Often soap and water is not enough to get pine sap off your hands. Try rubbing your hands with oil or butter first, to loosen the sap. Then follow with warm water and dish soap. Rubbing alcohol also works but be sure to moisturize your hands after, it can be very drying.

Coconut oil are two type edible and non edible. Non-edible oil uses for as a external. Only visiable impurity removed. In edible oil impure matter removed upto several level by different diffrent chemial.

Technically it could be any of those, depending on the type of cooking oil.

Once every week to two weeks. Using another oil and not letting your natural oil from your hair to repair your hair itself can damage your hair. Washing your hair too often, using too much heat and hair products and also damage your hair. Wash your hair once every three days or more if you can handle it. I do it once every two weeks.

I guess it would, but it would be a poor choice. Vegetable oil can be irritating to the vagina. A much better choice would be a lubricant that does not contain a petroleum byproduct....like astroglide and Kroger brand K-Y jelly. If you want a natural plant based lubricant use something like Liquid Goddess that uses raw, micro-filtered extracts, not cooking oil!

That is 6.666 tbsp.

No. Oils can be soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform or hexane.

Every food with fat contains at least some saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat. So yes, coconut contains some monounsaturated fat- but it's not very much. Coconut oil is about 90% saturated, which is extremely high compared to any food stuff. Olive oil, canola oil, certain nuts (walnuts and pecans especially) even avocados would be better sources of monounsatured fat

There are 5,000 mg per teaspoon. So 1,000 is about 1/5 teaspoon

No, coconut oil do not dissolve in kerosene

Virgin Coconut oil enhances the color of our hair, gives it a soft feel and even helps combat dandruff. You don't even have to climb a coconut tree or pay an overly priced spa to get it. It is sold in most hair supply stores for under $8 dollars. Follow these simple steps:

Deep Treatment: Add a few tablespoons of pure virgin coconut oil to dry or slightly damp hair. Wrap the hair in a hot, wrung out towel or plastic bag, then cover with a thick dry towel. Allow the oil to work into hair for at least 30 minutes. The heat will allow the oil to penetrate and fully moisturize your hair.

Smooth Style: Add about half a teaspoon of coconut oil to damp hair after washing. Keep oil away from roots to avoid a greasy look. It's best to start out with a small amount and add as you go because it's really easy to go overboard. The only way to reverse an oily do is to wash again.

Relief from Dandruff/Scalp Conditions: Coconut oil has anti-fungal and anti-microbial qualities that help combat dandruff and bacterial scalp infections. Apply virgin coconut oil to the scalp. Occasionally leave it on for a prolonged period (30 minutes or so) before shampooing.

Hair Loss: Coconut oil is even believed to slow hair loss by revitalizing and exfoliating dead skin tissue from the scalp. Apply the oil directly to the scalp and massage with your fingertips for 5 minutes. Shampoo as usual.

You can make homemade exfoliating cream by using sugar and other ingredients. You can also use baking soda, coffee grounds and sea salts in different combinations.

The oils are probably not interchangeable on any dish. They have very different tastes...

Coconut oil is much higher in saturated fats than olive oil. So much higher that it's melting temperature is only76F. Whereas, olive oil has so few saturated fats, that it's melting point is only 21F, lower than that of water.

Being a plant oil, there is no cholesterol, but the high saturated fat content makes it a not so inviting oil to use for regular cooking. If there is a special dish that requires the oil, and it's flavor, I would use it, but not in regular cooking.

Fresh grated coconut

Add warm water to the grated coconut and stir

Squeeze the mixture and collect foam off the top.

Heat the foam mixture careful not to burn till water evaporates.

Separate oil from sugar.

Determining how many cups are in 2 pounds of coconut oil can be difficult. Cups and pounds are two very different measurements. The answers would be different depending upon if the coconut oil is in liquid form or a solid. For this reason, it is ideal to test out each option for the best results.

It depends on the recipe. If the recipe requires a large proportion of vegetable oil and you're hoping to substitute it with coconut oil it is not a good idea since coconut oil has a distinctive taste which will overpower the whole dish.

Generally, it is a good idea to substitute vegetable oil with something like canola oil since it has no taste rather than coconut oil.

It is a liquid at room temperature: 24 °C (76 °F) and above if it is virgin coconut oil . But it is usually found as hydrogenated product so it will be a solid if it has been processed. Therefore it depends on which type you have.

I suppose it would depend on what you are baking. I have used coconut oil to replace butter in my gluten free pineapple up-side down cake. I have not yet tried to use it for other baking, but it works beautifully in the cake recipe.

Yes, it does cure acne and blackheads. Coconut oil has been fantastic on my skin which used to be irritated and full of acne, blemishes of old pimples, scares, freckles and dark spots (Keep your fingers crossed). It does absorb into the internal layers of the skin in almost no time; leaving your skin oil-free. It can make your scares and blemishes disappear in a couple of days. My advice to you is to go right away to the nearest health food store and get your own bottle of coconut oil.

Whenever tanning, either indoor or outdoor is best to use a tanning lotion and not oils. Oils are more likely to burn your skin, and do not give you the nutrients you need in your skin to hold a tan and the lotions help prevent the 'leather skin' from over sun exposure. NEVER let your skin burn, burning is the main cause of skin cancer. And, not all burns turn into a tan, it CAN if its not a bad burn.. but most likely your skin will peel off leaving lighter patches where you burned.

Coconut oil seems to have anti-viral properties, primarily from its potent lauric acid, that may assist in mono recover. As of now, however, coconut oil aiding in mono recovery is mainly linked to anecdotal stories. It's worth a try though! Coconut oil should not be used as treatment for any disease or ailment. Please consult with your doctor to instruct you best how to deal with your specific illness, in this case, mono.

Coconut oil is composed of lipids (fats) which are nonpolar compounds that are not miscible with water, which is polar.

The chemical reason is a bit complex and involves physical chemistry to explain, but in short, nonpolar molecules do not carry much of a partial charge distribution, while polar molecules do. As far as polar and nonpolar compounds go, "like dissolves like" is the general rule and so polar compounds like to stay with polar compounds (this is why water and vinegar will mix) and nonpolar compounds like to stay with nonpolar compounds (mixing oils - although, depending on the density, these may separate with time). A brief chemistry explanation: the association of polar compounds with nonpolar compounds is energetically unfavorable and so these molecules do their best to not associate with each other because it would require an energy input to do so. In general, chemical systems try to stay at the lowest energy level possible and so adding energy to put two molecules together is an energy-involving process, which makes it less favorable and therefore less likely to occur. This is called the "hydrophobic effect".

step1. dry it, preferably in the sun. 2. separate oil from residues. Add sugar and seal it. Shelf life is improved but only moderate, say a month. Unrefined, crystal salt seems better, still it becomes stale when heating with chopped potato refines it, but suitable only for immediate use. I do not have info on chemicals used to improve shelf life over a reasonable period, say 6 months to a year.
