Coconut Oil is very effective. Whether you want to lose weight or cook a delicacy, it is always present for the rescue. Read on to find the amazing benefits of coconut oils.

The key rule to sustainable and faster weight loss is not to fall off the wagon every time you see the jumbo chip pack or those delicious beverages and cold drinks in your pantry.

But there is a solution to cut through this metal fat like a laser as a hot knife goes through butter. Coconut oil, the oil is already known for its wonders in the cosmetic industry. It has got amazing nourishing properties. It tastes wonderful. And now the icing on cake ladies and gentlemen, it can help in efficient and easy weight loss too. It has been proven as the world’s friendliest weight loss fat.

The reason behind this awesome quality of coconut oil is that whereas most of the oils consist of predominantly long chain fatty acids, it is high in medium chain triglycerides or the fatty acids which are metabolized differently. From the digestive tract, they go straight to the liver where they are either used for energy or converted into ketone bodies.

So the bottom line is its beneficial effects on metabolism. Also, because coconut oil is thermogenic, eating increases our energy expenditure by 5% that is nothing else but fat burning. So if we replace the normal fats we take with MCTs (Medium Chain Triglycerides), we burn more calories.

Apart from this, coconut oil also reduces your appetite making you stronger towards avoiding super burgers and fries. Obviously, it seems to be a better choice than many of its competitors like olive oil,etc., which is true indeed. In fact, in 1994, ‘The Lancet’ was published which stated that obese people had monosaturated long chain fats in their body which resemble closely with those present in olive oil. So we know who to play on among the two Mediterranean oils if we are on a mission to lose weight.

So, Coconut oil helps a lot in losing weight. But at the end of the day, it still remainsfat. Fat has 9 calories per gram, and so does this oil. Adding coconut oil on top of the fats we already consume would not help you lose and weight but will add extra pounds to your tummy. Try replacing the oils you use with organic virgin coconut oil and see the difference that will be visible on your abdomen in some time after you start.
