A Combination of Sesame and Coconut Oils Infused with Ayurvedic Herbs

• Supports overall oral health and hygiene

• Moisturizes the mouth
• Freshens the breath

Holding oil in the mouth and gently “swishing” or “pulling” it back and forth through the teeth is an excellent way to support overall oral health and hygiene. Based on ancient Ayurvedic healing techniques, this simple practice has been receiving quite a bit of attention in the media lately as a way to remove plaque, whiten teeth. Daily Swish is a combination of sesame and coconut oils infused with Ayurvedic herbs traditionally used to support healthy teeth and gums, including the renowned formula triphala, which is clinically shown to support a healthy mouth.^{1, 2, 3} The herbal oil is flavored with a refreshing blend of peppermint and spearmint essential oils that leave your mouth feeling sparkling clean. Incorporate oil pulling into your daily routine and experience the fresher and healthier mouth that more and more people are raving about.

Suggested Use:
Place approximately 2–3 teaspoons (10–15 ml) of oil in the mouth and gently swish back and forth, occasionally pulling the oil through the teeth. Continue for at least a few minutes and up to twenty minutes. The longer you swish the greater the benefits. When finished, spit out the oil (do not swallow) and rinse the mouth with warm water. For best results, make this a regular part of your normal oral hygiene routine.

Twenty minutes may seem like a lot, but most find the investment of time worth it. Many people find it easy to fit into their routine by swishing while they shower, are getting dressed, or simply relaxing.

Keep out of the reach of children. If more than one dose is accidentally swallowed, seek professional advice immediately.

Benefits of Tongue Cleaning:

• Reduces the toxins and bacteria on the tongue that cause bad breath

• Enhances the sense of taste

• Improves digestion

• Gently stimulates the internal organs

• Helps eliminate unattractive coating on the tongue

We’ve all heard about the importance of healthy teeth and gums, but what about the health of the tongue? After all, the tongue is the first major organ in the body to come into contact with food. Undigested food particles that linger upon the tongue—often manifesting as a white, thick coat—can prevent the tongue from fully tasting flavors. This coating can also cause unwanted toxicity within the body, bad breath, and poor oral hygiene.

According to Ayurveda, cleaning the tongue every morning is an important part of the daily oral hygiene routine, along with regular brushing and flossing of the teeth. Gently scraping the tongue with a tongue cleaner can effectively reduce the bacteria in the mouth that cause bad breath. Our specially designed tongue cleaner is made in the U.S.A. with premium quality stainless steel.
