Coconut Oil Benefits and Paleo Zucchini Applesauce Snack Cake
Without
good health, all of the wealth in the world means absolutely nothing… Except to
your heirs!
When I first started learning about the
Paleo Lifestyle, back in October of 2011, a good friend of mine told me about
Coconut Oil Central dot com (I had read about CO, but thought it was more for
athletes).
Did you know that consuming about 4
Tablespoons daily does wonders for you?
“Regular consumption of MCFA-rich coconut oil
aids the body in eliminating disease-causing
germs, thus relieving stress on your immune system.
Coconut oil takes over
the job of destroying many of the invading microorganisms.
With less work to do, your white blood cells can now focus their attention on
cleaning out toxins and all kinds of undesirable cells.”

Did you know you can brush your teeth
with it, rub it in your scalp, rub it on your feet, do oil pulling with CO,
cook with it, eat it straight from the jar… and the list goes on!
It took me a while to try CO in my
coffee, but it sure is good! And I didn’t know how creative I actually am… LOL
I would like to see any coffee house do
this!
I also discovered a site, which this
recipe is adapted and now I really love using this recipe base for Banana
Bread, Pumpkin Bread, Carrot-Apple snack cake and now Zucchini Applesauce Snack Cake.
The whole family will enjoy this Paleo Zucchini Applesauce Snack Cake…
