Wonderful Coconut Oil Benefits
You Probably Have Never Heard


How many coconut oil benefits can you think of? Coconut oil benefits range from the ordinary to the extraordinary. No other oil can compare to its effect on your overall health, and that's a fact.

Many people call it, The Healthiest Oil on Earth, The Miracle Oil, The Drugstore in a Bottle, etc. For thousands of years, tropical communities have used this divine oil in key areas of their lives like cooking, disease cure and prevention, hair and skin, etc. My relatives from the province still use it, the old-fashioned way.

The benefits of coconut oil on your health will always be the strongest case in point. Coconut oil (CNO):

  • Lowers your blood cholesterol levels
  • Reduces your risk of having heart disease
  • Stimulates your metabolism
  • Promotes normal thyroid function
  • Helps you loose and maintain your ideal body weight
  • Kills viruses, bacteria, fungi and protozoa
  • Has natural antioxidant properties
  • ..... and much, much more .....

The Truth is Out

After decades of being maligned in the name of profits, coconut oil health benefits are no longer buried and hidden from you. Thanks to the undying efforts of honest researchers, best-seller books, countless testimonials and of course the internet, you can now take advantage of this wonderful gift from nature.

Powerful Antimicrobial

Coconut Oil BenefitsCoconut oil is nature's richest source of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA) or medium-chain triglycerides (MCT). The MCFAs of coconut oil are predominantly lauric acid. The same lauric acid found in human breast milk that protects babies from all kinds of diseases.

It's such a potent antimicrobial that even the seemingly invincible HIV virus (AIDS) falls prey to coconut oil. San Lazaro Hospital here in the Philippines was the site of the first clinical test of coconut oil on HIV patients. The results prove that coconut oil does have an antiviral effect and can beneficially reduce the viral load of AIDS patients.

MCFAs are routinely used in hospitals to treat severely malnourished babies and are commonly used in baby formulas. MCFAs are also administered to help the elderly deal with their digestive problems.

Release Your Energy

Unlike almost all other dietary oils and fats, MCFA-rich coconut oil does not primarily circulate in your bloodstream. It's sent straight to your liver through a portal vein to be immediately converted into energy, instead of body fat.

Heart Friendly

Contrary to popular and erroneous belief, coconut oil doesn't promote atherosclerosis. It is not atherogenic. In fact, it even assists in increasing good cholesterol while decreasing bad cholesterol. A multitude of studies confirm CNO to be neutral at worse in the development of heart disease.

Natural Antioxidant

Simply using coconut oil in your food preparation or by the spoonful can take several years off your age. This humble tropical oil has exceptional antioxidant characteristics that stop excessive free-radical activity and promotes younger-looking skin and hair.

Free radicals are oxygen molecules responsible for tissue damage and disease. The only way to counteract them is with antioxidants. A sufficient supply of antioxidant nutrients will help you a lot in achieving functionally younger skin.

The health benefits of coconut oil are pretty wide in range as you can see. You don't even have to ingest it to reap its blessings. Using coconut oil for skin treatment and protection is best achieved through direct or topical application.

Nature's Hair Conditioner

One of my favorite grandmothers died at age 91. Everyday she would apply virgin coconut oil (VCO) on her hair and massage it gently on her scalp. She had the most beautiful long black hair I have ever seen until the end.

Sebum secreted by sebaceous glands prevent your hair and scalp skin from drying and breaking. Yes, it also eliminates dandruff and get this. Sebum contains the almighty MCTs too, just like coconut oil. The benefits of virgin coconut oil are both impressive and far-reaching.

What's that you say? More coconut oil benefits? You got it.

Clean Fuel

This one has tremendous socio-economic rewards. Fuel from coconut oil. Yes, as in fuel for your vehicles and industry. Researchers here in the Philippines have been exploring coconut oil's fuel-source properties since the early 1970s.

Think about it for a minute. Diesel fuel from a source that can be grown and that produces extremely low levels of pollutants. Don't be surprised to find coco-biodiesel the next time you visit your favorite fuel station.

The List Goes On.....

We can write a whole series of books enumerating the numerous coconut oil benefits waiting for you to take advantage. It's rightfully called Your Drugstore in a Bottle because of its amazing health benefits.

Coconut oil benefits your health like no other Fat can. It is from nature, perfectly safe and most of all, remarkably effective. It's the only oil experts know of that can do all of the above and much, much, much more.
