Healthy Weight Loss

A recent study in "Clinical Biochemistry" indicated that coconut oil may help increase your metabolism and help you burn calories and fat faster. Taking virgin coconut oil regularly (regular coconut oil contains hydrogenated fats, which are bad for you), and eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly can help you lose weight. It is also believed that taking virgin coconut oil regularly will ward off food cravings, which can be detrimental to a diet.

Instructions

1 Purchase a jar of virgin coconut oil from a local grocery or health food store. It can be virgin or extra virgin, just not regular coconut oil.
2 Drink a mixture of 8 ounces warm water and 1 tbsp. of virgin coconut oil once a day. You can also add it to protein shakes if desired.
3 Take 1 tbsp. of virgin coconut oil for the first 2 weeks of your diet in addition to eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly. Avoid fatty and processed foods as much as possible.
4 Increase your intake of coconut oil to 2 to 3 tbsp. of virgin coconut oil a day.
5 Continue taking coconut oil until you reach your desired weight, and if possible continue taking at least 1 tbsp. a day to maintain your new healthy lifestyle.
