Have you ever heard of oil pulling? I decided to try it myself, and I thought these little coconut oil chews would make the process even more convenient. I figured that adding in a few drops of essential oils would only add to the benefits.

Gather your oils. I used 5 drops of lemon essential oil and 2 drops each of frankincense essential oil and Thieves Essential Oil Blend. Use whichever essential oils you like. You can easily double or triple this recipe depending how much your molds will hold.
** PLEASE NOTE ** Don't be fooled by clever marketing. Not all essential oils are created equally. Make sure you're not wasting your money on fake or altered essential oils (even if they're labeled as “pure essential oil”). Don't miss our explosive report outlining the dirty little secrets of the essential oil industry to ensure you're not wasting your money on brands of oils that legally mislead you through deceitful marketing practices.
1. Melt your coconut oil (about 1/4 cup) in a glass measuring cup placed in a pot of barely simmering water. Keep it moving, and as soon as it starts to melt a little, turn off the fire.
2. Stir to incorporate the unmelted bits. You don't want it to get too hot. Just heat it until it's barely melted and pourable.
3. Stir in your essential oils.
4. Pour into your molds. You can use ice cube trays, mini cupcake tins or I used a candy mold I had lying around.
5. Stick the mold in the freezer for 5-10 minutes, or until the coconut oil is solid again. Let it sit on the counter for a minute or two before you turn the mold over and gently tap to release. If you do this straight out of the freezer, they'll break into pieces and they won't be nearly as cute. I know this from experience! If this happens, you can always re-melt and do it all again, which I did. ?
Store your coconut oil chews in a jar in the fridge.
Once a day, pop one in your mouth and let it melt. Swish it around for 10-20 minutes. Spit it out in the trash (not in the sink – it can clog your pipes) and brush your teeth afterward, preferably with a natural toothpaste. I highly recommend Young Living's Thieves toothpaste!
