Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is a great, healthier alternative to butter or other oils. Coconut oil can help boost your energy, has antimicrobial effects, can help improve the appearance of your skin, protect your hair, and that’s only to name a few benefits.
Bananas: Bananas are so versatile and this recipe for banana oatmeal muffins is a great way to use up bananas in your freezer or that are getting brown. They’re also rich in nutrients, awesome for your digestive health, and full of antioxidants.
