Coconut oil contains lauric acid, which has anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial effects. Coconut Oil releases certain antioxidants which can rupture the cell wall of microorganisms and destroys them. The lipid player of bacteria gets attracted to the oil leading to entrapment of bacteria.

You can also incorporate essential oils into the process to enhance oil pulling benefits. The best coconut oil to use is cold-pressed, unrefined Extra Virgin Coconut Oil.
