How would u use Virgin coconut oil?




*PRETTY WO


for hair growth


Answer
You get more benefits having fresh coconut milk and btw they are all VIRGIN, than applying them on your hair.

You read them online, were they trying to sell you products? Are they bloggers, posting links to their products, too?

Beauty products don't make hair grow. Eating is for growing, how does hair products GROW HAIR, lashes, and make them thicker?

You really are what you eat. If you're eating all the healthy foods from Mother Nature - not made by man or woman or supplements from GNC, your hair, nails, teeth, and the rest of your body will benefit too. You get all your vitamins & minerals from your diet.

There are more hair oil on the shelf now, than 30-40 years ago, and it's because it is a billion dollar business! There are more hair loss now, too, than 30-40 years ago!

There are many hair oil brand out there, man-made oil, none is better than the other. It can very well even harm your hair, even causes hair loss, since you don't know exactly what kind of oil they say it is. In the lab, they add other ingredients that can prevent from spoiling.

It does NOT make hair grow, it does not make hair thicker, it does help keep the hair moisturized, until you wash them again, that's about all it does, they're not glue to fix split ends, prevent, or reverse the damaged hair. Anything else they say on the label, it is to attract your attention. It is a billion dollar business and they do not give money back guarantee for damaged hair or hair loss due to 'abuse'.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of Maharashtra is ready to go on record saying that most manufacturers in the Rs 3,000-crore Indian cosmetics industry are rampantly misleading consumers with tall claims. This affliction goes beyond hair oils. FDA has found that from face creams to soaps and other items of personal care, cosmetics companies are taking the general public for a ride. The industry, of course, sees the whole issue differently.

If you've straightened your hair in the past, it may grow slowly or none at all.
Google: "Foods for Healthy Hair" - Your hair may be the fastest-growing tissue in the body but, unlike the skin, it cannot repair itself. That is why getting the right balance of vitamins and proteins is imperative. Don't expect to look like you've stepped out of a hair commercial the day after you've changed your diet. It is likely to take at least three months before you actually see tangible results.

Growing healthy hair doesn't come from a bottle or pills and hair products do not speed hair growth. Any hair oil, is another form to keep hair moisturized, nothing more. If you're in HS, your hair & nails should be growing normally, and as healthily as possible, since you're eating healthy foods. But when hair isn't growing as fast, it's because they've been tampered with: chemicals, hair straightening, etc. .

Does Palm Oil have the same nutritional benefits as coconut oil?

Answer
The two oils are different from each other, but they have a similarity in that they both have saturated fatty acids that make up around half of their fatty acid content. The palm oil, when refined by pressing, will show a red color. This comes from the beta-carotene and lycopene and if it is not heated much, will carry these healthy molecules into the food and our diets. In some developing countries this source of beta-carotene can supply molecules for the body to make Vitamin A which is needed to avoid blindness in children.
Palmitic acid is the most common fatty acid in palm oil. It has 16 carbon atoms. Lauric acid is the most common in coconut oil, with 12 carbon atoms. Both are saturated, meaning that they have all the hydrogen atoms attached that are possible. This provides a ready source of energy production in the body because when these bonds are broken, the energy released can be stored in the body. These bonds are similar to those found in sugars. So the fatty acid metabolizes in a similar way.
Saturated fatty acids seem to have a stiffer structure. Longer chain saturated fatty acids are found in meats. Studies have shown that eating larger amounts of these fatty acids of the longer type are likely to increase the amount of LDL cholesterol in our western diets. So they are not recommended.
These studies were not done with coconut oil or palm oil, so the conclusion that their shorter chain fatty acids are just as dangerous is not well supported.
Both palm oil and coconut oil can be beneficial to your diet. Personally I find that the coconut oil is great for cooking. We used the palm oil more for salads. It can stain clothes from the red molecules contained.
Palm kernel oil is a third oil used. It has a similar amount of lauric acid, so it more closely resembles the coconut oil in use.
Dog studies indicate the two thirds of the heart's energy come from fatty acids. So we need to consume them in order to provide energy for our hearts.
