Biohacking with Kate

(Tip 17 of 21 biohacking tips)

Swishing oil in your mouth for 15 minutes sounds… odd. But this ancient Ayurvedic practice is gaining major biohacking cred—and for good reason.

Oil pulling can help:

🦷 Remove toxins from your mouth
🌿 Reduce inflammation and bad bacteria
😄 Brighten your smile naturally
🧠 Support overall oral–brain health connection

🔬 Backed by More Than Tradition

Studies in the Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research show that oil pulling with coconut oil significantly reduces levels of Streptococcus mutans, one of the primary bacteria responsible for cavities and plaque buildup.

🌼 How to Try It Without Fuss

• Use 1 tablespoon of organic cold-pressed coconut oil
  
• Swish gently for 5–15 minutes (don’t swallow!)
  
• Spit into the trash—not your sink
  
• Brush as usual
  

Done consistently, it’s like a detox for your mouth—and your body will thank you.

With love,
Kate
