It’s a faster, simpler way to “bullet coffee” that gives you the same energy boost with more benefits for your skin, body, heart, and brain!
Eat less:
Virgin coconut oil is high in calories but they’re healthy calories. It has excellent satiety, so that it may help you consume less throughout the day by making you feel full, longer.
Help your immune system:
There are many published studies on the antimicrobial (antibacterial, antiviral, and anti fungal) benefits of VCO, lauric acid, and other coconut derivatives. Check out this study review for some of them.
Get more energy:
Get more kick from your coffee. VCO is rich in medium-chain triglycerides and, instead of being stored as fat, its fatty acids are processed by the liver into energy. This could also…
Increase your metabolic rate…
…which helps your body burn fat more quickly.
Other health benefits
Our bodies’ cell walls (including those of our skin) are made up of lipids. VCO helps strengthen those cell walls. It’s also cholesterol-free and great for heart health. Other studies show promise for brain health, too. And VCO is a great natural laxative.
How to?
Getting all the magic of VCO in your morning coffee is super easy. Add a tablespoon of Know-It-Oil or Oil’s well to your coffee (along with coconut sugar or your choice of sweetener) and blend until mixture turns a light color. Or, pour the VCO directly into your cup — there will be a film of oil on top but it’s the same goodness and yumminess (and less cleanup)!
