Coconut Oil: A Real Power House

Coconut Oil: A Real Power House

Coconut Oil

One of the few foods classified as a “superfood”, coconut oil has a unique combination of fatty acids which can have a very positive effect on your overall health.

Coconut oil is high in healthy saturated fats that are different from other fats in your daily diet. The saturated fats in coconut oil can actually help you burn fat and also improve your brain power by providing it with quick energy. They also can help reduce your risk of heart disease by raising the good HDL cholesterol in your blood.

The Science

Most fatty acids are called long-chain triglycerides whereas the fatty acids in coconut oil are medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). When consumed, MCTs go straight to the liver where they are used as a quick source of energy or turned into ketones.

Research shows that ketones can have powerful effects on the brain and can also treat epilepsy, Alzheimer's and other brain related conditions.

Health Benefits of Coconut Oil

Burn Away Unwanted Fat

The MTCs in coconut oil can increase how many calories you burn daily.

Kill Harmful Microorganisms

The fatty acid in coconut oil is made up of 12-carbon lauric acid. When digested, lauric acid forms a substance called monolaurin. Both lauric acid and monolaurin can kill harmful pathogens like staphylococcus aureus and fungi like the yeast Candida albicans which is a common cause of yeast infections in humans.

Reduce Your Appetite

The fatty acids in coconut oil can help you lose weight overtime by reducing your appetite.

In a nutshell, coconut oil is a superfood with many applications.

Health Benefits of Garlic

Lower Lung Cancer Risk

One study conducted by Jiangsu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention in China showed a 44% lower risk of developing lung cancer by people who ate raw garlic at least twice a week during a 7 year study.

Lower osteoarthritis levels

Studies have proven the effectiveness of allium vegetables in lowering osteoarthritis levels. Women with diets rich in allium vegetables had lower levels of osteoarthritis. Examples of allium vegetables include garlic.

Powerful Antibiotic

Garlic contains the compound Diallyl sulfide, which studies have proven to be 100 times more effective than two popular antibiotics in fighting the Campylobacter bacteria.

Lower High Cholesterol and High Blood Pressure

In a study conducted by Ankara University,  23 volunteers, all with high cholesterol (13 of them also had high blood pressure) took garlic extract supplements for 4 months and were regularly checked for blood lipid parameters, as well as kidney and liver function. At the end of the 4 month study, their high cholesterol levels were reduced along with their high blood pressure levels.

Because it is a source of the flavonoid quercetin, garlic contains antibiotic properties that empower it to fight colds, stomach viruses, and yeast infections.
