Heal Digestive Conditions with Coconut Oil

By: John Goh
 

People from many diverse cultures, languages, religions, and races scattered around the globe have revered the coconut as a valuable source of both food and medicine. Wherever the coconut palm grows, the local people have learned of the importance of coconut oil use in effective medicine. For thousands of years coconut oil products have held a respected and valuable place in local folk medicine.

Coconut oil is of special interest because it possesses healing properties far beyond that of any other dietary oil and is extensively used in traditional medicine among Asian and Pacific populations. Pacific Islanders consider coconut oil to be the cure for all illness. The coconut palm is so highly valued by them as both a source of food and medicine that it is called "The Tree of Life." Only recently has modern medical science unlocked the secrets to coconut's amazing healing powers.

Modern medical science is now confirming coconut oil use in treating many medical conditions. Coconut oil, in one form or another, is used in hospital formulas to nourish seriously ill patients who cannot take solid food. Instead of food, the patients take formulas containing coconut oil. Quick nourishment is delivered to these patients as coconut oil is rapidly absorbed. They get nutrients from the formulas containing coconut oil, thereby speeding up their healing process.

Coconut oil is an important ingredient in the baby formulas that hospitals use to feed new-born babies. The medium chain fatty acids in coconut nourish babies and help them to grow. They also serve the purpose of protecting babies from virus and bacteria while their immune system is still weak.

Coconut oil is also recommended by medical doctors for people with digestive problems. The fat in coconut oil is easily absorbed without the need for digestive enzymes. This is critical as the cells in our body require fats to function well. People with digestive disorders can still get their supply of fats from coconut oil for their cells. Coconut oil also improves vitamin and mineral absorption.
