REMOVE EARWAX SAFELY
Any physician will tell you that your ears naturally cleanse themselves and require no additional treatment to keep them free of excess wax buildup. If you speak to audiologists about maintaining your ear health, they will undoubtedly warn you against using cotton swabs or any other type of instrument to remove possible buildup because, when inserting anything small into the ear’s canal, you might damage the internal ear. So what can you do to get rid of excess wax without using over-the-counter products that contain potentially harmful chemicals?
Coconut oil provides a safe, all-natural, and effective option that not only delivers results, but does so without unwanted side effects. Additionally, coconut oil’s health-boosting properties act to kill bacteria, fungi, viruses, and microbes that can easily turn into ear infections. Try this quick-and-easy process to clean your ears:
- Warm the oil to a liquid consistency.
- Pour 1⁄2 to 1 tablespoon of coconut oil into your ear, and allow oil to stay there for 10 minutes.
- Rinse with warm water. This allows the excess earwax to break down and flow out, without any damage to the ear. Coconut oil, with lauric acid’s germ-fighting power, also provides protection from infection or irritation.
Some people produce more earwax than others, and many have tried over-the-counter remedies that include flushes, aquatic pulsation, or manual excavating processes. These treatments can alleviate buildup initially but quickly create a problem when the body, in reaction to the earwax removal, produces even more wax, causing more buildup. Coconut oil eliminates the need for any instruments, synthetic treatments, or expensive medical procedures to cleanse your ears.
