KooKoo about Coconut Oil  -

09th July 2018

 

Several populations across the globe have thrived for multiple generations eating large amounts of it. Some drink it, some bake with it, while others use it as a skin moisturiser. Being one of the few foods classified as a ‘superfood’, coconut oil provides many health benefits to those who eat or cook with it. As one of the leading food importers Malta has to offer, our team at Hi Trading Ltd takes a look at various benefits of stocking up on coconut oil, be it for your kitchens and bathroom cabinets or your retail or catering establishment.

 

Health benefits of eating coconut oil

Contrary to popular belief, not all fats are unhealthy! Healthy fats are actually an essential part of a healthy, balanced diet, and coconut oil is high in them. This can boost the fat burning process and provide both your brain and body with quick energy. Moreover, the fatty acids that coconut oil contains can kill harmful pathogens such as bacteria and viruses, which could potentially help in the prevention of infections.

 

Coconut oil as a healthy cooking method

This tropical oil is very different from most other cooking oils as it contains a unique composition of fatty acids. Coconut oils contain health promoting medium-chain fatty acids which are highly resistant to oxidation at high heat, making it very suitable for high-heat cooking methods such as frying.

 

Skin, hair, dental health

However, the health benefits of coconut oil are not limited to eating it. More and more people are using it for cosmetic purposes, applying it topically to protect their hair, skin and dental health. Individuals with dry skin greatly benefit from coconut oil; it can improve the moisture content of the skin and also reduce symptoms of eczema. Furthermore, it can protect against hair damage and serve as a weak sunscreen, blocking about 20% of the sun’s UV rays.
