Coconut Oil Can Protect Your Skin, Hair and Dental Health
Another application is using it like mouthwash in a process called oil pulling, which can kill some of the harmful bacteria in the mouth, improve dental health and reduce bad breath.
SUMMARY: Coconut oil can also be applied topically, with studies showing it to be effective as a skin moisturiser and protecting against hair damage
Coconut Oil Can Increase Fat Burning
While some people think Fat or over weight is only a matter of calories, others (myself included) believe that the sources of those calories are important too.
It is a fact that different foods affect our bodies and hormones in different ways. In this regard, a calorie is not a calorie.The medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) in coconut oil can increase how many calories you burn compared to the same amount of calories from longer chain fats .One study found that 15-30 grams of MCTs per day increased 24 hour energy expenditure by 5%, totalling about 120 calories per day.
SUMMARY:The medium chain triglycerides in coconut oil have been shown to increase calories burned over 24 hours by as much as 5%.
Coconut Oil Contains Fatty Acids With Potent Medicinal Properties
Most fats in the diet are called long-chain triglycerides, but the fats in coconut oil are known as medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). What this means is that the fatty acids are shorter than most other fats.When you eat these types of fats, they go straight to the liver, where they are used as a quick source of energy or turned into ketones.
SUMMARY: Coconut oil is high in fats called medium chain triglycerides, which are metabolised differently than most other fats. These special fats are responsible for a lot of the health benefits of coconut oil.
Populations That Eat a Lot of Coconut Oil Are Healthy
However, in some parts of the world, coconut (loaded with coconut oil) is a dietary staple that people have thrived on for many generations.The best example of such a population is the Tokelauans, which live in the South Pacific.They used to eat over 60% of their calories from coconuts. When studied, they were found to be in excellent health, with very low rates of heart disease .Another example of a population that ate a lot of coconut and remained in excellent health is the Kitavans.
SUMMARY: Several populations around the world have thrived for multiple generations eating massive amounts of coconut.
Coconut Oil Can Kill Harmful Microorganisms
For example, these substances have been shown to help kill the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (a very dangerous pathogen) and the yeast Candida albicans, a common source of yeast infections in humans.
SUMMARY: The fatty acids in coconut oil can kill harmful pathogens, including bacteria, viruses and fungi. This could potentially help to prevent infections.
Coconut Oil Can Reduce Your Hunger, Helping You Eat Less
This may be related to the way the fats are metabolized, because ketones can have an appetite reducing effect .In one study, varying amounts of medium and long chain triglycerides were fed to 6 healthy men.The men eating the most MCTs ate 256 fewer calories per day, on average .Another study in 14 healthy men discovered that those who ate the most MCTs at breakfast ate fewer calories at lunch .These studies were small and only done for short periods of time. If this effect were to persist over the long term, it could help lead to reduced body weight over a period of several years.
SUMMARY: The fatty acids in coconut oil can significantly reduce appetite, which may lead to reduced body weight over the long term.
Coconut Oil Can Raise The Good HDL Cholesterol
By increasing HDL, many experts believe that coconut oil could be good for heart health compared to many other fats.
In one study in 40 women, coconut oil reduced total and LDL cholesterol while increasing HDL compared to soybean oil .
Another study in 116 patients showed that a dietary program that included coconut oil raised levels of the good HDL cholesterol .
SUMMARY: A few studies have shown that coconut oil can raise blood levels of HDL cholesterol, which is linked to improved metabolic health and a lower risk of heart disease.
