You probably already know about the benefits
of coconut oil, don't you?

But, today we will learn more about the benefits
of coconut milk for our health.

Recently on the channel, we taught you how
to use coconut milk to treat your hair and

Coconut is rich in nutrients and minerals
and is a versatile fruit, as many parts of

it are consumed: water, milk, oil, sugar,
and meat.

Coconut milk is rich in important nutrients,
like vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, iron,

potassium, zinc, and phosphorus.

Additionally, it contains electrolytes and
healthy fats that improve digestive health

by nourishing the digestive lining and also
contribute to intestinal health, protecting

the body against diseases.

How wonderful is it?

See now 5 things coconut milk can do for your
health:

Helps control glycemia
Because it is low in carbs, coconut milk helps

stabilize blood sugar levels.

Helps with weight loss
Because of its medium-chain triglycerides

(MCT), coconut milk can induce satiety and
control hunger.

Thanks to that, the fat in coconut milk is
a great help during the weight loss process,

besides also supplying energy and improving
intestinal transit.

Improves cholesterol
Coconut milk is full of lauric acid, a type

of saturated fat that increases the levels
of good cholesterol in the body.

Strengthens the immune system
The fats in coconut milk reinforce the immune

system.

It contains lauric acid, lipids, and capric
acid, all of which have antibacterial, antifungal,

and antiviral properties.

The body turns lauric acid into monolaurin,
which fights viruses and bacteria.

Incredible, isn't it?

No lactose
Coconut milk is an option for anyone who is

allergic or intolerant to common milk since
it doesn’t contain lactose.

Not to mention that, compared to cow's milk,
the coconut version has fiber that keep us

satiated for longer.
