Awesome Food = Coconut!
Coconut has a large list of impressive nutrients including vitamins, minerals, fiber, water, and healthy fats. I'm going to give you two very cool facts about coconut that you may not know. First, coconut contains a special kind of fat called a "medium chain triglyceride." Medium chain triglycerides or MCTs can be used by the body quickly and easily, so they make a great fuel. Second, coconut contains a powerful nutrient called "lauric acid." Lauric acid is know to be anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and even anti-viral! So next time you are starting to feel a little worn down or sick, I would recommend coconut, coconut oil, or coconut butter. If you have any questions about where to find these products, post in the comments section or send me an email!
