Coconut Oil to the rescue

I've hopped onto the coconut oil bandwagon.

This is miracle oil. Really. I feel like I can use coconut oil for everything. Right now I rub some on before taking a shower and it's done wonders for my skin in this dry cold winter. It's been great for my sandpaper elbows and my cracking knuckles. It's good for chapped lips, taking makeup off, and helps repair hair damage. It smells so good and feels even better.

I went from using Coconut oil topically to using it when cooking. It's great as a butter supplement. I use it to grease pans and steam with my veggies. It's also even better when you put it into smoothies! Apparently Coconut oil has many health benefits. It helps kill viruses, bacteria, and fungi. It reduces your cholesterol and helps prevent Alzheimer's disease. It's been shown to increase energy and help you loose weight. Like I said, it's a miracle oil.


Tonight I vouch for coconut oil. Try it. I keep a jar of it in my bathroom and another jar in the kitchen. Two thumbs way up.

  1. I have recently heard about the numerous things people are using this for. I could hardly believe it. Have you heard of oil pulling? It's the "it thing" now to improve your overall oral health by the sounds of it - and sounds like coconut oil is the best to use. Seems SO strange to me, but if it's one of the things you plan to try - let me know!
