Coconut oil pulling

Nala • Refer to me as "Queen 👑"
Has anybody else tried this? 
I've been doing it for a week and I don't know if I'm psyching myself into believing that is working or not 
I do have some visible differences 
My teeth are whiter
Gums are a very bright pink ( before it was like a dark hot pink)
Alkaline levels are balanced( I've been doing other things for this though) 
So basically I have other things that have gotten in the way of me knowing if it's the pulling that works as well as others say. 
Either way I love it. 
Have you gotten any differences with this?
