One of tabloids this year has claimed
that coconut is a miraculous cure which will alleviate all of your
problems with thyroid gland. That’s obviously not true, but there
is some connection between coconut oil and a healthy thyroid gland.
Coconut has been used for many centuries and still is, not only in
culinary, but medicinal purposes as well.
Coconut oil is saturated fat made of a
chain of fatty acids which have been proved to accelerate metabolism
and stimulate weight loss. Coconut oil can also increase body’s
base temperature. It has a different way of being digested compared
to other nutrients because it gets broken down far easier when it
gets to the liver, which leads to greater production of energy and
more efficient burning of fatty deposits.
One of the advantages of coconut oil is
its greater lifetime. Many oils are quick to spoil. In order to
prevent that, manufacturers treat them in order to postpone their
expiration date. Those hydrogenised oils are harmful for the human
body, and especially for the thyroid gland. On the other side,
coconut oil is very durable and it doesn’t require harmful
processes which would increase its lifetime.
Studies have shown that coconut oil
improves body’s resistance to viruses, bacteria and fungal
infections, especially those caused by candid, all because it
contains boric acid. It’s a natural bacteria repellant and is very
efficient in treating ulcers.
Some health benefits of coconut oil:
- It controls gastric acids and maintains healthy bladder functions
- It reduces risk of developing hemorrhoids
- It treats gastrointestinal illnesses
- It alleviates ear pain
- It soothes symptoms of enlarged prostate
- It compliments liver functions and maintains its health
- It alleviates joint pain and muscle inflammations
Because of all these health benefits
coconut is often found in cosmetic products. It nurtures and
moisturizes the skin and can be used to massage hair roots and get
rid of dandruff.
All of these benefits compliment
coconut oil as one of the best natural remedies for thyroid problems.
We advise you to implement it in your daily routine and you will
