Coconut Oil For Weight Loss And So Many Other Good Uses.

I've been reading the benefits of extra vigrin coconut oil, it comes in jar that needs no refrigeration and melts easily. DO NOT MICROWAVE!

I've been using coconut oil to cook with, eat a tablespoon everyday in my coffee, and use it as a moisturizer and hair condition. A little goes a long way. Google coconut oil make sure it is extra virgin cold pressed oil.

I have a huge jar of this and use it in recipes, to cook with, for skin and hair. I also have the supplements. I haven't been using it long, but excited about the benefits of it.

Does it have a strong taste? Like, can you use it to fry an egg without making it gross?

I wouldn't fry with it at all! It will start smoking like crazy. It's more like a spread- you'd put it on your toast or something.

I have absolutely fried with it. When we have sausage which isn't often, we put a little in the pan and it gives it a great taste. You can put it in almost anything that calls for butter or oil. I wouldn't substitute it completely....like if something calls for 1 stick of butter I would probably use 1/3 to 1/2 coconut oil and the rest butter...but who knows? Maybe you CAN substitute 100%...anyone know? I love it though. I put it in rice along with finely diced onion, red peppers, and pineapple for kick-ass hawaiian rice! You can sautee the rice in it first, remove from heat and add warm water SLOWLY then bring to a boil and cook like normal then add the veges and fruit when it's done. So yummy. I even add in more coconut oil to taste after the rice is done sometimes. I've never used it on my skin though....but I will starting tonight!
