Good information on coconut oil and virgin coconut oil
An important thing that has provided mankind with many useful materials throughout history is the palm tree. The most important materials that come from the palm tree are coconut oils. Coconut and palm kernel oils were considered very healthy oils in Ayurvedic medicine nearly 4,000 years ago.
Sanskrit medicine discovered that coconut oils had almost the same health effects as breast milk. Human milk was thought to work as a kind of antibiotic after eye surgery. But the latest research has shown that there is a similarity between coconut oil and human milk: its fat or lipid content.
So believe me that the medium chain fatty acids and monoglycerides found mainly in these two coconut oils and in breast milk have miraculous healing power. Another great advantage of them is that they have many useful properties and no toxicity or negative side effects.
These tropical oils, coconut oil and palm kernel oil will be the new oils of the next millennium.
I will try in the rest of this article to show you some great benefits of virgin coconut oil.
Virgin coconut oil has great antiviral, antifungal, and antibacterial properties. It contains lauric acid which is very good in preventing problems caused by viruses and bacteria.
Virgin coconut oil is also good for increasing metabolic rate. Provides a good source of energy. Adding coconut oil to your diet will have the result of burning more calories due to increased metabolism. Also, if you are following a weight loss plan, adding a little coconut oil is also very good.
Coconut oil is also very good for the skin. Using it will make your skin soft and smooth. It also has a good chance of preventing cancer, premature aging and skin wrinkles.
These are just some of the benefits and effects of coconut oil. There are many more that have not even been discovered yet. This means that the oil industry must move quickly to modernize in making value-added products from these oils that will contribute to more vigorous and healthy effects.
