They called it the "tree of life" because every part of the tree--the root, the fruit, the leaves, the trunk--is utilized in a multitude of ways to support the health and survival of Kerala's indigenous people. Today, I want to discuss the health benefits of coconut oil, which has been prized as an Ayurvedic medicine for thousands of years. Though ostracized in recent decades due to its "bad-for-you" saturated fat, science is finally convincing skeptical researchers that this ancient oil has unique and essential properties for optimal health. Dr. John Douillard, DC has written and produced numerous health and fitness books, CDs, and DVDs. He has been teaching and lecturing internationally for 25 years and publishes a free wellness video-newsletter filled with the latest studies and research. He was the Director of Player Development for the New Jersey Nets in the NBA and currently directs the LifeSpa- Ayurvedic Retreat Center in Boulder, CO, where he lives with his wife and six children.
