FREE Coconut Oil Gift Box!

Happy Thursday, Everyone!

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard some buzz about the craze that is coconut oil. Coconut oil is considered to be a superfood and has a track record of very profound positive effects on health due to the unique combo of fatty acids.

Here’s some health benefits of coconut oil, just in case you didn’t know already!

  1. Fatty acids in coconut oil are metabolized differently and go straight to the liver from the digestive tract, where they’re used as a quick source energy — this can have therapeutic effects on brain disorders like epilepsy and Alzheimer’s.
  2. It helps you burn more fat! In science-speak, the medium chain triglycerides in coconut oil has been shown to increase 24-hour expenditure by as much as 5% – leading to significant weight loss over long term.
  3. Coconut oil can battle infections and bacteria, like viruses and fungi inside of your body.
  4. It’s an appetite reducer! Studies have shown that people who regularly eat coconut oil will eat significantly fewer calories over the course of a day.
  5. Coconut oil can improve blood cholesterol levels and thus lowers the risk of heart disease.
  6. Coconut oil protects your hair and skin! Not only does this product help you on the inside, but on the oitside too. Coconut oil defends against hair damage and can work as a sunscreen and moisturizer.
  7. Some like to use coconut oil as a mouthwash of sorts. This is called oil pulling, and kills harmful bacteria in the mouth, improves dental health, and reduces bad breath.

The Honest Company

I was lucky enough to see Jessica Alba speak about her company, The Honest Company, at SXSW in Austin this past March. Knowing very little about The Honest Company going into the panel, Alba blew me away.

The company makes nontoxic, eco-friendly products for children and the household – generating $150 million in sales in 2014. Alba shed a ton of light on the chemicals introduced into our household on a daily basis by buying big name brands – attributing a lot of her own family’s allergies, rashes, etc. to contact with these toxic ingredients.

So much immediately hit home. From the fact that I have to  use clear, unscented detergents in my own home, to an immediate transition to organic upon having children. You want to provide the best products and keep them pure, safe, and happy. The Honest Company embodies this – their ethical products are what I’ve been using for my household needs since.

Alba was so incredibly well spoken and clearly passionate about her cause. I’ve been scouring the internet to find some snippets of her video, and all I could find were articles discussing how she debuted her latest haircut during this panel. ::sigh::

Lucky for all of you – The Honest Company is offering a FREE sample discovery kit of diapers, wipes, essentials and/or health & wellness products so you can check them out for yourself. Order your free trial and enjoy all of the amazing products that they have to offer. They’re so much more than just a famous face to the brand!
