Lets take a moment to appreciate one of nature's best kept secrets... Coconut Oil! This stuff is amazing! Not only is it a fantastic addition to your diet, as it is the BEST oil to use for high temperature cooking (it doesn't oxidize and turn into free radicals like some other oils), but its also fantastic for your skin, hair and nails. There are literally hundreds of uses for this hard-working natural product, which I can't even begin to list here. Check out this helpful infographic to get a general sense of its awesomeness, and for more detailed information, read this article.
How do I use coconut oil? I use this organic extra virgin coconut oil for cooking, in smoothies, as a moisturizer for my face and body, as a deep conditioning hair treatment, and as a base in homemade body products (scrubs, lotions, lip balm, etc). It is truly a super hero! You may have trouble finding it in the grocery store, but it is readily available at many health food stores. This is a MUST TRY!
