oh and one more Great thing I've noticed! It really does give you an energy boost in the morning. I am NOT a morning person and it often takes me a good hour to slowly wake up and feel human. But now my routine has been: get up, brush teeth, oil pull, then go on with my day and I've noticed that the rest of my morning goes smoothly. I'm awake, I'm focused, and energized. Again, this is so weird to me! I can't imagine that sitting with oil in my mouth for 10 minutes can do that, but it does.
