Coconut

I was born and brought up in the land of coconuts and yes coconuts for a major part of our diet we malayees are always looking for optimal utilization of resources and it’s amazing how many uses they are discovered for the good old coconut. From its husk used for rope to its leaves used to build houses, sweep floors. The very coconut , the tender inside used in cooking and making oil , its hard nut outside used for making spoons for cooking or burned to make the fire for cooking and the water used for drinking and even make alcohol ..


LOL amazing what a single tree can do... Our families have always used coconut oil for our head, body and consumption. It helps moisturize your skin and scalp .It’s a natural antiseptic and hence helps fight infection, it for the base for several oils in Ayurveda .It’s one of the main oil used to cure Eczema. Consumed it helps in weight loss, its lighter than regular oils however an acquired taste is.

I absolutely love cooking in this magic oil and always carry it around everywhere I go
