10 Benefits of Organic Coconut Oil

Awesome post… I actually add coconut oil to my smoothies. but i had no idea that it was sooo healthy for you. Thanks!

Thank you for spreading the word! I use coconut oil in place of butter (I can’t do dairy) as well as a facial moisturizer.

Great blog post!

I learned about coconut oil a few years back and now prefer it because of the way it cooks as well as the knowledge I’m boosting my immune system. Anything I cook with coconut oil turns out a gorgeous colour. It’s amazing for roasted potatoes and I put a dollop in the cooking water when I’m making rice. I use it as much as possible. My husband didn’t want me to cook with it for his food because he was worried it would change the flavour of the food but it doesn’t taste like coconut at all.

I’m curious how much of this one should try to use a day. And other than cooking and smoothies any other clever uses? I tried taking 1 tbsp per day for a while, I didn’t really notice any difference however I’m open to trying again- the benefits are hard to pass up.

A relative’s son had HORRIBLE A topic dermatitis (a bad case of eczema) all over his body, but particularly on his feet, which swelled, turned red, scabbed, felt as rough as the texture of a rock and would often crack and bleed. He also had HORRIBLE cradle cap that was very thick.

I slathered him in coconut oil. I put it on the top of his head and all over his body, paying special attention to the “HORRIBLE” areas and making sure I coated them several times. I put socks on him so he didn’t wipe off the coconut oil.

The next morning, I combed the cradle cap out of his head. It never even bled and it NEVER CAME BACK! The eczema was ALMOST GONE! I was a slight pink color and only felt like sand paper. I slathered him two more times during the day and before he went to bed.

The next morning, the eczema was GONE! It does come back if you don’t continue to use the coconut oil as a moisturizer though.

Healthy Niche,

Try frying shrimp (with skin or without) to a golden color. It takes only a minute and you will never eat shrimp any other way!

Health food restaurants in the South East love it. Best seller for the last 3 years. If you happen to travel in Florida Canaveral area visit ” Grill’s Restaurant”, they use organic virgin coconut oil in all their cooking.

Thanks soooooo much for the recipie booklet…really great!….Peace and blessings!

I think you article is very informative, it is surprising who many people still don’t know the benefits of Organic coconut oil.
I have been using organic coconut oil for about a year. I put it on my toast, make all my curries stews, lasagna in fact I use organic coconut in place of all the other oils I used to use, except I still make my salad dressings with Organic virgin olive oil. I also use it on my hair and skin.

Hello
I’ve been suffering from eczema all my life and I just can’t stand it anymore. I’ve been using VCO for nearly a month now and I don’t see improvement ;( although VCO is supposed to be a great moisturiser I find that it doesn’t moisturise my skin well (eczema parts) I’m wondering if should take it internally instead. Do you think 1 tbsp will help cure me? Please help I’m desperate 🙁 thanks

Hi, Fantastic article. The benefits of using Coconut Oil has really taken off over the past couple of years. I started imported Organic Virgin Coconut Oil from Sri Lanka after my visit to the country in the aftermath of the 2004 tsunami to help with emergency relief work.

That is a good brand, yes.

This is so good I have sjogrens an autoimmune disorder and this knowledge is so good thank you

forgot to add that I always considered myself an abnormally sweaty person. But despite the fact that this recipe is for deodorant and that storebought deodorant is also an antiperspirant, my armpits sweat *much much much less* now that I use this recipe instead of buying deodorant.

I have Sjogrens and I “swish” the coconut oil in my mouth for about 15-20 mins twice a day and then spit it out into the garbage. This has helped me tremendously with my dry mouth symptoms and also helps to remove bacteria that comes along with the dryness of the mouth from Sjogrens.

what is the best or what brand of coconut oil to use

Coconut oil is very useful in recipes. It is much better than other oil. It is very healthy and tasty as compare to other oil. It is also known for its various different uses in the kitchen.

Good Morning
My name is Ellis and I work with Ninja Goat Nutritionals. Once I read your article, I found great interest in some of your ingredients and knowledge about coconut oil. I would love to tell you about my business and how I make butter coffee.

Ninja Goat Nutritionals makes a product called fatCoffee, which is a quick and easy way to make butter coffee anywhere, anytime- and it’s made with 100% grass fed-butter and organic coconut oil.
