'Shadow' of his former self: Meet the man who lost 550 pounds

Justin Willoughby

“There were so many emotions going on in my head: fear, anxiety, am I going to live or am I going to die?," says Justin Willoughby, 27.

Need inspiration to put down the fork and start moving? Consider the remarkable story of Justin Willoughby, who dropped nearly 600 pounds over a decade through sheer determination without the help of weight-loss drugs or surgery.

As a teen, Willoughby suffered from stress and severe anxiety and turned to food for comfort. He kept eating and felt addicted to food. His weight climbed to a terrifying 799 pounds when he was just 16, and the 5-foot-8-inch Willoughby feared for his life.

The Health Benefits of Coconut Oil 

Organic Coconut Oil 

The health benefits of coconut oil include hair care, skin care, stress relief,
cholesterol level maintenance, weight loss, boosted immune system, proper
digestion and regulated metabolism. It also provides relief from kidney problems,
heart diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, HIV, and cancer, while helping
to improve dental quality and bone strength. These benefits of oil can be
attributed to the presence of lauric acid, capric acid and caprylic acid, and
their respective properties, such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-fungal,
antibacterial and soothing qualities.

Coconut oil is used extensively in tropical countries especially India, Sri Lanka,
Thailand and the Philippines etc., which have a good production of coconut
oil. At one time, the oil was also popular in western countries like the United
States and Canada, but there was a strong propaganda campaign in the 
1970s spread by the corn oil and soy oil industry against coconut oil. 

Coconut oil was considered harmful for the human body due to its high
saturated fat content until the last decade (2000s) when people began to
question the claims of the propaganda.  Next, let’s look into some more
 details of how coconut oil works in our body.

When you read the ingredient label of many packaged foods, you’ll often see lots of ingredients that you can’t pronounce. Do they pose any danger to your health?

While some of these ingredients are found in non-food items (like shampoos and cosmetics), the comparison ends there. Despite scare-mongering headlines like "yoga mat material in your sandwich!" ingredients in ANY food are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration for both purity and amount included. Only purified food-grade quality ingredients are approved for use in edibles, and the amounts are tiny, when compared to non-food products. It’s the biological properties of the ingredient— like thickening, emulsifying, or absorbing moisture — that are similar.  

So, the short answer is —no, the following seven ingredients won't harm you in the trace amounts found in foods.
