Virgin coconut oil 500ml - VIVIO

The health benefits of coconut oil arouse constant controversy and unwavering interest among scientists and specialists in the field of healthy nutrition. Therefore, conflicting information and numerous studies on the effects of this substance on the human body can be found in the literature. The high content of saturated fatty acids appears to be the main cause of intolerance. However, the saturated fatty acids contained in coconut oil are characterized by a medium chain length, which makes them less harmful to the human circulatory system than the saturated fatty acids found in animal fats. However, it is important to consume coconut oil with caution, as it can have a positive effect on the body and human well-being.
Several studies and scientific observations underscore the fact that coconut oil (in combination with a balanced diet and consistent physical activity) is an effective tool for preventing overweight and obesity. Furthermore, the substances contained in this oil may have powerful antibacterial, fungicidal, and virucidal properties. Scientists at the Irish Institute of Technology have also shown that unrefined coconut oil can prevent the development of cavities and other oral infections. Studies published in the 2007 Journal of Medicinal Food indicate that, when used correctly, coconut oil can support the treatment of athlete's foot. This is all due to its properties responsible for combating harmful fungi of the Candida family.
Interestingly, medium-chain fatty acids found in coconut oil may increase the effectiveness of treating neurodegenerative diseases (e.g., Parkinson's disease or Alzheimer's disease) . It turns out that consuming adequate amounts of this product, along with a proper diet, increases the concentration of ketone bodies in the brain, which provide an alternative energy source (instead of glucose) during the progression of these diseases.
