Coconut oil is all the rage right now - and for good reason! This superfood packs a lightly sweet coconut flavor and an array of health benefits so long that people simply cannot resist adding it to their diets. I've been a fan of coconut oil for some time and now and have really enjoyed the many healing properties it offers. Today, I'd like to share just a few of the best benefits with you and encourage you to try this sweet oil for yourself!
Skin Sensation
Coconut oil is deeply moisturizing and rich in minerals and vitamins. It is so light that it quickly absorbs into the skin to a deep level and leaves the skin looking and feeling amazing!
Coconut oil can be applied directly to the skin in very small amounts just like your usual moisturizer. Try using it after a gentle cleanse before bed and when you wake up you'll be thrilled at how your skin looks! You can also apply a thin layer during the day to help keep your skin smooth and soft and to help block the sun!
Brain Food
Coconut oil is packed with essential fats that support proper brain function, memory, and sharpness. The fats that coconut oil uses are processed differently in the body than usual fats so they aren't the kind that cause weight issues as we'll discuss next.
Try adding a bit of coconut oil to your morning coffee, tea, or smoothie to seriously upgrade the healing benefits you get!
Weight & Appetite Management
Taking coconut oil help your body feel full longer so that hunger isn't popping up due to habit. If you are looking to cut back on how much you eat or change your relationship to food, adding coconut oil to your diet may be the perfect way to help make it happen!
In addition, coconut oil has such an amazing flavor that it can help curb a sweet tooth!
Try coconut oil for yourself and let me know what you think!
