Coconut oil is the healthiest oil you can consume, but, sadly, it is also one of the most overlooked and misunderstood oils of our time. This is why this book is an important and necessary read for so many Americans. Perhaps most importantly, the book explains, in everyday, easy-to-understand terms, not only the chemistry of fats and why coconut oil is so essential to the human body, but also you will learn the secrets that make people living in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands--where coconut oil is the primary source of fat--known for their beautiful hair and skin.
This book reveals what people of the Pacific Rim have known for centuries: coconut oil has numerous rejuvenating and beautifying qualities. This book is packed with information--including natural beauty secrets and 30 recipes for using coconut oil, grated coconut and coconut milk to make delicious dishes and health care products--that will help you learn about and benefit from these qualities. There's even a section on how to open a coconut, and step-by-step instructions to make coconut milk, coconut cream and toasted coconut.
