Coconut Power

Is coconut a super power food? It certainetly been making a name for itself as a miracle product. After reading more on the subjet on wellness mama.com and femme-fabulous.com, i have decided to give it a try. Cost efficient and eco-friendly, coconut oil can be used in numerous ways for overall health, beauty and wellness. Here are my picks on how I will incorporate the oil into my routine.

Hair Mask for a serious deep conditioning treatment. It works! It bring shine, repair damaged and brittle strands while combating frizz. Check out how here! Use a coconut mask once a week for luscious locks. One of my new must.

Heal infections because coconut oil is rich in lauric acid, a fatty acid with antimicrobial, antifungal and antibacterial properties, so it works wonders on cuts and burns. It can also help treat athlete’s foot and other fungal.

Eye Make-Up Remover to get rid of your daily mascara and eye makeup. Wipe away with a cotton ball, it will gently hydrate and condition eyelashes and nourish the delicate skin under your eyes. Also known to help fight puffiness and wrinkles.

Exfoliating Scrub if you mix coconut oil with brown sugar for an allover body scrub. Nourishing exfoliater with holiday scent...

Cooking and baking might be a challenge because we are so use to olive oil but I feel like trying it as a healthier alternative then butter in some baking recipe. Why? Because it's been found to help prevent heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and many other degenerative diseases. Also strengthen the immune system and improve digestion. Ouhaa!

It's really important to buy the best coconut oil, a pure virgin organic version with no additives. It shouldn't be heated or highly processed in any way, especially because what we put on our skin and scalp gets absorbed into our skin. Unlike the hydrogenated versions found in processed food, this uniquely curative elixir has been show to have countless health benefits.You can buy Pure Virgine Coconut Oil at Organic Food and Cafe or Down to Earth, around AED27 a jar.
