If you want to add a variety of cooking oils to your survival stockpile, why not try coconut oil?
Aside from being a versatile cooking oil, coconut oil deserves a place in your survival stockpile because it can also be used to hydrate your skin when SHTF. (h/t to HappyPreppers.com)
Coconut oil is derived from the flesh of mature coconuts. Unrefined or extra virgin coconut oil is best because it undergoes minimal processing.
Unrefined coconut oil contains more nutrients and beneficial compounds than refined coconut oil.
As a cooking oil, coconut oil is heat stable, making it ideal for high-heat cooking. Because coconut oil doesn’t require refrigeration, this shelf-stable oil is a great addition to your pantry or stockpile.
And while other cooking oils have a relatively short expiration date, coconut oil will last about two years or so without going rancid. It is also without the adverse side effects of hydrogenated oils.
Coconut oil is unique and has a hardened state and a soft state, making it a versatile replacement for different kinds of oils that are in your pantry:
Did you know that coconut oil hardens at room temperature and softens when you heat it up? Coconut is solid at room temperature and melts at 76 F.
Because it’s solid, coconut oil can be used as a candle when SHTF. Just add a wick and you have a coconut oil candle.
Coconut oil is a popular natural ingredient for foot creams. You can try using coconut oil to hydrate and revive dry feet.
If you have frizzy hair, using a bit of coconut oil can help with split ends and tame frizzy hair.
Use a bit of coconut oil to hydrate chapped lips. Apply several drops of coconut oil to your lips and pat gently with your fingers until the oil sets. If needed, repeat this process throughout the day.
If you prefer a texture similar to lip balm, combine coconut oil with equal parts of your preferred thickening agent, such as beeswax or shea butter, before applying. This coconut oil lip balm will also give you a less shiny finish. Store extra product in a small container for easy application.
If you run out of shaving cream, shave with coconut oil and get the added benefits of smooth, moist skin.
