Das Kokos-Buch

The first comprehensive book on coconut oil is now available in an expanded new edition. Coconut oil and its derivatives, such as flour, milk, flakes, and water from the coconut, not only taste exceptionally good but are also particularly health-promoting. Coconut expert Peter Königs dispels the myth that saturated fatty acids are unhealthy. The fatty acids from coconuts are not only excellent for cooking, as no harmful trans fats are produced when heated, but they also protect against arteriosclerosis and heart attacks, boost the immune system, and prevent the formation of harmful free radicals.

The author demonstrates how easily coconut oil and its derivatives can be used in cooking and cosmetics, providing targeted instructions on how any recipe can be effortlessly transformed into a delicious coconut dish. Since coconuts contain no gluten, coconut products are also suitable for those with celiac disease. They are equally well-suited for the dietary plans of cancer patients. The fatty advantage of coconuts: it boosts the basal metabolic rate and aids in weight loss!

This comprehensive guide offers detailed information on (un)saturated fatty acids based on the latest scientific findings, explains the positive health effects of coconut products for numerous diseases, shows application possibilities of coconut products in the kitchen, includes information on the cosmetic use of coconut oil, and covers all coconut products: coconut oil, coconut water, coconut milk, coconut flour, coconut puree, coconut flakes, coconut cream, and fresh coconuts.

The updated and expanded guide from the experienced author now also includes the use of coconut oil for dietary treatment in Alzheimer’s and dementia diseases. The special bonus: numerous new recipes with photos!.
