" We know certain oils can do wonders for your skin and hair. And, coconut oil is right up there. One thing we love about it is that it can make you feel sexier by taking you on a mental tropical vacation. But now, we&amp;#039;ve discovered that it can also freshen your breath. Hmm. Natural beauty expert, Molly Beucher, says that coconut oil can help you fight gum disease by getting rid of plaque and gingivitis. Another benefit of this treatment is that it&amp;#039;s all natural and doesn&amp;#039;t have any of the extra chemicals in your favorite store bought mouthwash. However, the oil costs about $10. Okay. I&amp;#039;m all for taking an unconventional approach to beauty, but this I will not do. Why? It requires you to take a spoonful of coconut oil and swish it around in your mouth for 15 freaking minutes. Uh, who&amp;#039;s got that kind of time to spare? But what do you think? Would you do it?
