Coconut Boosts Brain Function

Additional research has shown that regular MCT consumption in dogs with “age-related

mental decline” increases the phospholipid and omega-3 fatty acid (EPA & DHA) content in the parietal cortex of the brain (11).   Omega 3 fatty acids are found in fish not coconut oil.  The researchers believe that the presence of the MCT’s allowed omega 3’s to be liberated from fat stores & utilized in the brain where they are most needed to help form solid memory centers.

The average sized adult should consume 3-4 tablespoons of coconut oil daily.  This could be taken orally, added to food, or applied onto skin.  It can be taken in the form of coconut oil, milk, meat, or flakes.  Coconut milk provides approximately 1 Tbsp of coconut oil for every 3 ounces.   People with diabetes(type 1 & II), or neurological disease would benefit from up to 8-10 tablespoons of coconut oil daily.
