Benefits of coconut oil

Using coconut oil, health can be greatly improved by ingesting and using it topically....from cancer to digestion to high blood pressure to skin care. Lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid is present (just to name a few) in this sometimes misunderstood product because of all the fat content....however learning that Medium Chain Saturated Fatty Acids (Triglycerides) are assimilated well by our bodies, which makes up of about 40 % of this oil, along with Capric Acid, Caprylic acid, Myristic Acid and Palmitic properties of various percentages. Another exciting fact is that it is great for cooking....can be added to most foods either as flavoring or use as butter on bread, great mixed in with peanut butter, on toast, melted on popcorn, unlimited ideas for use.
By consuming coconut oil we can accually help repair and heal our bodies, especially the arteries reducing risks of heart deasese. Coconut oil is not easily oxidized and works in the body as an antioxidant helping to resist free-radicals.http://www.merrittouch.com/
