I'm a bit obsessed with coconut oil, like most crunchy mamas are. I use it for everything and tend to have a bottle in the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and nursery. I am sure you have all read plenty of uses for coconut oil, and plenty of positive information on it. Coconut oil kills bacteria, candida, improves digestion, moisturizes, burns fat, and so much more. It can be used for more things than you might realize!
Well, here is one more list of the uses of coconut oil categorized by room, with a few you most likely haven't heard of before.
