A list of 20 uses for coconut oil
I have started using coconut oil in my baking to replace butter and it has been wonderful.
The more I researched it though, the more I realized coconut oil can be used in so much more than just cooking.
Here is a list of 20 uses for coconut oil:
1. On the skin as a lotion.
2. As an eye make up remover.
3. To prevent stretch mars during pregnancy.
4. On toast instead of butter.
5. Facial scrub - Combine coconut oil with Himalayan crystal salt and apply to face each night. Washing it off is optional.
6. Body Scrub - Combine coconut oil and sugar.
7. Homemade Lip balm - Apply directly
8. Massage oil - Coconut oil is the perfect choice for a massage oil
9. Sunburn Care - A great moisturizer to use after you've gotten a bit too much sun.
10. Elbow Rub - Helps manage the dry skin on your elbows.
11. For Split Ends - Just put a tiny amount on your hands and run them through the frizzy areas.
12. Metabolism Booster - 2 tablespoons per day are proven to rev up your metabolism.
13. Thyroid Supporter - Regular coconut oil consumption has been shown to support healthy thyroid function.
14 Ultimate hair product - Work a small amount into your hair to tame it and produces
well-defined waves and curls without greasiness. Do an overnight deep-condition.
15. Diaper
and nipple cream - Apply it to your baby’s bottom for
moisturizing and antibacterial treatment. If you’re nursing, use it in place of
lanolin to treat sore nipples.
16. Dandruff – Massage coconut oil into the scalp
to ease symptoms of dandruff, both itching and flaking.
17. Wrinkles – Rub into lines, creases, and wrinkles to rehydrate skin and soften those wrinkles away.
18.Gum Removal - Coconut oil gets the sticky stuff out of hair, carpet and anywhere else it doesen't belong.
19. Toothpaste – Mix 1 part coconut oil with 1 part baking soda and add a couple drops of peppermint oil. This makes a refreshing, natural toothpaste that whitens and cleans without added preservatives, fluoride, sweeteners, or other chemicals.
20. Polish Furniture – Coconut oil gives a protective shine to wood furniture. Just make sure you test it out on a small area to make sure you like the outcome.
