Coconut Oil
A few months ago my mom started talking about
how she had started using coconut oil for cooking.
She told me that it was very healthy and asked me
what I thought. I of course told her I thought she
was crazy. I told her that coconut oil was very
unhealthy..its a saturated fat for gods sake!
Everyone knows that's bad for you...
As usual I started looking into it so that I could prove
to her that I was right and she was wrong. And as
usual I was wrong and she was right.. Yes! I said it!
You were right! I will stop telling you your crazy
everytime you tell me something...well maybe..
I have since started cooking exclusively with
coconut oil, I use it as a moisturizer and I use it to
style my hair. This may sound crazy, but it works. I
have never looked better and I feel great! This stuff
is amazing. It may not be for everyone, but I love it
and I wanted to share it with you.
Remember quality counts. In order to get the
benefits you need to buy unrefined, extra virgin,
organic coconut oil. It should smell like coconut
and have a coconut taste to it.

Let’s take a look at the healing properties of coconut oil:
* Coconut oil is antiviral, antifungal (kills yeast too) and antibacterial. It attacks and kills viruses that have a lipid
(fatty) coating, such as herpes, HIV, hepatitis C, the flu, and mononucleosis. It kills the bacteria that cause
pneumonia, sore throats, dental cavities, urinary tract infections, meningitis, gonorrhea, food poisoning,
pneumonia, and many, many more bacterial infections. It kills the fungus/yeast infections that cause candida,
ringworm, athletes foot, thrush, jock itch, diaper rash and more.
* Coconut oil is called the "low fat" fat. It actually acts like a carbohydrate in that it is quickly broken down in the
liver and used as quick energy. It is NOT stored like other fats. It boosts one’s energy and endurance. Many
athletes use it blended into their drinks. It also supports thyroid function and increases your metabolism (great if
you want to lose weight).
* Coconut oil improves digestion and absorption of fat soluble vitamins, minerals (especially calcium and
magnesium), and amino acids. It improves the body’s use of blood glucose and improves insulin secretion and
absorption (great for type II diabetes). In fact, many diabetics (type I and type II) use it to reduce their symptoms.
One’s risk of diabetes decreases with regular use of coconuts and coconut oil. And as we already mentioned,
cooking with coconut oil does not create any harmful byproducts.
* Coconut oil helps the body heal and repair faster. It aids and supports immune function, protecting us from a
variety of cancers.
* Coconut oil, contrary to much hubbub, is good for your heart. It keeps our blood platelets from sticking together
(and causing dangerous clots). Regular users of coconut oils have a much lower chance of atherosclerosis
(clogging of the arteries), arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), and strokes. Coconut oil can lower your blood
pressure.
* Coconut oil is a natural antioxidant. It protects the body from free radical damage and prevents premature aging
and degenerative diseases.
* Finally, coconut oil is the best massage oil on the planet. What it does to your skin, you simply have to witness. It
forms a barrier against infections, softens and moisturizes your skin, and prevents wrinkling, sagging, and age
spots. It promotes healthy hair and complexion, protects from any damaging UV rays.
