Details
According to some writers Virgin Coconut Oil reduces wrinkles. They report that poor Phillipine women who cannot afford "Crisco" or vegetable oils but cook with coconut oil are less wrinkled than their wealthier friends who use the cooking oils from the supermarket.

After I started taking a daily "dose" of VCO the skin on my elbows became soft and smooth. A broken blood vessel black spot on my forhead can now be scraped off daily. This was before I applied the oil to my face.

I apply VCO to my face and hands, it is absorbed and makes my face look better. It smoothes out the roughness of the skin on my hands.

It is also claimed that coconut oil is burned for energy by the body and if the same diet is followed, then cooking with coconut oil in place of other oils will effect a weight loss.

There are now many reports on the value of coconut oil on the internet.

Virgin Coconut Oil is made from fresh coconut met. Coconut oils not sold as "Virgin" or expeller pressed are made of dried coconut, a commodity that is not kept in sanitary condition, it is then refined, bleached and dodorized, using chemicals and sold to soap manufacturers and bakers and popcorn sellers as RBD coconut oil.

The Virgin oil sells for about $50 per gallon. The RBD sells for about $10 a gallon.

Conclusions
I have been using coconut oil for six years, and am very pleased.
