5) Use Coconut Oil to Treat Acne and Heal Wounds I had no idea that coconut oil can treat acne until I did research for this article. According to dermatologist Jeannette Graf in Allure Magazine, coconut oil contains lauric acid which naturally fights the bacteria that causes acne. Graf says it "has potential" for treating acne, which says to me it's not exactly proven. I figure if you have acne it wouldn't hurt to try it. Graf says coconut oil also contains anti-inflammatory fatty acids which is great for wound healing. So if you have nicks and scrapes on your legs, it's just one more reason to moisturize with coconut oil. |
4) Use it as a Makeup Remover Coconut oil, however, is a great eye makeup remover. It even removes waterproof mascara. Simply apply a bit to a cotton ball or tissue paper and press on your eyelid. Wipe away the makeup once the oil soaks in. Wipe up excess oil with a fresh tissue. |
3) Use it as a Foundation Primer If you use a foundation or tinted moisturizer you may notice how much better it goes on when you've applied a primer beforehand or moisturizer. Coconut oil works as the perfect primer for foundation. Simply put a pea-sized amount on face, let it soak in and then apply your tinted moisturizer or foundation. You'll notice how much smoother your makeup goes on. |
2) Use it to Fight Dandruff Coconut oil can help keep dandruff at bay. Simply massage coconut oil into scalp, shampoo, then rinse. Keep this up until the dandruff clears up. My instinct says this will cause really greasy hair, but some people swear by coconut oil. I suggest avoiding this if you have oily hair and trying something else. It might be great for people with dry hair. |
1) Antioxidant to Slow Down Aging Oxidation is a natural process, which takes place all the time in nature. It is why a tuber of yam cut open turns brown. Fish becomes rancid. It is a major cause of skin aging. As your skin gets exposed by the day to UV light, oxygen, pollution and etc, oxidation occurs to generate reactive oxygen radicals also known as free radicals which dramatically, cause significant damage to cell structures hence, degenerative disorders including aging and disease. Even though the changes may be latent but with time, manifestations such as increase in wrinkle formation, loss of skin tone, hyper pigmentation and other skin discoloration becomes evidence of your aging skin. However, coconut oil having positive antioxidant properties helps your body to neutralize the free radical thus stopping further damage they will cause to other healthy fats and cells in our body. |
Firstly, coconut oil has been said to be a perfect beauty product that is better than the average face moisturizer. And hair serum. And body lotion because: "Commercial moisturizers contain lots of water, which makes you feel like your skin is being moisturized. But as soon as the water dries, your skin becomes dry again. Also, many commercial brands of moisturizers contain petroleum-based ingredients that can suffocate the skin. In contrast, coconut oil provides deep and real moisture. It helps strengthen underlying tissues and helps remove excessive dead cell on the skin's surface that makes your skin rough and flaky in texture. It also great for shine and as a natural moisturizer for your hair. Tip: Rub a dime-sized amount (a little goes a long way with this stuff) of coconut oil on to dry ends to hydrate and tame frizzy flyaways. On your face, apply as you would your normal moisturizer. While it tends to have a greasier consistency (at first), it's fantastic at absorbing quickly into skin. A spoonful is enough to hydrate your entire body; swap it in for your current lotion.

33) Peptic ulcers Helps Prevent and Treat Bacterial Infections that causes peptic ulcer. It also calmes the burning pain of ulcer in less than 30minutes Coconut oil for ulcer? By destroying a wide spectrum of disease-causing organisms, coconut oil helps treat and prevent ulcers, without doing any harm to your body. Ulcers can occur anywhere along your digestive tract, and in or near your mouth. I remember a time when excessive stress was believed to be the main cause of peptic ulcers. My mother used to say that stress stimulates gastric acid secretion that burns holes through the lining of an empty stomach causing the ulcers. Well, it’s now known that a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori causes peptic or stomach ulcers. Gastric ulcers are brought about by bacteria burrowing into the stomach’s wall. Stress may very well still be involved by diminishing resistance to infection. Antibiotics are sometimes prescribed to deal with ulcers. Problem is, antibiotics can lead to other health problems by killing even friendly bacteria. Coconut oil provides a naturally effective and totally harmless approach. H. pylori, herpes and streptococcus are associated with various types of ulcers, and are all killed by Medium Chain Fatty Acids (MCFA) generously found in coconut oil. Some ulcers that take place in the digestive tract are caused by cancer. Coconut oil possesses cancer-fighting properties as it aids the immune system in seeking out and destroying cancerous cells. |

29) Helps Prevent and Treat Bacterial Infections of the Dental Cavities Tooth decay, or dental caries is an infection that causes the breakdown and eventual destruction of the organic matter of the tooth, and it is one of the most common diseases in the world. New research from the Athlone Institute of Technology in Ireland shows that the unique fatty acids found in coconut oil are able to attack bacteria that cause tooth decay. The findings were recently presented at the Society for General Microbiology's Autumn Conference 2012 at the University of Warwick, United Kingdom. The research team tested the antibacterial action of coconut oil in two states. In its natural state, and in a second state where they treated the coconut oil with enzymes to simulate a process similar to digestion, thus breaking down the oil into individual fatty acids. The oils were then tested against strains of Streptococcus bacteria, common inhabitants of the mouth. What they discovered was that the enzyme-modified coconut oil (medium chain fatty acids) strongly inhibited the growth of most strains of Streptococcus bacteria including Streptococcus mutans—an acid-producing bacterium that is the primary causative agent in the formation of dental caries in humans. |

18) Hair Strengthening/Darkening: Coconut oil bonds to the individual hair follicles making them stronger and darker. |
17) Coconut Oil for Hair Coconut oil reduces the protein loss, stops breakage and makes your hair stronger when used as a pre-wash and post-wash grooming product, either for undamaged or damaged hair. This is because lauric acid has a high affinity for hair proteins. Due to its low molecular weight and straight line chain, it can easily penetrate inside the hair shaft. Unlike mineral oil, being a hydrocarbon has no affinity for proteins and therefore is not able to penetrate and yield better results. Coconut oil hair treatment makes your hair softer and manageable thus preventing it from tangling and having split ends. Does it kill dandruff? Yes! it does, keep reading to discover more. |
