Pure Virgin Coconut Oil
For thousands of years, the fruit of the coconut tree and it’s life- giving oil and milk have bestowed health and radiance to the skin and hair of the South Pacific Islanders. Exposed to the blistering sun, wind and weather conditions they are still famed for their beautiful hair and skin. If it protects and beautifies in harsh conditions, imagine what it will do for your skin in your environment.
Many skin care products today use highly refined vegetable oils devoid of all natural protective antioxidants (vitamins A, C, E & beta-carotene). These oxidized vegetable oils lead to destructive free-radicals (renegade molecules that cause damage to cells &tissues). Once a free-radical reaction is started it can cause a chain reaction that produces more free radicals, which ultimately damages thousands of molecules. The only way our body has to fight them is with antioxidants. When a free radical comes into contact with an antioxidant, the chain reaction is stopped. For this reason, it is good to have plenty of antioxidants in our cells and tissues to protect us. The number of antioxidants we have in our tissues is determined to a large extent by the nutrients in our diet. Having anti-oxidants in skin care products is important, too.
Virgin Coconut Oil is useful in fighting free-radicals, as it is unrefined, free of impurities and hasn’t been stripped of its natural antioxidant components - vitamins A, C, E, and beta- caratene.
