Makeba Oil - Heal your mouth with oil pulling

$25.00

4oz jar

Makeba Oil is a holistic solution for restoring your mouth's health through oil pulling. Oil pulling is an old Ayurvedic practice (usually done with sesame or coconut oil) that involves swishing oil in your mouth for 5–20 minutes. Our oil is a unique blend of unrefined coconut oil and other herbs, crafted to improve your oral microbiome.

The oral microbiome is the community of microorganisms living in your mouth. It includes bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoa, and archaea. This complex ecosystem plays a vital role in both oral and systemic health. Maintaining a balanced oral microbiome is crucial for preventing dental problems, supporting overall health, and even impacting digestion and brain health.
