Price: GuruNanda wins per ml
No spin here. At $13.96 for 237 ml, GuruNanda costs about 5.9 cents per ml on Amazon.ca. Plant of Life is $19.99 for 240 ml, about 8.3 cents per ml. Per bottle, GuruNanda is cheaper.
Subscribe and Save drops Plant of Life to $17.99, or about 7.5 cents per ml. First time buyers can also use WELCOME10. GuruNanda still comes out lower per ml on the shelf.
Cost per session: Plant of Life wins
Here is the part most comparisons skip. The two labels ask for very different amounts. Plant of Life says about one teaspoon, around 5 ml. GuruNanda says pour 10 to 15 ml, and its own site says one 8 oz bottle lasts about four weeks.
Follow each label and a Plant of Life bottle covers about 48 sessions, around 42 cents each. A GuruNanda bottle covers about 16 to 23 sessions, around 59 to 88 cents each. If you use the same amount of either oil, GuruNanda is cheaper. If you follow the directions on the bottle, Plant of Life lasts longer.
Ingredients: different philosophies
Plant of Life keeps it short: organic coconut oil, organic peppermint oil and vitamin E as a natural antioxidant. Three ingredients you can read in one breath.
GuruNanda goes the other way. Its base is a fractionated coconut oil (listed as caprylic/capric/lauric triglyceride), plus seven essential oils and three vitamins. If you like a strong, layered mint with clove and oregano in it, you may prefer that. If you want fewer things in your mouth for five minutes, the shorter list wins.
Organic and alcohol free
Both are alcohol free and fluoride free. Only one is organic. Plant of Life lists organic coconut oil and organic peppermint oil on the label. GuruNanda's ingredient list on its site does not say organic for any ingredient.
Where to buy in Canada
GuruNanda's own store ships internationally only to Australia, Germany and South Africa, so Canadians buy it on Amazon.ca, where it is sold and shipped by Amazon.ca. Plant of Life is a Canadian brand that sells direct at plantoflifeco.com. Canadian orders over $49 ship free, flat rate shipping is $8, and delivery takes 2 to 5 business days. The store also offers a 30-Day Wellness Guarantee.
Who should buy which
Buy GuruNanda if: you want the lowest price per bottle, you already shop on Amazon.ca, you like a spicy multi oil mint, or you want added vitamins D3 and K2 in your rinse.
Buy Plant of Life if: you want organic ingredients, a three ingredient label, a smaller daily dose that stretches one bottle to around 48 sessions, and you like buying direct from a Canadian brand.
What to look for when buying
- Read the ingredient line, not the front label. "Coconut" on the front can mean virgin coconut oil or fractionated MCT oil.
- Check organic on each ingredient. Organic oils say so on the ingredient list.
- Compare cost per session. Divide the bottle size by the label dose, then divide the price by that number.
- Flavour you will tolerate daily. Simple peppermint and complex spice blends feel very different at minute four.
- Where it ships from. A brand that ships to Canada directly gives you its own guarantee and support.
FAQ
Is GuruNanda oil pulling organic?
The GuruNanda Farmed Mint (CocoMint) ingredient list on gurunanda.com does not label any ingredient as organic. Its base is caprylic/capric/lauric triglyceride oil, a fractionated coconut oil, with seven essential oils and vitamins D3, E and K2. If organic matters to you, Plant of Life lists organic coconut and organic peppermint oils.
Can you buy GuruNanda in Canada?
Yes, on Amazon.ca. The 237 ml CocoMint bottle was $13.96 CAD on October 28, 2026, sold and shipped by Amazon.ca. GuruNanda's own website ships internationally only to Australia, Germany and South Africa, so ordering direct is not an option for Canadian addresses.
Which lasts longer, Plant of Life or GuruNanda?
At each label's dose, Plant of Life. Its label says about a teaspoon, so 240 ml covers roughly 48 sessions. GuruNanda asks for 10 to 15 ml, so 237 ml covers roughly 16 to 23 sessions, and GuruNanda says a bottle lasts about four weeks. Use the same amount of each and they last about the same.
Is GuruNanda oil pulling alcohol free?
Yes. GuruNanda says its pulling oil is free of alcohol, fluoride and artificial preservatives. Plant of Life Pulling Oil is also alcohol free, with no fluoride, fillers, sulfates, parabens or artificial flavours. Neither burns the way an alcohol mouthwash can, which is why both are easy to use daily.
Do you rinse after oil pulling?
Plant of Life lists rinsing as optional and recommends flossing. GuruNanda suggests brushing right after you spit. Both brands say spit the oil into the trash, not the sink, and never swallow it. Then carry on with your normal brushing and flossing.
