 Coconut oil is the "magic formula" for health and beauty

Coconut oil is not only distinguished by its delicious taste, but its benefits on the health of the brain, skin and hair have made it the "magic oil", which improves the condition of people with Alzheimer's and protects against insect bites and can be replaced by some chemical products.

Some international cuisines, such as Asian cuisine, rely heavily on coconut oil, whose benefits are not only limited to internal health, but extend to the beauty of skin, hair and mental health as well. What are the most important benefits of this oil, which experts describe as a "magic solution" to many health and cosmetic problems?

An alternative to deodorants

  The fact that coconut oil contains lauric acid makes it an effective antibacterial agent, making it an ideal alternative to chemical deodorants.

Treats cellulite

 Cellulite wrinkles that appear in women's bodies are annoying things that can be treated in a simple way, by applying coconut oil to the body after a hot bath. It is preferable not to dry the body completely, as the moisture of the skin helps the oil reach the cells. Massaging the oil on the skin helps the nutrients it contains reach the cells to provide them with important vitamins and minerals. It is important to drink at least four glasses of water before this process in order to facilitate the exit of harmful substances from the body through urine.

Makeup remover

Putting two drops of coconut oil on a piece of cotton and passing it on the face helps remove traces of makeup, including mascara and eye shadow, according to the German magazine "Brigitte".

To treat hair and scalp problems

Coconut oil helps protect and moisturize hair. It is also a suitable way to get rid of dandruff, dry hair and itchy scalp.

dry skin

Pure natural coconut oil is superior to all skin moisturizing products, especially for those who suffer from severe dry skin. Coconut oil is quickly absorbed without leaving greasy effects on the skin. Coconut oil performs the same function for those who suffer from chapped lips as well.

Protects from insect bites

 Mosquitoes, fleas, and horse flies have one thing in common: they can't stand the lauric acid in coconut oil. Therefore, the use of coconut oil protects against the bites of these insects for about six full hours.

fungal infection

Not only does lauric acid protect against insect bites, but it also helps treat skin infections caused by bacterial and fungal infections.

wound healing

Coconut oil accelerates wound healing due to its antibacterial and antiviral effects and protects against scars that wounds usually leave on the skin.
