Use nature's elixir to lose weight, prevent heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, and beautify skin and hair. Can saturated fat be good for you? Natural coconut oil-not the hydrogenated version often found in processed foods-is a saturated fat, but not the kind your doctor has warned you about. Studies have shown that this uniquely curative oil actually has innumerable health benefits ranging from disease prevention to anti-aging. Now, in his revised edition of the first book to describe the therapeutic properties of coconut oil, Bruce Fife offers a nutrition plan with dozens of tasty recipes that will allow anyone to experience the healing miracles of what he deems the "perfect food." When taken as a supplement, used in cooking, or applied to directly to the skin, coconut oil has been found to: - Promote weight loss - Help protect against heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and many other degenerative diseases - Strengthen the immune system - Improve digestion - Prevent premature aging of the skin
Good book. Easy to read and digest. We’ve been led to believe coconut oil is bad for us but that’s far from the truth. If you’d like to learn a bit more about that then this is a good pick up.
Love it!

Coconut Convert

I admit it. I bought into all the big business hype about how bad coconut oil was for me. After reading this book and altering my diet, I see how wrong I was to believe the misinformation I was being fed. The saturated fat in coconut oil is actually good for you and helps keep you healthy in so many ways. An interesting and amazing book backed up by history and fact. I just wish it had not been repetitive at times and at other times a bit hard to my layman's sensibilities to understand, but those are small quibbles. I enjoyed reading it and got through it fairly quickly. You'll want to keep a copy for yourself and get one for someone you love, it's that convincing!I've been using coconut oil and avoiding other vegetable and hydrogenated oils since reading it and I feel better and have more energy. Read it for yourself and become a convert.
A "Miracle" of a Book !

Bruce Fife has done it again! Just when I thought that "Saturated Fat May Save Your Life" was perhaps the gretaest health book ever written, along comes "The Healing Miracles of Coconut Oil".This book should be at the top of the "must read" list for anyone who is seriously interested in taking charge of their health.Coconut oil and it's associated Medium Chain Fatty Acids are indeed true health miracles. They prevent & even reverse everything from infections to viruses (including the flu) to germs and bacteria of many types. And it does so far better than any medical drugs can, and without any side effects what so ever.Of all the lies and "half truths" being perpetuated by the medical establishment, drug companies, the media and special interest groups, such as the American Soybean Association (400,000 members strong), perhaps the biggest & most deadly lie is that saturated fats are bad for you and that vegetable oils (used for cooking and as preservatives for prepackaged foods) arehealthy for us."The Healing Miracles of Coconut Oil" explodes these lies once and for all, and provides concrete proof to support the author's conclusions.I have been involved in the nutritional supplement & health food store fields for 8 years, and I can honestly tell you this is the kind of information millions of health-concious Americans are desperately seeking.Not only will it be impossible for you to put this book down, you should show it to everbody that you truly care about, especially those that suffer from excessive weight, heart disease, cancer, diabetes and immune system disorders.And show "The Healing Miracles of Coconut Oil" to your doctor. It's 99% likely he/she will not know this information.And if you or someone you know is pregnant / breast-feeding, it is essential that they know about the importance of healthy breast milk to their child (especially if they use coconut oil /milk.Your /their child's life may depend upon it!Don't wait - order "The Healing Miracles of Coconut Oil" - now!
