Description

The health benefits of coconut oil include improving heart health by increasing the HDL cholesterol levels, promotingweight loss, relieving symptoms of yeast infections, skinand hair care, improving digestion, and boosting immunity. The oil is not just used in tropical countries, where coconut plantations are abundant, but also in the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia. We are now rediscovering the wonders that this oil can create and it is again gaining popularity throughout the world.Increases levels of HDL CholesterolAccording to a report in the journal Health Publishing, coconut oil helps to increase the levels of HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) that aids in improving heart health. However, the report advised using coconut oil sparingly as the bulk of current findings conducted on coconut oil and its effect on cholesterol levels are based on short-term studies.Promotes Weight Loss by Burning FatResearch published in the journal Lipids suggests that coconut oil appears to be useful for promoting weight loss, particularly for reducing abdominal obesity.Improves Heart HealthThere are multiple studies that show coconut oil as one of the most beneficial fats for heart health. A 2016 review published in the Ghana Medical Journal found that 50 percent of fats found in coconut oil are medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), such as lauric acid. These acids are absorbed easily by the intestine and can be used by the body to produce energy. Further, the MCTs do not participate in the transport or biosynthesis of cholesterol.Promotes Healthy Hair Coconut oil is used extensively in the tropical, coastal regions for haircare. Many women apply the oil regularly for thick lustrous hair. This thick, butter-like oil helps in the healthy growth of your hair and gives a shine to those strands. A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Science found compared coconut oil to other oils like sunflower and mineral oils. Of the three, coconut oil was the only oil that reduced protein loss when used as a pre-wash or post-wash product. This held true for both damaged and undamaged hair. Due to low molecular weight, it is able to penetrate the hair shaft and prevent hair damage.
