Benefits Of Coconut

Coconut is useful on the skin & has been used for the treatment of eczema, dry skin, psoriasis, & dermatitis. It's surprisingly used for weight loss. It is tasty & sweet to eat as well. Coconuts are rich in fiber, vitamins & minerals. The health benefits of coconut oil are incredible. They can kill bacteria, viruses, fungi & yeast in the body. They can also improve the digestive system because of the lauric acid contained in them. Coconuts have been proven to have other remarkable physiological effects, including as an anti-histamine, anti-septic, immune system booster and anti-cancer agent. People with diets high in coconuts have a lower rate of heart disease & cancer. The metabolism boost from consuming coconut oil in place of more conventional cooking oils can last for up to 24 hours, so calories can burn at a higher rate throughout that period. It is for this reason, that more and more weight loss success stories are emerging from people using coconut oil as a key part of their weight loss programs. Enjoy :)
Coconuts are filled with benefits!
