Health Benefits of Coconut Milk




-Arthritis:  The antioxidant selenium found in coconut milk is known to help relieve the symptoms of arthritis by knocking out free radicals and helping to prevent joint inflammation.

-Bone health:  Coconut milk contains calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium which all help in building and maintaining strong healthy bones and also help to naturally prevent osteoporosis.

-Weight loss:  Plant based saturated fats found in coconut milk and pulp can actually help you lose weight naturally due to the fact that they make you feel full for longer.

-Skin health:  Applying coconut milk topically hydrates and invigorates skin, repairing damage and naturally removing wrinkles.  The natural fats help to lock in moisture as well, compensating for environmental stressors and overexposure to chemicals and sunlight.

-Heart health:  The saturated fats found in the milk of coconuts can help protect against heart disease by killing major types of bacteria which cause plaque buildup in blood vessels.  People who live on a diet high in coconut and coconut milk tend to have far lower rates of heart disease than those who don't.

-Relaxation:  Loaded with magnesium, which helps to relax muscles by calming nerve cells and preventing excess muscle contractions.  Some people claim to sleep better when they consume significant amounts of food containing magnesium.
