Spa Saturdays- 03 Coconut Oil (Treatments)

Heyy guys ! Check my Previous post for the benefits of the Coconut Oil. In this post I'll tell you how you can add this amazing Oil to improve your Lifestyle at Home.

Coconut Oil- for skin :-

• Apply a thin layer of oil over your body after bathing or showering. Several thin layers of oil are absorbed much better than one thick layer because too much oil in any one place saturates the tissues and limits absorption.

• Add to the bath. You may also drop some coconut oil in your bath water while taking a bath.

• Use as a massage oil. Coconut is a lovely oil for massaging, leaving a faint odor of coconut wafting about as you massage. It can be applied all over, although if you want an instant stress reliever, try massaging just your temples with a little of it.

Coconut Oil- for Hair :-

• Apply the coconut oil directly onto your scalp. If you live in an arid climate, consider lightly misting your hair with water first.

• Massage hair from hair roots to ends.

• Leave on for at least 30 minutes before washing. For best results, leave on for as long as you can and apply at least three times a week.

• For deeper penetration, apply directly onto your scalp, massaging from roots to ends before bedtime. Then leave on overnight (cover your head with a cap or towel, or lay a towel across your pillow). Shampoo and rinse well in the morning.

Coconut Oil- for Health :-

• Consider eating coconut oil regularly for internal benefits that help your skin and hair glow too. Some people are convinced that coconut oil taken internally is a healthy dietary supplement that improves hair and skin health. On the other hand, some members of the medical profession warn about consuming too much saturated fat (which coconut oil consists of mostly). Moreover, given that it is high in calories, only small amounts should be consumed. If you do decide to eat it as well as slather it on, be sure to only consume virgin, cold-pressed organic coconut oil. Be careful to avoid oil that has been treated chemically or hydrogenated.

Coconut Oil-for Weight Loss :-

• Eat 1 tbsp. of organic virgin coconut oil before each meal. Your liver converts the medium-chain fatty acids found in coconut oil into energy and increases your metabolic rate.

• Substitute coconut oil for any other cooking oils that you use for frying.

• Toss your freshly popped popcorn with coconut oil instead of butter for a new taste and extra serving of healthy saturated fat.

• Add 1 tbsp. of coconut oil to cottage cheese, yogurt or your morning smoothie.
