. 26-03-2015 01:00 PM
I've been using cocowhite the past 3 days and they are whiter already :lovedup:

The article that DR posted on the first page says you can use a Sesame or Sunflower Oil but Coconut Oil is better, this section here :

Spoiler:

I Personally Prefer Coconut Oil

Traditionally, the Indians used other oils such as sesame oil or sunflower oil.

Oil pulling should work with pretty much any oil you choose, but I prefer coconut oil because it has many health benefits.

The Lauric Acid (one of the fatty acids in coconut oil) is also proven to be antimicrobial… it can kill bacteria, viruses and fungi (1, 2).

The taste of coconut oil is also fairly pleasant compared to other oils. I found it rather disgusting at first having my mouth full of oil, but I got used to it after a few days.

Kizzy 26-03-2015 01:49 PM
Ah right, I think it was cooking oils I'm thinking of it was said it's bet to use 3s rather than 6s :)
