Short answer: Oil pulling is the act of swishing oil (usually Sesame, Sunflower or Coconut) in the mouth for up to 20 minutes to improve oral health. The basic idea is that oil is swished in the mouth for a short time each day and that this action helps improve oral health.
One of the side effects of oil pulling is a loss of appetite. While some claim they lose their appetite because they donât want to make their mouths dirty after going through 15 minutes of swishing the oil, there are others who claim that the entire process of oil pulling seems to dull their appetite.
