Used in a sentence: "No -- this is not a post recalling the ExxonValdez spill or anything of that nature (that would be oil 'pooling') ... but is instead an age-old remedy that is picking up speed as an oral health miracle cure ... and this kind of oil pulling is as simple as swishing your mouth out with oil each morning."
It's well established that the state of your mouth is related to your overall well-being ... and so this technique "works" by drawing out the bacteria into the oil (which, of course, you're not to swallow).
I checked around the house and all I could find was bacon grease ... so I'm hoping that a) that has the same effect and b) that I resist the temptation to ingest that bacony goodness.
Fingers crossed ...
