so, that's what you do with that stuff
I recently went out and bought a $17 jar of coconut oil, because I had heard that it was so good. I got it home and then realized I had no idea what I was supposed to actually do with it. Was i supposed to just stick a spoon in the jar and force it down my throat? Then I found this book. It painted the picture for me and left no doubt that this is truly a beneficial product. Well worth the read!

Pretty straight forward with lots of food recipes that incorporates coconut oil. When they talked about the different ways coconut oil can be processed, that was a little confusing but I'm sure with a more focused re-read I could figure it out. Did the audio book version to this one.
Would like to have seen or heard more about the topical uses of coconut oil, more recipes of that nature. It Didn't seem balanced on that avenue.

Good introduction to the benefits and uses of coconut oil. It is what the title states, Coconut Oil for Beginners.

This would be a good introduction to coconut oil. It mostly covered what I have already read.
What irks me about books that tell me to throw away processed foods and sugary junk food are books that proceed with recipes for the same sugary types of foods, such as cinnamon rolls. Once I got to the recipes I gave up reading. Outside of pouring a little on my GMO-free popcorn, and possibly a little on my gluten-free bread for toast, or frying my tofu in for an addition to salad, I see that all those recipes in this book will only bring back the little weight I might have lost. The bright side is that it has been proven to me to be a healthier choice of oil to any other, especially for those with diabetes.
I feel swindled that I had to pay $2.99 for this book. Had it been free or just $.99 I might have raised this a star.

A great introduction into the benefits and uses for coconut oil. I particularly like the explanations of the different types of oil and which ones to buy and which ones to stay away from. I haven't used any of the food recipes yet, but my family and coworkers are getting lip balms and moisturizers for Christmas! I absolutely love the coconut oil mixed with a cherry flavoring oil as a lip balm :). So many wonderful ideas in this book - I am addicted.

Concise and informative
Book is like a detailed overview for the busy beginner. It gives enough information on the why's, a few useful examples, and some recipes to get started. Inquisitive people might want to do additional research, experienced users would find it useful to recommend to newbie friends. Highly recommended.

Practical advice and recipes.
After being advised to use coconut oil and hearing of the benefits I purchased some then wondered how do I use this product to get the best benefits. This small book was recommended to me and I am ready to use my coconut oil. The book covers internal and external uses as well as lots of recipes.

Good guide for an introduction to the wonder of coconut oil. It is so much praised that I could not not ask myself "how come we're not eating coconut oil all day long?"
The good part is that it is also practical, having both beauty recipes, but also cooking ones, which makes it all much easier to start using it.
I recommend it as an introductory quick-to-read course.

Very quick read. The book includes a brief overview of the benefits of coconut oil use in each of the listed categories and then includes recipes for home made products as well as meals. I've used it on my face a couple times and it doesn't feel super greasy so I might stick with it!

Great Information
I had no idea this product is good for you. I bought this book as coconut oil was recommended for the health of my puppy. We will now be using it for the whole family.

April 18, 2018I really wanted to learn more about coconut oil since I've discovered it's life changing properties, and this book was a great resource! It talked about the science behind it while also giving examples of practical uses. It was split up into sections with ideas for skincare, hair care, cooking etc using coconut oil. Very informative!
