Nucifera Virgin Coconut Oil

Virgin coconut oil is now known to contain a unique form of saturated fat that actually helps prevent heart disease, stroke, and hardening of the arteries as well as provide many other health benefits. The fats found in coconut milk are identical to a special group of fats found in human breast milk called medium chain fatty acids (MCFA's). MCFA's in virgin coconut oil are much smaller in size and don't require pancreatic enzymes for digestion. They are quickly absorbed and channeled directly to the liver rather than the bloodstream where they are used as fuel to produce energy. Because virgin coconut oil produces energy, it stimulates the metabolism which supports thyroid function. This thermogenic or metabolic effect causes the body to burn more calories. For this reason, virgin coconut oil can actually promote weight loss. Virgin coconut oil contains the most concentrated natural source of MCFA's available. Substituting virgin coconut oil for other vegetable oils in your diet will help promote weight loss.
