The oil is separating from the other ingredients. I used organic coconut oil, the redmund clay, truvia, grapeseed extract, peppermint essential oil and the baking soda. I'm at a loss. I will keep stirring it and try to keep the ingredients merged.

My sink hasn't clogged with that, by then most of the oil is gone anyways. I've actually read the oil pulling helps TMJ actually! A lot of people with TMJ were nervous about it, but I read a few things and it helped it. Also it takes about 1 minute or so for the oil to dissolve. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00669962153783752985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1695769737759418257.post-10204400748936864412014-03-23T00:34:49.404-06:002014-03-23T00:34:49.404-06:00I know I should figure this out on my own, but wha...I know I should figure this out on my own, but what do you do with what is on the toothbrush after you spit in the trash? I'm thinking rinse as usual in the sink since it's not that much and let the water run for a bit.<br />I'm also wondering if the oil pulling might aggravate my TMJ. I don't chew gum for that reason. How long does it take to get the oil dissolved in your mouth?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00669962153783752985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1695769737759418257.post-64560146176614795212014-03-15T11:56:07.129-06:002014-03-15T11:56:07.129-06:00Most toothpastes are made with baking soda.
