10 Favorite Uses of Coconut Oil

10 Favorite Uses of Coconut Oil

Have you read all the possible uses for coconut oil? This is often reported as the fix everything oil!  I am amazed at the extent Coconut oil has made its way on the shelves at the stores. Based on the articles and research I have read, I think the possibilities have barely been touched. 

These are the 10 favorite uses for coconut oil at our house:
  1. Used as a lotion (great on hands after washing dishes)
  2. To remove eye-makeup
  3. As a sunscreen or tanning lotion (contains SPF 4)
  4. As a wonderful massage oil
  5. Mixed with equal parts sugar for a body scrub
  6. Rubbed into lips as chap stick
  7. Natural Hair Conditioner – Massage through hair, cover with cap for an hour, shampoo as usual
  8. Use as any vegetable oil in recipes
  9. Soothing to a sore throat mixed in a cup of warm tea
  10. Settles heartburn and nausea taken in warm ginger tea

Have you started using 100% Pure & Natural Coconut Oil?
  What are your favorite uses for it?

    I was just researching coconut oil yesterday because I had heard there is promising data showing that ingesting coconut oil can help with Alzheimer’s. Definately worth noting. Gotta love that coconut oil!

    I use unrefined coconut oil as a butter replacement. It’s great on baked potatoes as well as melted and poured on popcorn.

    I have not tried using coconut oil yet. I sure have heard a lot about it lately, though. I see a lot more recipes and uses like the ones you listed above. For some reason I thought that it was one of the unhealthy oils like palm oil.

    I love coconut oil and I didn’t know it could be used to soothe a sore throat or that it settles heartburn! I will have to remember that! Thank you!
