One of the benefits of coconut oil is its long expiration date. Many natural oils very quickly become bad (rancid), and in order to prevent this they are treated with chemicals to extend their shelf life. These hydrogenated oils are very harmful to the body, especially for the thyroid gland. On the other hand, coconut oil is very difficult perishable and does not require harmful processes to extend shelf life.
Studies have shown that coconut oil increases the body's resistance to viruses, bacteria and fungal infections especially those caused by Candida, and it's all because of boric acid which it contains. It is a natural fighter against bacteria and very successfully for treating stomach ulcers and Helicobacter.
