For a long time, I have thought that I needed to stay away from coconuts, because of the fat content, but it turns out that some culture in the world have used coconuts for food AND medicine. It has some fairly incredible healing properties and helps you use the essential fatty acids in your food. We should be adding coconuts to our health food list because, among other things:

• Coconut oil is the lowest calorie fat source
• It softens your skin and helps prevent wrinkles
• It is good for your hair
• It has antioxidants
