Can Oil Pulling Be Done by Children?

Posted By Joanne (Mesa, Arizona) on 02/14/2013

So me and my son both suffer from sinus infections a lot. I get it and it usually stays with me for most of the year (I feel like I'm just used to feeling like crap and think I'm always gonna feel this way). I'm totally gonna try the oil pulling, just trying to find the right oil. My question... Can oil pulling be used by kids??? my son is 7 years old and I'm wondering if I should have him do it as well?! ?! ?!

Yes, it can definitely be done by children. My daughter started oil pulling when she was 7 and she loves the flavor of the sesame oil that we use and sometimes even asks if she can oil pull. She doesn't do it everyday as I do but multiple times a week. The only issue she has is when she has to rinse with the baking soda and salt water but she still manages.
