The endless benefits of coconut oil
Coconut oil is one of those things that just can't run out in my house and I always have to have at least 2 jars of it. Not only is coconut oil a wonderful butter substitute but it has amazing health benefits as well. I was first introduced to it from a friend who suffered from eczema and said that the oil soothed her red inflamed skin better than any conventional steroid the doctor gave her, without the harmful side effects. I don't have eczema but I have dry sensitive skin and even the the most gentle lotions irritate me. I thought I would give coconut oil a try after much frustration with lotions and creams and I love it, a little goes a long way. Coconut oil isn't only a great lotion, when taken internally it can regulate blood sugar levels so its very useful to diabetics.
Coconut oil also contains lauric acid
a microbial which means it can treat things like fungal infections, ringworm, herpes, candida, and the list just goes on and on. The health benefits of this oil are astonishing. If your going to try some out you should always make sure to pick out the best so go for organic cold pressed extra virgin coconut oil.
I hope you all love it as much as I do.
