Mix some easy-to-measure fats into your favorite shakes or baked goods with the rich, delicious goodness of coconut oil.
Most people aren’t aware of the benefits of coconut oil, MCT oil, and
ketosis. Coconut oil is a fat that has been really popular over the last
five or ten years. It is a saturated fat, which means it essentially
has a very stable temperature, allowing you to cook it at higher
temperatures and not rancidify the fat. Healthy saturated fats are
really important for optimal health.
If you don’t eat much coconut oil I’d encourage you to include
it in your daily routine. However, increasing (or adding) coconut oil can have
some negative, temporary effects. If you start eating too much too soon, you’ll
likely get an upset stomach, cramps, and diarrhea for a couple of days. So I’d
encourage you to add it slowly. The benefit definitely outweighs any
discomfort.
Benefits of Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is an abundant source of lauric acid (C12) and has many health benefits including ketosis, decreased cravings, boosted immune functions, weight loss, and enhanced brain health.
Coconut oil is high in natural saturated fats.
Saturated fats not only increase the healthy cholesterol (known as HDL)
in your body, but also help to convert the LDL “bad” cholesterol into
good cholesterol's by Increasing the HDL's in the body, it helps promote
heart health, and lower the risk of heart disease.
