Coconut Oil... The Next Best Thing?

So I follow numerous Instagram and Facebook accounts for healthy recipe's and all that jazz. I have come across a TON of people using coconut oil in their foods. It has been trending for quite some time now!

I've decided to research for myself, some of the benefits of using coconut oil. You can literally use it for anything.... food, your hair, skin, you can even use it to rinse your mouth out and kill bacteria, etc. !!! Below I have listed just some of the many benefits coconut oil will have on your life.

Benefits:

  • Moisturizes skin
  • Healthy, shiny, strong, hair
  • Useful for weight loss
  • Helps strengthen your immune system
  • Helps to improve digestive system
  • Stress relief
  • Dental care 
  • And MANY MANY MANYY MORE!!

Coconut oil can be used as a replacement for cooking butter or oils in foods. You can use it in your coffee or tea, you can put it in a smoothie. You can make your own homemade soap with it. There are SO MANY things you can do with coconut oil that you wouldn't even be able to imagine!

Have any of you used coconut oil to cook? I would love to hear some yummy recipe's!!
