For years coconut has taken the blame for containing saturated fat. Recent research however, is proving that certain types of saturated fat are actually good and can help your body burn fat and loss weight.
Coconut contains healthy fats called medium chain fatty acids. From one of the articles of Dr. Josh Axe, he gathered that from the study published in the International Journal of Obesity, it is found that MCT's increase lipid (fat) oxidation which means coconut will burn up excess calories and help you lose weight. Coconut has also been shown to reduce cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, and LDL cholesterol levels. Through these study, coconut contains powerful fat burner, improves digestion, builds muscle, recovery from food poisoning, rids the body parasites, breaks down kidney stones, lessen the symptoms of glycemia.
If coconut oil is taken at the same time as omega-3 fatty acids, it can make them twice as effective, as they are readily available to be digested and used by the body...Dr. Josh Axe said.
Athletes have found that coconut oil enhances their performance and hydration. Coconut liquid has the same 5 electrolytes in the same levels as human blood: sodium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and potassium, making it a great superfood contender. They aren't just good for burning fat, they are also great for building muscle.
Coconut also improves digestion as it helps the body absorb fat-soluble vitamins, calcium and magnesium. A powerful aid to your immune system, can fight off bacteria, viruses and fungal overgrowth such as candida.
With these extensive coconut benefits, I remember now why my late mother who had been poisoned from the food that a family friend (believed to be) gave her when I was still 5 years old. That person came to our house with a certain kind of traditional food which is only made once every year during Lenten season. My late mother, who is new in that particular food was very eager to eat. After about how many minutes, she gargled and as she threw the water from her mouth, there was an amount of blood in it.
She thought that the blood came from her gums, he gargled again and did the same thing. She was surprised that fresh lumps of blood followed. We all panicked because the blood keeps coming out from her mouth. That person who gave the food immediately left so that person did not know what happened. However, it was believed that that person knows how to harm people through dark force "magic" (or we call it in tagalog, mangkukulam).
Thinking that that was the real reason, we asked the help of our neighbor who have "coconut oil". There are roots soaked in that oil which our neighbor believes it can cure any food poisoning done by those who practice the doings of dark forces (mangkukulam).
In no time, our neighbor rushed to our house and immediately gave my mother about 3 table spoons of coconut oil. At that time, not to exaggerate, but the amount of blood that my mother lose is so much that she looked pale and very weak. Upon swallowing the coconut oil, she lied down, slept and slowly recovered. It took her about two weeks to recover because of the large amount of blood that she lose. Being far from town where there is a hospital, and we can't afford to pay for hospital bills, my mother just rest at home until she was fully recovered.
With what I found out now from the article of Dr. Josh Axe, that the benefits of coconut oil is really true. Thanks to the researchers, scientists, and medics who tested and keep on doing tests to find benefits of plants that is useful to all of us...the best natural remedy.
