Weight Loss with Virgin Coconut Oil:
Oh So Remarkably Effective


Weight loss with virgin coconut oil (VCO) is one super healthy approach, not to mention, potentially life-changing. No other dietary oil or fat in the world can help you shed off unwanted body fat like VCO can. It's The Best Fat To Lose Fat.

Not All Fats are Alike

Coconut oil (CNO) is 92% saturated fat. Saturated fat, like lard and beef tallow, and 92 percent at that, you might ask? Yes, but there's more you really should know.

Unlike almost all other oils and fats, coconut oil is predominantly medium-chain triglycerides (MCT). Corn oil, safflower oil, soybean oil and many others are basically long-chain triglycerides.

You see, MCTs don't travel in your bloodstream like LCTs do. MCTs go quickly to your liver to be changed into fuel or energy. No wonder athletes use MCT supplements from coconut oil to boost their performance.

If you're leading a sedentary lifestyle right now, it could be because you simply don't have the energy to begin with. With all the junk food around weighing down on you for one, you're losing the battle of the bulge.

Metabolism Booster

Weight Loss With Virgin CoconutIn the beginning, I used to take a spoonful of VCO before going to bed. I couldn't sleep right away because as I soon found out, coconut oil stimulates metabolism and keeps it stimulated or elevated for at least 12 hours. It appears I had trouble sleeping because my body was energized by the MCTs. I felt like getting up.

Hypothyroidism or low thyroid function is associated from simply being overweight to obesity. Virgin coconut oil can increase your metabolic rate which then sends all the right signals for your thyroid gland to increase its activity.

The Right Oil + Your Cooperation

If you're using LCT oils such as soybean and canola oils, switching to coconut oil alone can shed off up to almost 40 unnecessary pounds annually. This was discovered by a team of researchers at McGill University, Canada.

Now don't get me wrong. Weight loss with virgin coconut oil is powerful but not automatic. Without your cooperation, VCO will not make you lose weight magically. No one food can single-handedly do that, including coconut oil. If someone tells you otherwise, be very very careful. Together with virgin coconut oil, discipline and a lifestyle change will ultimately win the weight loss war.
