Extra Virgin Coconut Oil Benefits Weight Loss

By Karina Frost


Almost everyone wants to lose weight at some time or other. It's important to choose a healthy way to do this, and consumers should be aware that not all reducing plans are safe and effective. Many drop pounds while experiencing increased well-being when extra virgin coconut oil benefits weight loss.

Although conventional wisdom still preaches cutting fats from your diet while trying to reduce weight, research has shown that including healthy fats can actually help reach reducing goals. Ingesting unrefined - and therefore unaltered - fats like those from olives and coconuts can help burn stored fat while dieters experiencing a sense of fullness which makes it easier to stick to a limited-calorie intake.

The meat of a coconut is gel when the nut is young but densely white, fibrous, and flavorful at maturity. A young nut is full of nutritious 'water', which declines in volume as the nut matures. Both young and mature nuts are very nutritious. The 'milk' sold in stores is derived from the mature meat, as are the nutritional oils. Sometimes the oil is pressed, as in extra virgin, but sometimes chemical solvents are used for extraction.

Coconuts have additional food value. They have lots of fiber - always a plus when dieting - and significant amounts of protein. The oil is rich in medium-chain triglycerides, which are hard to find in the food supply. They also have antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-system boosting properties.

These triglycerides don't need to be stored as fat before they can be burned (metabolized) for energy. This means that dieters who consume a few spoonfuls a day experience quick and sustained energy, without the carbohydrate crash that can trigger food cravings. Being more energetic means that dieters are more likely to include exercise in their daily routine, which tones muscles, speeds up metabolism, and enhances deep breathing and circulation.

Cutting out refined foods, which often have altered and therefore unhealthy vegetable fats, and high-carbohydrate sweets and baked goods is key to dieting success. Adding the good fat content of coconuts helps curb appetite, enhance thermogenesis (fat-burning), and cut the misery of not eating your favorite foods while reducing calorie intake.

It's important to get a good form of this beneficial food. Extra-virgin oils are minimally processed and undamaged by heat. The original color, flavor, and aroma of the nut should be retained, a sign that the nutritive values are unharmed. In clinical trials, dieters who included this oil experienced better digestion, lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and healthier thyroid function.

To get the maximum benefits, choose an organic, extra virgin product that is naturally white and smells like pure coconut. This will assure you that the natural goodness has not been compromised by improper processing and handling and that you get healthy benefits as well as losing the extra weight.
