Certified Organic Coconut Oil: A Wealth of Health Benefits
Coconut oil is not just for suntans anymore. This nutritious tropical food offers a wealth of health benefits for metabolism, skin, teeth, hair, digestion, immune health, energy levels and much more.
Coconut oil is extremely versatile and can be used in cooking, baking and raw food creations as well as natural beauty and body care recipes for the whole family.
Certified Organic Virgin Coconut Oil by NOW Foods is a cold-pressed, virgin, unrefined coconut oil made from fresh coconuts (cocos nucifera) and is non-GMO Project Verified.
About this Certified Organic Coconut Oil:
Part of the reason coconut oil is so nutritious is because it is rich in medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). These are easily-digested, healthy fats that are readily used for energy - not stored as fat. Additionally, they're more heat-stable than other fats, making them more suitable for cooking.
MCTs (lauric and caprylic acid)are also antimicrobial and antifungal, which can help protect and defend both the skin and the digestive system against infectious agents or bacterial imbalance.
Benefits:
- Rich in MCTs - these fats are directly absorbed by the intestines and used for energy. They may also improve nutrient absorption and protect against infectious agents.
- Helps moisturize and soften skin
- May help improve skin elasticity
- May be used as a massage oil
- May be used for oil pulling for oral health
- May be used as an alternative to other oils for cooking and baking. Has a high smoke point and no trans fats
- May be used as a makeup remover
- Gentle and suitable for sensitive skin and babies
- Naturally anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, antimicrobial and antifungal
- May boost metabolism and energy
