Did you know coconut oil helps the thyroid and thus helps with weight loss? In addition, coconut oil will kill yeast (Caprylic acid which does the same is a concentrated form), and will thus also help with weight loss. If a person has too much yeast/Candida, then weight loss is next to impossible: Apparently, it controls hunger and cravings too - but if one gets rid of the yeast problem, then that is a happy side effect. Coconut oil has antiviral, antibacterial, and antifungal properties. Gee, what else does it do - cure a gammy toe too? Seriously, it is well worth adding coconut oil to your diet (don't go hog wild though as it is calorific.)
"The coconut oil weight effect is astounding. Did you know that by simply replacing vegetable oils such as soybean, corn, safflower oil and the likes with coconut cooking oil, you can lose up to almost 40 pounds of excess weight each year? No kidding!
This is according to a research conducted at McGill University in Canada. And get this! You don't even have to change anything in your diet. Nada! Not even lower your calorie intake. Just a simple oil-change can lubricate, so to speak, that blubber away. Imagine that."
