Breastfeeding Your Baby: Why It’s Important

Breastfeeding baby dolls have hit the market with controversy, and it’s fascinating that the means given to us by nature to feed our young is at all controversial. And apparently, it’s also controversial to teach our young about it.

It’s rather unusual that as a society, it’s far less controversial to have breasts displayed on magazine covers and inside magazines to sell products, but that their purpose for feeding our young has somehow become obscene.

Breast milk has many benefits that a store bought formula simply can’t provide. And without these nutrients, our young are far more likely to become sick.

Recently, the World Health Organization said that literally millions of lives around the world would be spared if the children had been breast feed. It’s a powerful statement that speaks to the power and importance of breastfeeding.

Aside from having an optimal protein and nutrient balance for young developing bodies, breast milk contains disease fighting medium-chain fatty acids that are natural antiviral, antibacterial and antifungal substances. These medium chain fatty acids are also found in coconut oil, and can destroy many pathogens before they become problems.

Breast milk is also a key source of healthy bacteria for our colons. These healthy bacteria are one of our body’s primary disease fighting mechanisms, and with ample amounts of these healthy bacteria, many germs and bacteria simply can’t gain a foothold in our bodies. And if those germs and bacteria can’t gain a foothold, they won’t be the cause of disease.

When you understand all of the properties of breast milk, it’s easy to see why breast milk is the ideal food for babies. Because, in addition to offering optimal nutrition, it actually works on a number of levels to protect infants from diseases in their childhood and beyond.

Nature has infinite wisdom that created this powerful substance specifically for babies, yet for some odd reason, many cultures have decided it’s in some way perverse. This cultural mindset is an unfortunate consequence of moving away from nature in many ways, and one can only hope that our children don’t suffer the consequences from this lack of understanding.

The Benefits of Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is the hottest oil on the market for the health conscious consumer - and for very good reasons. Not only is coconut oil delicious, its health benefits are profound, and each day they are becoming more widely recognized. Coconut oil been found to be a natural antibacterial, antiviral, and even anti-fungal agent. The medium chain fatty acids in coconut oil are powerhouses, and they are effective against disease of all sorts, including heart disease and cancer.

Coconut oil has properties that actually speed up the metabolism to make it easier for those with excess weight - to lose that weight. And coconut oil is easy enough to add to any meal, and as a bonus, doing so is also detoxifying and can help you cleanse your body. In fact, coconut oil can replace most oils used in cooking, and it a wonderful butter substitute.

Coconut oil once had a bad reputation as an unhealthy saturated fat, but research regularly proves that wrong. The medium chain fatty acids in coconut were confused with the truly bad long chain fatty acids in animal products, and that is where the confusion arose. Fortunately, as more and more natural health experts promote the benefits of coconut oil, the correct information is reaching the public.

Besides being wonderful in many meals, coconut oil is also a highly effective skin moisturizer. Coconut oil has highly moisturizing properties that repair the skin and even prevent premature aging and wrinkling, without what can be dangerous man-made chemicals. And although it’s light and easily absorbed, coconut oil also forms a protective barrier on the skin which serves to keep harmful bacteria out of your body.  

Knowing this, don’t you think coconut oil is good addition to your family’s daily diet? You’d be surprised at what a couple of tablespoons a day can do. You might even be encouraged to use the oil on your skin daily too for an added measure of protection in our disease ridden world.

Virgin Coconut Oil: A Natural Antiviral

For a powerful natural antiviral, nothing beats coconut oil. Coconut oil has been shown in studies to be effective against many different viruses and bacteria, including stubborn ones like AIDS. Coconut oil has unique germ killing properties called medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs); these fatty acids are quite similar to the “skin” or outer casing of many common bacteria and viruses.

Because these medium chain fatty acids are so similar to the skin of the viruses and bacteria, the pathogens mistake them for one of their own - and let them inside.

When the coconut oil is inside the pathogen, the pathogen finds that these medium chain fatty acids are actually smaller than the molecules of their skin. This actually begins to break down and disintegrate the already “leaky” outer casing or “skin” of the pathogen. Without their outer casing, the pathogen’s insides spill out and this immediately kills the pathogen. Remarkably, coconut oil does this all without causing harm to our human cells, making it both incredibly powerful and safe.

Because of these powerful anti-bacterial and anti-viral effects, coconut oil is often used in body cleansing.

Body cleansing is a way to remove common bacteria, viruses, and even chemical contamination from the body. Doing a deep body cleanse often involves colon cleansing, liver cleansing and can include a gallbladder cleanse. Many experts say that it’s this accumulation of toxins inside the body that is the underlying cause of common health problems. Actually, it’s common to remove health problems by deeply cleansing the body.

Coconut oil is a powerful accompaniment to deep body cleansing because by colon and liver cleansing, you’re quickly removing enormous amounts of waste from the body. In fact, after you kill viruses and bacteria in your body with coconut oil, colon and liver cleansing are very effective ways to quickly show those now broken up pathogen innards to the outside of your body.
