Description
- Coconut Oil is an excellent hair moisturizer, and has antimicrobial properties making it protective against dermatitis and dandruff. Coconut oil is used in many hair products.
- Coconut oil is nature's skin moisturizer, containing no harmful chemicals. Its antimocrobial properties also make it an excellent anti deodorant as it controls bacterial growth which cause body odor. These same properties make it useful for the treatment of acne, psoriasis and other dermatological conditions.
- There is some evidence that coconut oil may be preventative of Alzheimer's disease. No clinical studies have been carried out to confirm or disprove this property.
- Coconut oil contains no sugar but its medium chain fatty acids can easily be burned in the liver for energy. This makes it useful for controlling blood sugar levels and even from preventing the onset of diabetes. Caution: always consult a doctor if you have diabetes before using coconut oil as part of your diet as it puts extra load on the liver. Coconut oil has been demonstrated to cause weight loss in animals and clinical studies show it lowers blood cholesterol levels in humans. It has also been shown to increase energy expenditure and reduce fat levels in overweight men (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12634436?dopt=Abstract)
Sourced from the Philippines, Nutria coconut oil is the gold standard in coconut oil production.
Our coconut oil is cold pressed, meaning no heat is used in its production which might damage its precious molecular structure.
We ship it in a glass jar to ensure no toxic estrogen mimics seep into the product from its packaging. Estrogen mimics are thought to damage fertility and even cause cancer.
Nutria is paraben free, preservative free., and free of flavorings. It contains no additives of any kind.
