Oil Pulling: Test Your Oral Microbiome!

Debbie Ozment, DDS, MS Season 1 Episode 159

An ancient form of mouth cleansing, Oil Pulling is worth checking out!  You have nothing to lose by trying it for yourself!  It is simple, inexpensive, and has no known side effects - what a deal!  I’m doing my own personal  experiment over the next month and will be Oil Pulling using Virgin Coconut Oil with a few drops of Nigella sativa (Black Seed Oil).  I will be evaluating the benefits via a before and after saliva test from Bristle Health. To order a Bristle Test to evaluate your own oral microbiome, simply go to www.BristleHealth.com  and use the discount code:  VITALITY10 for ten percent off.   Here’s the research paper that I mentioned in the podcast:  “Antiseptic mouthwash, the nitrate-nitrite-nitric oxide pathway, and hospital mortality:  a hypothesis generating review” https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7567004/#:~:text=Finally%2C%20Bescos%20et%20al.,healthy%20study%20subjects%20%5B74%5D
