With too many benefits to name, Coconut oil is a great addition to this list. Its unique blend of fatty acids can have real positive effects on your overall health. Among the benefits, weight loss, better brain function, and protecting your hair and nails.

The Carrington Farms Coconut Oil is a pure, unrefined, and cold pressed coconut oil that omits a lovely perfume of the fruit before even opening the container. The 12 oz organic extra virgin coconut oil is housed in a perfectly sized plastic, it’s easy to store just about anywhere. It worked well with food, and just the same moisturized skin, and hair.
