10 REASONS to CONSUME coconut oil EXTRA VIRGIN
1-antioxidant action – Collaborates in reducing the production of "free radicals"! This is mainly due to direct action of vitamin-E present in "Extra coconut Fat Virgin" composed of 8 fractions of this vitamin; 4 tocotrienols (alpha, gamma, delta and theta) and 4 tocopherols (alpha, gamma, delta and theta).
Contrary to other fats, mainly in relation to fat, polyunsaturated oils coconut decreased vitamin E needs of the organism.
2 – CHOLESTEROL-help in reducing bad LDL and BOMBARDMENT – prevents even if oxide. On the other hand, promotes the increase of HDL-good cholesterol helpingso in the prevention and treatment of brain diseases and cardiovascular diseases.
3 – Collaborates in the process of WEIGHT LOSS – easy absorption, the coconut fat is the best source of MEDIUM CHAIN AS MOST, does not require enzymes to your digestion and metabolism. In the liver, these triglycerides quickly turn into energy, thus not deposited in the body. So she is considered "termogênica", i.e. able to generate heat and burn calories. This property, together with the ability that the coconut fat has to stimulate the thyroid gland, increases basal metabolism and, consequently: LOOSE WEIGHT!
4 – improves the immune system-acting in the prevention and fight against micro-organisms – bacteria and fungi, reestablishes the energy "stolen" by these agents. Consequently improves the absorption of nutrients by increasing all defenses of the organism. The coconut fat has the highest concentration of Lauric Acid, among all vegetable fats.
In other words, is the same fatty acid present in breastmilk!
Lauric acid in the body is converted into monolaurin supplement that has actions to combat numerous infections. Most recently in 1992, Isaacs and coworkers confirmed all of these studies.
Still in relation to the lauric acid, see the Declaration of the Dra. Mary Enig, one of the world's leading authorities in relation to studies onfats, mainly with regard to EXTRA VIRGIN COCONUT FAT, read LAURICO ACID. This article was published by it in September 1995 in "Indian Coconut Journal":
"The MONOLAURIN SUPPLEMENT, whose precursor is the LAURIC acid (C-12), destroys the lipid membrane that encloses viruses and also bacterial, yeast and fungi dormant." He added: "from the saturated fatty acids, lauric acid has more anti-viral activity than Caprylic acids (C-10) and myristic acid (C-14). The action assigned to MONOLAURIN SUPPLEMENT is that it solubiliza (dissolves) fats to ... involves involving viruses, thus destroying their protective covers ". (These numbers and the C-means the amount of carbon atoms of fatty acids).
Among hundreds of other scientific papers, today the COCONUT FAT EXTRA Virgin is able to help combat a multitude of bacteria, yeasts, fungi and viruses, such as measles, herpes, vesicular stomatitis virus and Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epistein Bar virus, hepatitis C virus (HCV), AIDES (HIV), h. pylori, Giardia, Candida, cryptosporidium and other intestinal parasites.
5 – regulates BOWEL FUNCTION – both in cases of constipation or diarrhea, even under the coconut fat components Act normalizing bowel functions. At the same time the lauric acid by monolaurin supplement, helps eliminate pathogenic bacteria, protecting and (enemies) favorecendthe growth of "friendly flora".
6 – Thyroid-thyroid functioning Improves, taking action yet "anti-aging" – studies for more than 30 years have proved that the coconut fat stimulates the function of the thyroid gland. The proper functioning of the THYROID GLAND causes specifically evil COLESEROL-LDL, through enzymatic process, produces anti-aging hormones, PROGESTERONE and DHEA PREGNENOLONE: (dehydroepiandrosterone). All these substances are necessary in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, senility, Obesity, cancer and other chronic diseases related to age.
7-COSMETIC Action – most commercial creams and lotions is consists predominantly of water. These preparations are rapidly absorbed by the skin moist and dry and wrinkled. Once the water enters the skin, the fabric is expanded like a balloon with water, then the wrinkles disappear and the skin becomes softer. However, all this is temporary. In a few hours the water is absorbed and taken to the bloodstream and as far as dryness wrinkles reappear. Besides not solving the problem of hydration and wrinkles, these creams or refined oils are almost always oxidised, bringing with him a mountain of free radicals, which aggravate increasingly elastic tissue of the skin making it more aged.
The coconut fat can be applied directly to the skin and evenin hair, working with a "condiocinador" natural, for it is just massage your hair with 1 tablespoon of bath before dessert. In addition to moisturize your skin and do not contain free radicals, prevents wrinkles on a true anti-aging action. This is the "lubrication" of the skin, allowing the nutrients from the blood before it.
8 – Dermatological Action – beyond the bactericidal power on the skin, can be used as scarring of wounds, insect bites, relief in Burns and, especially in contact dermatitis and eczema, as well as in the treatment of herpes and candidiasis.
9 – Diabetes – controls the compulsion for CARBOHYDRATES – as well as foods high in fiber help maintain stable levels of insulin in the blood, therefore facilitating the lives of DIABETICS, the coconut fat provides a sense of satiety even bigger and above all not stimulates the release of insulin, thereby contributing to decrease the "craving" compulsion for carbohydrates, mainly sweets. Contrary to other polyunsaturated oils that hamper the entry of insulin and nutrients into the cells, leaving them starving "literally" coconut fat "opens its membranes", not only allowing the insulin and glucose levels back to normal, but also improving is your nutrition, restoring normal levels of energy.
10 – Chronic Fatigueand Fibromyalgia-until recently these two entities were not recognized by traditional medicine. Only now after a big media disclosure of clinical improvement of thousands of patients, is that the traditional "stablischment", gave the hand your dreams, even be recognized by the FDA, when released a medicine to combat this evil.
These two entities often get confused and there are authors who claim that both have the same etiology. However the vast majority of the medical profession still insists on saying that these two disorders are actually a masked depression and should therefore be treated with antidepressants.
While in Fibromyalgia PAIN symptom predominates, in Chronic fatigue syndrome, fatigue is the tonic. In other words:
CHRONIC FATIGUE (synonym) FATIGUE =
FIBROMYALGIA = (synonym of) PAIN
The Fibromilagia can be seen as a process that often plagues the rheumatic, neck, lower back, shoulders, neck, upper thighs, knees, buttocks, elbows and upper chest. It is important to remember that the painful phenomena can deal with any part of the body.
Both the pain and the morning stiffness is more pronounced in the morning, which often is accompanied by: insomnia, headache, depression, mind embotada, disorientation, digestive changes, tonteiras, panic attack and rednessthe facial.
The immune system of an affected person, is often hypersensitive to many factors, making the individual hiperalérgico to many foods. These symptoms can be exacerbated by other allergies, lack of sleep, stress and acute infections.
Among the causes associated with these two pathologies we highlight: Herpes Zoster, Epstein-Barr Virus (the virus of Kiss), Infectious Mononucleosis, Flu and Ili, nutritional deficiency, poisoning by heavy metals (mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium, fluoride, chlorine, among others), finally the deficiency of mineral salts and the eternal challenge of man, the stress!
Today, the coconut fat EXTRA – Virgin, is perhaps one of the best solutions to combat chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia.
The medium chain fatty acids, Lauric, in particular can eliminate viruses such as Herpes and Epstein-Barr virus, which is believed to be the major responsible for these entities. Fighting and helps eliminate Candida, Giardia and Amoeba. Still eliminate a lot of viruses, bacteria and even some worms that may be related to these two pathologies.
The vast majority of doctors believe that there is only one kind of virus or bacteria responsible for Chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia, but yes, the combination of various actors and factors. Under these conditions the coconut fat actsneutering a huge range of these infectious agents. Improves the immune system, eliminates the stress State suffered by him. In the end, by increasing our metabolism and recover our full power, we feel "younger", with ability to perform our dreams!
Remember that there are no contraindications to its use, when in doubt, consult your doctor.
