1. Reduced Plaque and Bacteria: Oil pulling may help reduce the buildup of plaque on teeth and inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria in the mouth, potentially leading to fresher breath and improved oral hygiene.
2. Gum Health: Oil pulling could contribute to healthier gums by reducing inflammation and promoting healing of gum tissue. This may help prevent gum disease and gingivitis.
3. Whitening Effect: Some individuals report that oil pulling with coconut oil can help whiten teeth over time by removing surface stains and discoloration.
4. Improved Oral Hygiene: Incorporating oil pulling into your oral care routine may complement regular brushing and flossing, providing an additional method for cleaning hard-to-reach areas in the mouth.
5. Natural and Safe: OLDGOA Virgin Coconut Oil is a natural and safe alternative to commercial mouthwashes that may contain artificial ingredients or alcohol, making it suitable for those seeking a more holistic approach to oral care.
6. Moisturizing Effect: Coconut oil has moisturizing properties that may help soothe dryness in the mouth and alleviate symptoms of conditions like dry mouth syndrome.
7. Fresh Breath: Oil pulling with coconut oil can leave the mouth feeling fresh and clean, with a pleasant coconut flavor that many find enjoyable compared to the sometimes harsh taste of conventional mouthwashes.

It's important to note that while oil pulling may offer these potential benefits, it should not replace regular brushing, flossing, or professional dental care. Additionally, individual experiences with oil pulling may vary, and more scientific research is needed to fully understand its effects on oral health.

Goa is blessed with aboriginal breeds of coconuts as mentioned in old Indian texts. Aboriginal species of coconuts found in Goa are “Benaulim, “Calangute” and “Nadora” or “Nanora” which are one of the sweetest coconuts in the world. These coconuts are from serene, non-polluted rural coastal farms of Goa and conform to the standards of the EU and USA.

The local species of Coconuts in Goa are more nutritious as the tree only starts to give fruit after 15 years which gives coconuts a high level of minerals and nutrients. In other states, the coconut is of hybrid quality and gives fruits within 3 years. Being hybrid coconuts, these do not match with the nutrient content and properties of the coconut as per Ayurvedic and old Indian texts.

Goan coconut plantations need a boost because it is wholly organic and natural. We need to work to save these aboriginal breeds of Coconut.
