Getting an adequate amount of vitamins and minerals will keep your body functioning well and your energy levels at their best during weight loss. Celery does not provide a large amount of vitamins and minerals, but 1 cup does contain 8 to 10 percent of your daily needs for vitamin A, folate and potassium.
What are oils? Oils are fats that are liquid at room temperature. Oils can come from plants (vegetable oils and nut oils) and from fish (fish oils). Most oils are high in the healthy monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats and low in the unhealthy saturated fats. Oils from plant sources do not contain any cholesterol.
Coconut is the fruit of the coconut palm. The oil of the nut (fruit) is used to make medicine. Some coconut oil products are referred to as âvirginâ coconut oil. Unlike olive oil, there is no industry standard for the meaning of âvirginâ coconut oil. The term has come to mean that the oil is generally unprocessed.
