You and Your Family Deserve the Finest Pure Extra Virgin Organic Food-Grade Coconut Cooking Oil.
Why should you be using coconut oil, rather than any other oil? Because coconut oil can:
- Help you reduce weight, or maintain your present ideal weight
- Reduce the risk of heart disease
- Prevent disease and routine illness with its powerful antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal agents
- Increase metabolism, and promote healthy thyroid function
- Boost your daily energy
- Rejuvenate your skin and prevent wrinkles
In short, after unjustly getting lumped in the "no-fat" craze of past decades, coconut oil is now getting the respect it deserves as not only the healthiest oil you can consume, even superior to olive oil (which contains trans-fats), but as one of the most nutritious of all foods.
You should be absolutely certain, however, of the quality and effectiveness of the coconut oil brand you choose. There is wide variance in the types of coconuts and the manufacturing processes used. These have a major impact on the quality and effectiveness of your coconut oil.
Why is Hippocrates Coconut Oil Superior to Other Brands?
Hippocrates pure extra virgin coconut oil meets all of the requirements in the chart below. Meeting such high standards is not easy. You should not settle for anything less if you want to experience all of the health benefits of coconut oil, without exposing yourself to unnecessary health risks.
The superiority of Hippocrates extra virgin coconut oil does not stop there, though. The fresh coconuts used to make the oil (not "copra" or dried coconuts like most oils) are grown in rural Fiji, and are untainted by urban pollution.
A Delicious Way to Prevent Disease, Lose Weight, and Increase Energy
During the "no-fat" craze of past decades, all saturated fats were deemed bad, as something to be avoided. Knowledge was already in place to the contrary, but as often happens, perceptions - pushed by industries such as corn oil and soy oil companies - overshadowed science. And coconut oil, far more nutritious and beneficial than corn, peanut, soy, safflower and other oils, nonetheless got tossed into the "no saturated fat" overgeneralizations and lunacy.
What you didn't hear is that saturated fats are: 1) necessary for human health, 2) not the primary perpetrators of weight gain (grains and refined sugars are), and 3) categorized in three classes, of which the medium-chain class can actually help you lose weight and increase metabolism.
Coconut oil's saturated fat is of the medium-chain fatty acid variety. These MCFAs are digested more easily and utilized differently by the body than other fats. In short, while other fats are stored in the body's cells, the MCFAs in coconut oil are sent directly to the liver where they are immediately converted into energy. So when you eat coconut oil, the body uses it immediately to make energy rather than store it as body fat. Because this quick and easy absorption puts less strain on the pancreas, liver and digestive system, coconut oil stimulates the metabolic system and is excellent for those with thyroid problems.
Since coconut oil will actually speed up metabolism, your body will burn more calories in a day. This will contribute to weight loss, and you'll have more energy. Meanwhile, studies have shown the opposite for unsaturated fats: they cause hypothyroidism and lower metabolic rate.
Perhaps even more important, virgin coconut oil is rich in lauric acid, a proven antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal agent that is beneficial in attacking viruses, bacteria, and other pathogens, and building the body's immune system.
The lauric acid in coconut oil is used by the body to make the same disease-fighting fatty acid derivative monolaurin that babies make from the lauric acid they get from mother's milk.
Finally, coconut oil contains no dangerous trans-fats, which are found in vegetable oils (including olive oil), margarine, shortening and more. Trans-fats can lead to clogged arteries, heart disease and diabetes, and should be avoided.
The Many Uses of Coconut Oil -- Cooking and Eating, Skincare, Massage and More
Hippocrates extra virgin coconut oil has a pleasant coconut aroma and taste. Uses include:
-
In place of other oils (margarine, butter, shortening) for all cooking needs, as it is a stable cooking oil. (Of course, you should never burn any cooking oil.) As an ingredient when juicing or making smoothies.
-
In salads, or even by the tablespoon. (Many people consume 30ml or more per day.)
-
As an excellent massage oil.
-
As a moisturiser and skin lotion for healthier, youthful skin.
For skincare, using coconut oil as you would any lotion is ideal. It prevents destructive free radical formation. It can help to keep the skin from developing liver spots and other blemishes caused by aging and overexposure to sunlight. It helps prevent sagging and wrinkling by keeping connective tissues strong and supple. The oil is absorbed into the skin and into the cell structure of the connective tissues, limiting the damage excessive sun exposure can cause.
Coconut oil can bring temporary relief to the skin, and aid in healing and repairing. It can have lasting benefits, unlike ordinary lotions. It can help restore a youthful appearance. Coconut oil can aid in removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, making the skin smoother. The skin becomes more evenly textured with a healthy "shine". And coconut oil can penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and strengthen the underlying tissues.
To obtain all of coconut oil's health and weight loss benefits, 30ml per day (or more)is recommended for adults.
