Coconut Oil: Why is it special?
This video explains the Super Positive benifits of Coconuts as a part of your diet. Coconuts are considered a SUPER food . I use this on my body everyday, shave with it, and use it as a hair conditioner. I LOVE it in my food! It tastes great in smoothies, to get that ‘rich + creamy’ flavor. I fry with it, use it as a high heat oil in cooking. At the dinner table: Add a little (Himalayan) salt + turmeric to your coconut oil and you have a butter replacement that is actually super good for you and tastes great!
Coconuts are amazing fats; The centrifuge is the best type of coconut oil by far (for Lauric acid content which is part of the magic of the coconut). Good oils are missing in our diets of today. This is an excellent fatty oil that is RAW.
How the Body Uses Lauric Acid
When lauric acid is present in the body, it is converted into monolaurin, a monoglyceride compound which exhibits antiviral, antimicrobial, antiprotozoal and antifungal properties. It acts by disrupting the lipid membranes in organisms like fungus, bacteria and viruses, thus destroying them.
