Coconut oil contains compounds that protect the skin from the sun ray's while allowing natural Vitamin D formation to take place in the skin layers. You can find the use of this coconut oil in Suncare :)


Herbal Folk Tradition

One tree can produce forty coconuts annually. The tree is indispensable to the survival of millions of people, who rely on it as a primary source of food, drink, clothing, and shelter. The coconut fruit is regarded as one of the most important foods to one-third of the world’s population.
In Latin America, nursing mothers rub coconut milk on their breasts to reduce inflammation. It is also taken as a diuretic. The flesh of the nut assists to expel intestinal parasites; the root decoction reduces excessive bleeding during the menstrual cycle. It is also used for toothaches and as a mouth-wash.


The people of Papua New Guinea treat diarrhoea and stomachache by chewing onto coconut leaves and young plants. Ghanaians use the coconut milk to alleviate diarrhoea too. Fijians apply coconut oil to prevent hair loss and drink coconut water to treat renal disease.

In India, the locals use infusions of coconut flower to help treat menstrual disorders. The Indonesians apply the oil to wounds, drink coconut milk as contraceptive and use coconut root extract to relieve fever and diarrhoea.
