A lot of people ask, "Is it safe to oil pull while pregnant or nursing?" Before reading, please keep this in mind: before you do anything, check with your healthcare provider. But in general, oil pulling is a very gentle form of detoxing.
HOW DOES OIL PULLING WORK?
Any toxins pulled out of your mouth during oil pulling leave your mouth when you spit out the oil. This process 'skips' any toxins from taking the 'normal' path through the bloodstream. Even so, the bloodstream does not crossover into breastmilk.
