LCA Organic Coconut Oil

What is LCA Organic Coconut Oil 100 ml used for?

Coconut oil is produced by mechanically pressing the fresh flesh of the coconut. With its mild, sweet scent, this oil offers numerous benefits. It nourishes the skin and hair without leaving them greasy, has purifying properties, and even slows down skin aging...

LCA Organic Coconut Oil will quickly become a must-have. It’s versatile and can be used in many ways by the whole family!

1. As an anti-aging oil: Richin vitamins E (an antioxidant) and A (which repairs and fights free radicals), coconut oil is invaluable for limiting the damage caused by free radicals in the skin while preserving the skin’s elasticity. It can replace or complement your daytime skincare routine, depending on your skin’s nutritional needs.
2. As a hair care product: Withits natural affinity for hair proteins, it perfectly nourishes and moisturizes normal, dry, or curly hair without weighing it down, as it absorbs quickly. It can also be applied as a detangler, just to the lengths, to make brushing easier.
3. As an after-sun treatment: Aftersun exposure, it repairs skin that has been heated and dehydrated by UV rays. It can also be applied to soothe mild sunburns and redness.
4. As an all-purpose moisturizer: Richin saturated fatty acids (lauric and myristic acids), it restores the skin’s hydrolipid barrier. It therefore easily replaces your daily body lotion. Its softening properties can also work wonders on dry cuticles.
5. As a lice treatment: It’shighly effective against these little pests, suffocating them. Apply it to the entire head of hair, like a poultice. Put on a shower cap (or a hair net) and leave it on overnight. Rinse with warm water in the morning, before shampooing once or twice.

LCA coconut oil protects the skin from external aggressors, such as the sun, seawater, pollution, etc. It effectively softens and repairs damaged skin and hair. 

Like all oils, coconut oil is composed of 100% fatty acids. But unlike other vegetable oils, 85% of these fatty acids are saturated. Long accused of causing cardiovascular disease, saturated fatty acids have gotten a bad rap. However, 65% of the saturated fatty acids in coconut oil are medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)—special fatty acids that, due to their structure, are metabolized quickly and provide energy to cells more rapidly.These MCTs therefore do not behave in the body like the long-chain saturated fatty acids found, for example, in meat. Another advantage is that they are more stable when cooked.

• It may help protect against cardiovascular disease: Since the majority of the fatty acids in coconut oil are medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs)—rather than long-chain triglycerides—their effects on cardiovascular health differ from those of long-chain saturated fatty acids. It is thought to have aprotective effecton thearteriesand theheart, particularly due to how it is metabolized: the body immediately uses the fat reserves without storing them. There is no risk of deposits that could eventually clog the arteries. 
• It can beheated to high temperatureswithout losing its properties (unlike polyunsaturated oils, such as flaxseed or walnut oil, which are very fragile and should not be heated) and thus makes frying acceptable again, which is welcome news.
• Itsease of absorption by the intestines and subsequent utilization by the liver makes it a product of choice for people wishing to follow a ketogenic diet. This diet aims to enable the body to produce its own energy without relying on external sources of glucose. This is a metabolic process that occurs naturally during fasting. Achieving the same effects without having to stop eating: this is another paradox that contributes to this oil’s success.
