Benefits of Coconut Oil - Quick Read Version
This is a “quick-read” list of the benefits of coconut oil. This information is taken directly from “The Coconut Oil Miracle” by Bruce Fife, C.N., N.D. (2004).
Even though the items listed here may seem too good to be true, try using coconut oil for 6 months and see what happens. You will be amazed at what it does for you, however, like any other food or supplement, it is not a cure-all. Use common sense when it comes to medical issues and don’t neglect taking your supplements just because you are using coconut oil.
The following is a list of benefits:
Coconut oil is:
* antibacterial
* antiviral
* antifungal
* antiprotozoal
* antimicrobial
*48% Lauric Acid, 7% capric acid, 8% caprylic acid, 5% caproic acid - all antimicrobial acids
Microorganisms killed by Lauric Acid include 15 viruses and 9 bacteria, read the detailed information
version for that list
*resistant to free radical formation
Research and clinical observation has shown MCFAs (Medium Chain Fatty Acids), which are highly concentrated in coconut oil, may prevent a wide variety of diseases. These are listed below.
Coconut oil helps heal:
*bacteria and viruses that cause flu, herpes, bladder infections, gum disease & more
*heart disease
*yeast and fungus
*atherosclerosis and stroke
*chronic infection
*parasites
*dental issues
*food poisoning
*blood sugar symptoms (hypoglycemia and diabetes related)
*obesity, which contributes to 12 other conditions, see detailed version for list
*energy levels (boosts metabolism from 4-24 hours, this increases energy and vitality because boosted
metabolism rate protects from illness
*thyroid function
*connective tissue (supporting framework of body)
*cracked, bleeding, dry, flaky, thickly calloused skin
*staph, strep (see detailed version)
*blood blisters
*hemorrhoids
*psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis

Coconut oil does the following:
*revs metabolism up even more than protein, increasing thermogenesis
*lowers LDL and increases HDL cholesterol
*does not contribute to blood platelet stickiness (which leads to blood clots)
*resists free radicals and acts like an antioxidant
*prohibits germs from developing a resistance to it, capable of defeating even super-germs
*does not raise blood sugar

see detailed version for explanation of MCFA
*promotes younger looking skin
*can be used as skin lotion, hair conditioner and lip balm

Do i Have to wash out the olive oil?
Iam Cherry
If i put in olive oil in my hair, do i have to wash it out or could i just leave it n there?
Answer
Leave the olive oil in your hair for as long as you like, I recommend a few hours to a day. to get the best benefits of the oil put a warm towel or cap on your head and process it with a hair dryer for about 30 mins.
You do need to wash it out, gently mist your hair with water, Do not saturate it and then massage a gentle shampoo into your scalp and hair,
EDIT:
Olive oil treatments are good for hair, medical experiments have shown that Avocado, Coconut and Olive Oils penetrate the hair adding proteins and strenthening the hair.
The person above me who says it does nothing, knows nothing. Research around the net, it's very good for you
leave for 30 secs- min then rinse with warm to cold water, if hair is still oily shampoo again and follow with a conditioner.
