COCONUT OIL AND HEALING CUTS AND WOUNDS It's a well-know fact that coconut oil had the ability to heal wounds. Once coconut oil is applied to a wound or infection it provides a natural chemical protective barrier against dirt, virus, and bacteria and as result promotes the healing of the wound. Coconut oil will also work well on bruises as it has the ability to repair tissue damages. For many years Asian countries have been well aware of the ability of coconut oil to prevent premature aging. This is mainly because of it's anti-oxidant capabilities. That goes a long way toward explaining why the regular use of coconut oil provides Asians with amazingly smooth, health skin, and shiny healthy hair. Picture by art.comArt.com - Prints & Posters! COCONUT OIL RELIEVES STRESS Coconut oil plays a major role when it comes to the prevention of stress. In many cultures, regular body and head massages with coconut oil have been found to reduce mental fatigue. HEART HEALTHY. It's no surprise that health research done on Pacific Islanders and many Asian populations whose diets are naturally very high in coconut oil has shown unexpectedly low rates of heart disease. In countries where regular coconut oil use is combined with a healthy diet much lower in saturated fats, it's easy to see why life expectancy is much greater. We are all products of our environment and diet is perhaps one of the greatest examples how what we eat in certain regions of the world can have such a huge impact on our lives.
That does not mean we have to fall into the trap and eat like everyone around us because it seems like the thing to do. It's all about making the right choices that are best for our health and well-being. NORTH AMERICAN FOOD CHOICES VERY POOR If the North American food choices are so great than why is obesity running rampant? The sad part is, it's not just obesity in adults, but also obesity in kids who often start out in life with the odds against them when it comes to healthy eating. Until they are old enough to make their own decisions, they pretty much have to go with the flow and eat whatever they are fed by the adults in their lives. What an impact it would have on the epidemic of child obesity and type-2 diabetes that is becoming far to prevalent in teens and pre-teens if saturated fats were removed from their diets. It would do so much for their health and well being if those saturated fats were replaced with excellent, healthy oils like coconut oil and extra Virgin olive oil. Combine healthy fats with a regimen of regular exercise and the face of health among North Americans in general would be altered for the better and obesity would be reduced dramatically.
