Why We Love
Coconut Oil
Ayurveda refers to the coconut tree as the “Kalpa Vriksha”, the tree that provides everything necessary for life. According to Ayurveda, coconut oil possesses pitta pacifying or cooling properties. Fluctuations in heat and temperature can disturb the pitta dosha, associated with the fire element, leading to sensitive skin conditions characterized by irritation, inflammation, and diffuse redness. Eczema, acne, and rosacea are examples of pitta imbalance. The distinguishing feature of coconut oil is its high content of lauric acid, which is second only to mother’s milk. Lauric acid, the primary medium-chain fatty acid in coconut oil, has demonstrated antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties.
Coconut oil is a versatile and beneficial natural ingredient with numerous uses. It serves as an exceptional moisturizer for the body and face, especially during the summer when its cooling effects and SPF properties are highly valued. Additionally, it acts as a gentle make-up remover, a skin moisturizer, and an effective treatment for skin issues such as psoriasis and dermatitis. Moreover, coconut oil aids in reducing the appearance of stretch marks, nourishing and repairing damaged hair, purifying oily skin, and even acts as a carrier oil for essential oils. It is also perfect for baby massage and offers relief for dry skin conditions.
In Ayurveda, coconut oil is considered one of the best methods for eliminating bacteria and promoting healthy teeth and gums. Known as Gandusha, this fantastic oral detoxification procedure involves swishing a tablespoon of pure coconut oil in your mouth for 10-20 minutes.
