Extra virgin coconut oil is a great natural weight loss and energy supplement for you to take that benefits your health and nutrition.  In fact, it’s one of the few supplements that I recommend to all of my clients who are trying to lose weight and stay healthy.

But isn’t coconut oil a saturated fat?

Yes, it’s true that coconut oil is a saturated fat but the thing that separates coconut oil from other unhealthy saturated fats is that extra virgin coconut oil is made out of short and medium chained fatty acids.  These are more readily broken down my the body and can be used to crank up your metabolism and drop some fat!

So the coconut oil works by raising your internal body temperature and therefore boosting your metabolism.  Another great benefit is that it’s a great way to get a quick burst of energy.

So how do you take it?  What I do is simply warm up some water, take a tablespoon of coconut oil and mix it in until the oil dissolves.  Then all you have to do is drink it!

Coconut Oil also won’t go bad nearly as fast as other oils and you can also use it on your skin and chapped lips!  It’s a one stop shop!
