Wellness - Coconut Oil



Happy Wednesday!

So, I recently discovered a new use for coconut oil!! Last month our refrigerator went out and we had to get a new one. Stainless steel is the norm and I found myself with my OCD constantly wiping to keep it clean and spotless. I turned to google! Coconut oil is a great cleaner and lubricant for stainless steel. It removes fingerprints, bacteria and gives a nice shine. After wiping off any dirt, dip a cloth in pure coconut oil and rub into anything stainless steel. It works!! Plus, it doesn't leave fingerprints for days and guards against germs. The lauric acid is what kills bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Which we need to watch at this time of season.

Coconut oil contains a combination of fatty acids that can also benefit our bodies in many ways:

1. Strengthens hair as a conditioner and moisturizer.
2. Whitens teeth by rubbing on teeth.
3. Prevents and heals cavities by swishing around in mouth.
4. Helps curb appetite when ingested, 1 teaspoon daily. (Just swallow it after you rinse your mouth with it;))
5. Great oil for skin and a natural sun screen. 6. Protects nails when rubbed on cuticles.
