Benefits of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil

Before I show you the benefits of coconut oil, I just wanted to let you know that there's in fact no such thing as "extra virgin coconut oil". That's because this healthful oil is not officially classified based on its production method, acidity level and flavor, unlike olive oil. So, when companies label their coconut oil as 'extra virgin', it simply means the same as virgin coconut oil.

They do not mean to cheat the consumers but just to tell you that their virgin oil is of the best unrefined quality, that's why they use 'extra virgin coconut oil' as the label for that matter.

Virgin coconut oil carries the most health benefits as compared to other types due to its full nutritional values being retained through its cold-pressed extraction method. The most powerful nutrient in it is none other than its abundant supply of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs).

Because of its massive amount of MCFAs, "extra" virgin coconut oil can help you ward off dis! eases like heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, breast cancer and many others. It can also help you kill most viruses, fungi and bacteria. Even the killer HIV is no match for coconut oil.
