Mango Coconut Smoothie

Coconut and mango in one drink? Yum! Coconut is one of those foods that tastes so amazing, you can’t possibly believe it’s also good for you. It’s kind of like waking up to find out that chocolate is guaranteed to grow back your hair and help you run a seven-minute mile. Coconut milk and coconut oil, which is a variation in this recipe, both contain lauric acid. Guess what else contains lauric acid? Mother’s milk. And like that most elemental of foods, the lauric acid in coconut milk and oil has antiviral and antibacterial properties. And as for fat, although coconut contains saturated fat, it’s assimilated better by the body because it’s vegetable based, not animal based (like butter). But forget all the science for a moment. You want to do the happy dance? Drink this.
