24 Natural Beauty and Health Uses for Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil

Coconut Oil is an Amazing Health and Skincare product

Coconut Oil is a must have in a healthy eating and natural skin care routine. A must have! This post will highlight some of the reasons for this and show you how I use it my Awesome Naturelles approach to health.

I have been using it for the past twelve months and have grown to love and respect it more and more each day. Love It.

Why is Coconut Oil Awesome for your Health and Beauty?

Coconut oil is nowadays considered to be a good fat because it is made up of MCFAs or medium chained fatty acids. Our bodies love MCFAs because it can break them down much easier than it can the LCFA or long chained fatty acids.

Following on from my last post on Hemp Oil, I decided to include it in a special Mother's Day creation smoothie which I tried this morning. As a busy mom, I focused on a drink that would boost energy and give some extra calcium as I don't drink much milk. 
Almond supplies this beautifully.

Ingredients

1 Banana 
A good handful of Spinach
1 cup Almond Milk
1 cup Pomegranate Juice
1 Tbsp Hemp Oil

Blend Away

Awesome Tips
You could add oats, sliced almonds or some protein powder for extra oomph!

This tasted so good that I forgot to take pictures of it after blending. 
The Hemp Oil has a specific taste which just blended in with the other flavours so err on the side of caution when adding until you get the flavour that suits you. 
The pomegranate juice with cherry gave it sweetness as well so no extra is needed.

It was a beautiful mixture of goodness which I recommend.
I am energised and I feel full!
