[Knight]

Not for energy but a small amount for a flavor in different food prep.

Might want to read this before using a lot to boost energy.

I use MCT oil supplements for memory and tremor stabilization. I heard coconut oil (MCT) is used for hair growth of which I tried this morning, I like the results.

I use coconut oil for a problem some of us older folks have:

Yes, it does work (for me!). Oh what a relief it is.

Coconut oil is a healthy fat containing medium chain fatty acids that help raise good cholesterol.

It helps decrease appetite to lower weight

It’s great for skin and hair . I use it on my hair sometimes to pre- poo or for scrunching in my ends.

Combined with sugar and crushed coffee beans, it makes an excellent exfoliant that quickly reduces cellulite.

It’s a great brain food and is currently been studied in the treatment of Alzheimer’s and epilepsy.

It’s also linked to heart disease prevention.

Lauric acid makes up 50% of the fatty acids in coconut oil and are anti bacterial and anti fungal.

May protect your hair skin and teeth while offering some sun screen protection. ( about 20 % )

Organic, virgin coconut oil over refined versions. There are much more benefits.

I personally love coconut oil. It smells so nice with vanilla bean too.

I've never had to deal with rusty coconuts so have never had a need for coconut oil.
