I have seen oil pulling mentioned numerous times in articles and books, but never knew exactly what it was.  When I saw this book and read the fact that is it used for dental health, I thought I'd investigate further.Oil pulling is an ancient practice used in India for thousands of years. It clears bacteria from your mouth preventing tooth decay and gum disease.The author, Ashley Stone goes through the oil pulling process in detail, including a chapter on the benefits of the different kinds of oil normally used.  I was surprised that along with gum health, oil pulling also helps whiten the teeth.  There is a whole chapter on the other health benefits that can be attributed to oil pulling.While it seems a simple process, it appears that one has to be prepared to practice and build up to the recommended number of oil pulling minutes.In all, this was an interesting and informative book that leaves me wanting to give oil pulling a try.  There are many health benefits to be gained from such an ancient and simple system!
