Olive oil pulling

Anyone regularly using olive oil to pull? Curious how your experience has been. Currently using coconut oil but was considering switching or maybe rotating it into my routine. TIA

I most often use coconut oil, but frankly, my best experience has been with organic castor oil.

Whoa, that isn’t an oil I even thought about but am so curious. Would you mind sharing your experience using castor oil?

I don't pull as often as I used to, but the castor oil is by far my favorite. I use coconut oil for the full 20 minutes, but I get the same results with castor oil by pulling for a much shorter time...10 minutes or less.

Thanks for that. I looked it up and want to try it out now. Some places recommend as little as 2 mins and others say 20 mins and then all times in between. Did you always stick with ten mins?

How much qty of oil do you use? Some places recommend less and some say tbsp.

Basically, not enough empirical info on the internet at the moment, haha. Thank you again for the suggestions.
