According to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coconut_oil Coconut oil , or  copra oil , is an edible oil extracted from the kernel or meat of mature coconuts harvested from the coconut palm ( Cocos nucifera ). It has various applications. Because of its high saturated fat content, it is slow to oxidize and, thus, resistant to rancidification, lasting up to six months at 24 °C (75 °F) without spoiling. According to:  http://eatdrinkpaleo.com.au/your-ultimate-guide-to-coconut-oil-benefits-types-uses/ The oil is made up of around 90% saturated fat, 6% monounsaturated fat, and 3% polyunsaturated fat. Unlike other highly saturated and unsaturated fats, coconut oil is mostly made up of medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs). The saturated fat content makes coconut oil very heat-stable and enables a long shelf life.  It is well-known for its healing, anti-inflammatory properties and its metabolism-boosting medium chain tryglyce...

1. Dry and Damaged Hair Treatment   For starters,  coconut oil  can work wonders for dry, damaged, and frizzy hair. The fatty acids soften your hair, and trap the moisture inside. The best way to apply it is to rub a small amount between your hands then apply it to your hair from roots to ends. Do this technique one section at a time, and comb through. The longer you can leave it in the better! Wrap your hair in a towel for at least 15 minutes and then follow with a gentle shampoo. If you are feeling bold, consider sleeping with it (cover your head with a shower cap to avoid getting coconut oil all over your pillow) and pursue your regular shower routine in the morning.  It'll leave your hair feeling smooth and silky!  2. Makeup Remover  Coconut oil is a great way to break down any waterproof mascara or heavy eye makeup. Use a cosmetic cotton pad and rub some coconut oil into it. Then continue to use it as a makeup remover, getting at any waterp...

There are many life-enhancing uses for coconut oil but one of the most fun results takes place in the bedroom. You’d use it in there for the same reasons that you’d use it in other rooms in the house: It’s yummy, it’s organic, it’s all natural, and it stops things from sticking. I’m talking about sex, people! (haha) Not only does coconut oil feel, taste, and smell good when used to add a little flavor to your sex life, but it also happens to be good for you. It’s moisturizing and, as noted above, it’s anti-fungal and anti-bacterial, which means it does a great job at preventing yeast infections. As with any oil, coconut oil shouldn’t be used with latex condoms because it will weaken the latex, resulting in tears and breaks.

Coconut oil milling process  or technologies are classified into two major types: the dry and the wet processes. The  coconut oil processing  starts with copra as the raw material is termed as the dry process, while the method that uses fresh coconuts as starting material is generally called the wet process. Dry processing of meat for coconut oil milling process involves the conversion of coconut meat into copra prior to expelling and refining. This process is however done off-farm, in an oil mill. At the mill, the copra undergoes the following steps: Cleaning: Copra is cleaned of metals, dirt and other foreign matter Crushing: Copra is broken into fine particle sizes Cooking/Conditioning: The crushed copra that has about 5-6 percent moisture is passed through a steam-heated cooker. This brings the temperature of the copra to the conditioning temperature of about 104oC (220oF). At the conditioner, the copra is maintained at about 104-110oC (220-230oF) for about 30...

Walking through the grocery aisles, one thing has become clear: coconut oil has come to officially dominate the store. Since when did everyone swap out the usual oil suspects and go nuts for coconuts? This is not to say there is anything inherently “wrong” with choosing to consume coconut oil. Coconut oil is tasty and can be part of a healthy diet when consumed in moderation. The problem with  coconut oil  is that it is being touted as this magical, cure-all substance that can do anything from soothing unrelenting frizzy hair to curing chronic diseases. Further, a  survey  found that there is a discrepancy in the perception of coconut oil as a “health food” between the American public and those involved in nutrition. The  American Heart Association  recently published a scientific advisory report that recommended against consuming coconut oil [1]. This was met with scrutiny from various media outlets and healthy living figures on social media. So, let...

What is Virgin Coconut Oil? Virgin coconut oil is the oil extracted from coconuts without the application of heat. It is rapidly gaining popularity throughout the world in comparison to ordinary coconut oil and for a good reason. Virgin coconut oil differs from regular coconut oil in significant ways. These differences mainly lie with the source (more specifically, the physical form of the source), the method of extraction, and its subsequent benefits.The main difference between regular and virgin coconut oil lies in the processing of their extraction. The former is extracted by cold compression or cold milling of  Copra  (another name for dried Coconut kernels) with a moisture content of around six percent. The latter is extracted from coconut  milk  obtained from fresh coconuts. Thereafter, using processes such as  fermentation , churning (centrifugal separation), refrigeration, and the action of enzymes, the oil is separated from the water or mo...

1. Coconut oil helps with weight loss. While it may seem counterintuitive, coconut oil is actually a "weight-loss-friendly" fat because it contains fatty acids that have strong effects on your metabolism. It helps you  burn more calories ,  reduce your appetite , and  reduce BMI and waist fat . Coconut oil is different from other fats that you may eat. While most foods contain long-chain fatty acids, coconut oil has mostly medium-chain fatty acids, which are metabolized differently than the longer ones. Medium-chain fatty acids go directly to the liver after being digested, where they can be immediately used for energy or transformed into ketone bodies. Additionally, studies have shown that medium-chain fats are not stored as efficiently as other fats. 2. Coconut oil helps improve heart health. Coconut oil has been shown to  increase levels of good HDL cholesterol  and decrease levels of bad LDL cholesterol. This means it will lower your risk of ...

In a word, coconut oil is a body-friendly foodstuff that is heart-healthy, great for oral health, and other health benefits. Structurally, coconut oil is taken from coconut kernels. It's tasteless and colorless, and is available for consumer usage in refined and unrefined coconut oil.

Advocates call the coconut a " superfood ", but the evidence doesn't completely support that name tag - at least not yet. Composite-wise, coconut oil contains a cornucopia of fatty acids and proteins that hold antioxidants and provide myriad health benefits. It's rich in so-called medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA's), which are, in great part, comprised of Caprylic acid, Lauric acid and Capric acid. Approximately 60% of all coconut oils are comprised of the above three fatty acids, while 90% of coconut oil fats is comprised of heart-healthy  saturated fats . The latter figure is a high one, and not one that is recommendable to many doctors. For example, 14% of olive oil calories come from saturated fat, and 63% of butter's calories come from saturated fat. As a rule, nutritionists love MCFA's, noting that, among other advantages, they're easily digestible and since they're processed by the liver, MCFA's are more effectively and quic...
