As a health coach I love coconut oil and as a dog lover I came across this article and wanted to share it with all of you. Sometimes we forget about our furry friends and their diets. I personally have mentioned before how I give my dogs pulp from my juicing and mix it with their food and give them pro biotic for their digestive system. And now I’ll include Coconut oil into their diet as well after reading this great article and recommendations from Dr. Becker. Coconut oil consists of more than 90% saturated fats, with traces of few unsaturated fatty acids, such as monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Most of the saturated fats in coconut oil are Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs). The main component (more than 40%) of MCTs is lauric acid, followed by capric acid, caprylic acid, myristic acid and palmitic. Coconut oil also contains about 2% linoleic acid (polyunsaturated fatty acids) and about 6% oleic acid (monounsaturated fatty acids). Most of the coconut oil benefits come from the MCTs. For example, the lauric acid in coconut oil has antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-fungal properties. Capric and caprylic acid have similar properties and are best known for their anti-fungal effects. In addition, MCTs are efficiently metabolized to provide an immediate source of fuel and energy, enhancing athletic performance and aiding weight loss. In dogs, the MCTs in coconut oil balance the thyroid, helping overweight dogs lose weight and helping sedentary dogs feel energetic. According to Dr. Bruce Fife, certified nutritionist and naturopathic doctor, coconut oil gently elevates the metabolism, provides a higher level of energy and vitality, protects you from illness, and speeds healing. As a bonus, coconut oil improves any dog’s skin and coat, improves digestion, and reduces allergic reactions. Fed regularly to pets, coconut oil may have multiple benefits: Skin Conditions •Clears up skin conditions such as eczema, flea allergies, contact dermatitis,and itchy skin •Reduces allergic reactions and improves skin health •Makes coats become sleek and glossy, and deodorizes doggy odor •Prevents and treats yeast and fungal infections, including candida •Disinfects cuts and promotes wound healing •Applied topically, promotes the healing of cuts, wounds, hot spots, dry skin and hair, bites and stings Digestion •Improves digestion and nutrient absorption •Aids healing of digestive disorders like inflammatory bowel syndrome and colitis •Reduces or eliminates bad breath in dogs •Aids in elimination of hairballs and coughing Immune System, Metabolic Function, Bone Health •Contains powerful antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-fungal agents that prevent infection and disease •Regulates and balance insulin and promotes normal thyroid function •Helps prevent or control diabetes •Helps reduce weight, increases energy •Aids in arthritis or ligament problems Integrative Veterinarian and Naturopathic Doctor, Dr. Karen Becker, says “Medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) have been shown to improve brain energy metabolism and decrease the amyloid protein buildup that results in brain lesions in older dogs. Coconut oil is a rich source of MCTs. I recommend 1/4 teaspoon for every 10 pounds of body weight twice daily for basic MCT support.” Why not give coconut oil a try and introduce it to your dog? It offers many benefits for your dog and is a more sustainable and less toxic source of oils than fish. WAY OF LIFE!

Kokosovo ulje je prepuno zdravih svojstava koji pomaže svima – i ljudima i psima! Primjetili smo da u našoj grupi Francuski buldog Hrvatska često postavljate pitanje o kokosovom ulju, kako se koristi, za što služi itd. Odlučili smo i sami istražiti odgovor na to pitanje, te vam odgovore staviti na jedno mjesto. Kokosovo ulje ima mnogo zdravih prednosti za ljude ali i za pse. Prije nego što navedemo na koji način ga koristiti, valja istaknuti njegove prednosti. Zašto koristiti kokosovo ulje? Kokosovo ulje poboljšava cijelokupno zdravlje kože i raščišćuje bolesti poput ekcema, alergija od buha, kontaktni dermatitis i svrbež kože. Nevjerojatno je ublažavajuće te pomaže hidratizirati i najsušu kožu. Čini pseću dlaku sjajnijom i zdravijom. Potiče zacjeljivanje posjekotina, rana, hot spotova, ujeda i uboda. Antibakterijska i antifungalna svojstva kokosovog ulja pomoći će u smanjenju psećeg mirisa, a njegova ugodna tropska aroma daje ugodan miris psećoj koži i dlaci. Kokosovo ulje spriječava i liječi gljivične infekcije, uključujući candidu. Njegova antivirusna sredstva pomažu u bržem oporavku od psećeg kašlja. Dodavanjem kokosovog ulja u pseći obrok, poboljšava se probava i absorpcija hranjivih tvari. Kokosovo ulje smanjuje a ponekad i uklanja pseći zadah. To će olakšati posao onima koji četkaju zubiće svojim francuzima. Ono pomaže u sprečavanju dijabetesa reguliranjem i balansiranjem inzulina. Također potiče normalnu funkciju štitnjače, te pomaže u sprečavanju infekcije i bolesti srca. Pomaže u smanjenju težine i povećanju energije, a i potiče pokretljivost kod pasa s artritisom i sličnim problemima. Ulje kokosa je izvrsno za zdravlje mozga! Koristi se u sprečavanju kod demencije ljudi, ali i kod starijih pasa. Kako koristiti kokosovo ulje? Kao što smo naveli, kokosovo ulje ima bezbroj prednosti za zdravlje našeg psa. Sada vas sigurno zanima kako ga koristiti odnosno primjenjivati. Kokosovo ulje možete davati svome ljubimcu 1-2 puta dnevno sa njegovom hranom. Količina ulja ovisi o veličini vašeg psa. Mnogi veterinari preporučuju da se polako krene sa davanjem ulja. Najbolji početak je 1/4 čajne žličice dnevno za male pse te jedna cijela čajna žličica za velike pse. Ako imate pretilog psa, preporuča se da mu kokosovo ulje ne dajete više od jedanput dnevno. Osim u hrani, možete ga primjeniti kao kremu. Jednostavno, uzmite malu količinu na ruku, razmažite i nježno nanesite na pseće krzno, prolazite prstima kroz dlaku sve do kože. Ne brinite ako se počnu lizati, jer tko bi odolio finom kokosu! Veterinari preporučuju da koristite organsko, djevičansko, hladno-prešano kokosovo ulje. Možete ga pronaći u Lidlu, Mulleru, DM prodavaonicama, Bio-bio i ostalim prodavaonicama sa bio odjeljkom.
