Here's 4 Ways To Use Coconut Oil For Weight Loss

No one can deny that exercise and portion control are generally the steadfast routes to losing weight, However, many people are constantly looking for easier options available to them. 

One 'super food' that is not embraced as much as it should when losing weight is concerned is coconut oil. This article will provide you with a list on how to use coconut oil for weight loss. 

So here we go.

How To Use Coconut Oil For Weight Loss

1. USE IT WHEN BAKING

Coconut oil does not burn under high temperatures. This means that you can effectively substitute butter with coconut oil when baking your favorite treats such as muffins, brownies, cookies and cakes. 

 

In baking, it can act as a substitute for nearly all the other oils required in the baking process and not only butter. When doing so, make sure to replace the oils using one to one ratio.

2. USING IT AS SALAD DRESSING

Regular salad dressing will rarely provide you or your body with any nutritional value. Most may even leave you much more unhealthier than they found you. 

 

Replacing this with about three tablespoons of coconut oil will help you reap both its weight loss and health benefits. 

 

If you live in an environment where if left open the coconut oils solidify, place your coconut oil jar in a jug of warm water to let it liquefy before using it.

3. NUT BUTTER

If you love peanut butter then there is a high chance you might just like coconut butter as well. 

 

And making this wonderfully healthy mix couldn't be simpler, Place about two cups of the nuts of your choice (cashew nuts, almonds, peanuts e.t.c ) into a food processor adding about two to three tablespoons of coconut oil and blend thoroughly until creamy and smooth or until to your general liking, for those of you that like your peanut butter crunchy.

4. USE IT IN YOUR EVERY DAY MEAL PREPARATION

Try to slowly incorporate coconut oil into your daily cooking routine. Replace your regular olive and vegetable oils with coconut oil. It has the ability to support any type of cooking you're generally doing during the week, from sauteing to roasting. 

Not only will it help you in weight loss, it will also add some coconut flavors to your food making the taste a little better.

So now you know how you can incorporate this super food into your regular diet to help encourage weight loss and lead a much healthier life. Improve your weight loss regiment plan and start using coconut oil today!
