Health Note- Coconuts

Beloved, 
I wish above all things that thou mayest .....be in health....
3 John 1:2
 
 "Coconuts are especially high in manganese, which is essential for
bone health and the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and cholesterol. 
 
They're also rich in copper and iron, which help form red blood cells, as well as selenium, an important antioxidant that protects your cells.
 
If you are having trouble losing weight, then you should look into
consuming coconuts. Even with saturated fat, it is not as dangerous as saturated fat soaked in high calories and cholesterol. Coconut contains a medium-chain fatty acid that not only aids in weight loss but boosts metabolism at the same time. The fat burns off as energy rather than sticking to your belly. If
that is not enough, it maintains a balance in your digestive tract and detoxifies your body. Protects against bladder infection and kidney disease.
 
Coconuts contain lauric acid, which when digested forms a substance called monolaurin. These substances help fight against fungi, viruses and bacteria to keep infections at bay."
