Coconut oil for acne? Absolutely! I\'m actually living proof of it! :-) Yes, sebaceous glands secrete sebum to keep our skin from drying and cracking. Sebum contains medium chain triglycerides (MCT). Guess what? Coconut oil contains MCTs too. In fact, coconut oil is nature\'s richest source of MCTs. Coconut oil will unclog your pores to prevent inflammation. As a simple experiment to prove this point, chew a gum and then put a few drops of virgin coconut oil (VCO) in your mouth as well. Don\'t swallow the VCO and let it mix in with the gum. You\'ll notice that the gum will melt faster than it normally would. This is what happens with your pores. Coconut oil will dissolve whatever is obstructing in your skin to keep acne at bay effectively. Just my two cents.

Do not go for the unrefined, crude one, since it may be unhygienic and may contain dust particles. Go for the refined instead. The best choice will be Virgin Coconut Oil for this purpose. It is the all-good and no-bad coconut oil.\" Isn\'t virgin coconut oil unrefined?

Your article refers to Virgin Coconut Oil for acne. Will the Pure have the same effect? Thanks.

I am curious Hope Wed, 01 Jul 2009 15:36:55 +0100 http://www.organicfacts.net/organic-oils/organic-coconut-oil/coconut-oil-for-acne.html#josc5049 I am so confused at the kind of coconut oil to buy.... i went to whole foods and got organic, unrefined, expeller pressed, virgin, coconut oil... I thought unrefined WAS the GOOD kind and meant that less processing and heat was used to produce the oil. Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:40:17 +0100
