LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Health education in the Western world is more advanced than many countries in the developing world. However, several developing populations are living dramatically longer lives without any of the major health traumas that plague the developed world.
Strokes account for 10% of all deaths in the UK and are the leading cause of adult disability. Cardiovascular disease is responsible for a quarter of adult deaths in the UK every year.
Why are we, as a developed nation, suffering such great losses when there are people around the world with no evidence of these illnesses present at all? The major difference could lie in what we eat.
Many developing nations share common ground in their very high consumption of certain saturated fats. These saturated fats are found in the coconut and coconut oil they consume. Where western nations display a correlation between the consumption of non-coconut oil saturated fats and ill health, evidence demonstrates that people in the developing world – the South Pacific in particular – could connect their good health with the amount of coconut they consume.
Shore Coconut Oil helps UK residents access the health benefits that come from coconut oil by making a few simple changes to their lifestyle. Coconut oil can replace their traditional cooking oil of choice, providing a natural, non-synthetic base for dishes. Shore Coconut Oil also contributes to a healthy lifestyle from both the inside and the outside – whether through use as a cooking oil, skincare or rejuvenating hair care.
“It’s true that coconut oil is high in saturated fat – but that doesn’t make it an unhealthy oil. It’s different from butter because it contains medium-chain fatty acids. These are the ‘good’ fats – the natural fatty acids that our bodies need to function. Created amid the stunning backdrop of sun, sea and sand, coconut oil is one of the very few dietary sources of medium-chain fats. That’s what makes coconut oil unbeatable in terms of health benefits” says Tim Langford, Director, Shore, a coconut oil business based in the UK, using only virgin-pressed coconut oil from Sri Lanka.
