| WHY CHOOSE COCONUT OIL? |
“If there was an oil you could use for your daily
cooking needs that helped protect you from heart disease, cancer, and
other degenerative conditions, improved your digestion, strengthened your
immune system, and helped you lose excess weight, would you be interested?
This is what coconut oil can do for you.” According to Dr. Bruce
Fife, taken from his book The Healing Miracles of Coconut Oil.
Studies have dated back farther than 1930’s to show
the relationship between good health and coconut oils. And they have continued
to show the great effects that coconut oil consumption can have on our
bodies. It has been shown to: |
- - Increase energy
- - Increase the body’s metabolic rate
- - Increase the chances of successful weight loss
- - Lower the chances of developing osteoporosis
- - Help prevent pre-mature signs of aging (such as wrinkles and loss
of elasticity)
- - Improve skin tone and appearance

| WHAT IS COCONUT
CREAM CONCENTRATE™? |
Coconut Cream Concentrate™ is certified organic
whole coconut meat in concentrated form. It's creamy consistency is the
result of grinding the high fat content meat into a fine blended powder.
This is a food product not a cooking oil.
Coconut Cream Concentrate™ differs from Coconut Oil
in that it is the coconut. This provides the same benefits of using coconut
oil with added fiber, protein, and natural sugars. It will however contain
carbohydrates, due to the addition of sugar, where Coconut Oil does not.

| WHAT IS LAURIC ACID? |
Lauric Acid is an unsaturated fatty acid found in milk,
coconut, and many other sources. Lauric acid, when joined to a glycerol
backbone with other fatty acids and compounds, may form lipids or phospholipids.
Lipids and phospholipids are used as cell membranes all over the human
body.

Lauric Acid is beneficial to newborn babies as well. A study
published in 1998 in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition
has shown that lactating mothers who ate coconut oil and other coconut
products, had significantly increased levels of lauric acid and capric
acid in their breast milk. These acids are essential to protect the infant
from harmful diseases and bacteria. In the study the mothers' milk supplies
has increased amounts of the protective antimicrobials, which gave an
even greater protection to the nursing infants.
