Coconut has been lauded for years as a wonder product for hair. Every other pin on Pinterest includes a homemade conditioner recipe featuring coconut to rub on your head. However, hair health starts from the inside out. Your hair cannot fully realize all the benefits of coconut just from external use. Eating coconut helps stimulate your hair growth as well as increase the healthiness of your hair. What better way to do that than with CAcafe?
Growing up, I learned that I should avoid fatty foods. All fat is dangerous and bad for me. Why would I want to eat fat? Fat is bad for your heart! However, the idea that all fat is bad fat is simple not true. Why then was I taught that I should avoid any and all fat? The answer, it turns out, is complicated, but one thing is for sure: coconuts are rich in saturated fat, and it's partly because of that that they're so incredible.
Today I came across this interesting and compelling study done by Lindeberg S and Lundh B. They examined the population of the Trobriand Islands, located in Papua New Guinea. They were looking at the population's cardiac health and diet and found a striking difference between the islanders’ heart health and a typical Westerners’ heart health. That is, the islanders pretty much didn't have any heart problems, whereas Westerners had way too many. Interestingly, one thing different about the islanders is their generous incorporation of coconut into diets, and what easier way to add coconut to your meals like the islanders do than by drinking CAcafe?
We have done a previous post about how coconut can boost your immunity, but we have found another study that explains how great coconut can be for keeping your body healthy. E.V. Carandang reviewed many articles about coconut and summarized their claims and findings in a 2008 journal post. The researcher stated that “MCT provides wellness for individuals suffering from...
Cancer is a topic that nobody wants to think about but has touched almost every family and friend. Most people know several others who have had cancer or even have had cancer themselves. The search is on for a cure and researchers and doctors have been exploring any option to help those who are suffering. With this search has come the rise of holistic and natural ways to help treat and prevent cancer. I decided to look into the research and see if there was anything I could do to keep myself healthy, and once again, coconut and coffee are top contenders.
Iron is not something I normally think about in my diet. I try to make sure I am eating enough fruits and vegetables, not too many carbs, and a lot of protein. I usually assume that as I am focusing on eating right, all the vitamins and nutrients I need will automatically fall into place. That is not necessarily true. If you’re like me, then you know you should have iron but you do not know why, or you have heard the word anemia but are not sure how it affects you. Today, I'll explain just what anemia is and how CAcafe can help you prevent it.
At CAcafe, we have the utter joy of hearing from our fans about how much our product has helped them. It warms our hearts to read their stories. We frequently get calls, emails, or contacted through social media with a fan telling us how our product has helped them lose weight. Some have stories of significant changes in weight while others were pleasantly surprised to see 5 lbs missing from the scale. You can read their stories here, but it is just another benefit of many stemming from the whole coconuts that are used to create our products.
I have known my whole life that I am a klutz. I am constantly tripping on flat surfaces (which takes a lot of skill) or stubbing a toe. Recently, I hurt my finger when I accidentally shut it in a door. The finger is all healed now, but at the time, the swelling was agonizing. I did everything I could to help the throbbing pain stop: rest, ice, compression, and elevation. However, I did not know that there was something else I could have done to help my body. How could having a cup of coconut coffee help my finger?
Cholesterol is affected by many things. Your family history, weight, and activity level all contribute to the cholesterol levels in your body. Food is another contributor to high blood cholesterol. People with high blood cholesterol have to monitor their food, increase physical activity, and may even need to take medicine to help. If you have high blood cholesterol, though, you might want to learn more about how coconut water helps your body fight to maintain a healthy cholesterol level.
I have always been a coffee drinker. I can remember begging my dad to let me sip some of his magical looking coffee in the mornings. I knew it had to be delicious because all the adults would drink it every morning, and I was RIGHT. Coffee is so wonderful. However, now that I am getting older, and hopefully wiser, I have a growing appreciation for tea. As I do more research, I'm more and more in awe of the benefits of green tea and how I can so easily and deliciously reap them with CAcafe's coconut tea.
