6 naughty ways to use coconut oil (in the bedroom, kitchen and bathroom!)

We all know that coconut oil has some truly great health and beauty benefits. Or if you don’t, you can read them here to get up to speed.
But there are also some other uses for this oil that are a little more… naughty.
Intrigued? So were we. And Coconut Guru and author of Going Coconuts, Brynley King, did not disappoint.
#1: as a personal lubricant
Coconut oil is excellent for use as an inexpensive personal lubricant. According to Brynley, it has a lot more staying power than water-based lubricants, which is ideal for long sessions of lovemaking. But don’t forget to swap your latex condoms for polyurethane condoms! In some cases, oil can break down latex condoms, making them ineffective, so it’s best to switch to stay safe.
#2: to increase sex drive
Not feeling particularly frisky lately? Try adding three tablespoons of coconut oil into your diet each day. Brynley explains that both men and women who include coconut oil in their diets believe it helps to increase their sex drive. This could be thanks to the antioxidants it contains, which help to fight free radicals that can cause a low libido.
#3: as a massage oil
Der. Ok you may have guessed this one, but have you actually tried it? It smells good, won’t stain your sheets and who doesn’t love to relieve a little stress before sexy time?
#4: as edible body paint
Body chocolate is old news. Brynley recommends mixing coconut oil with raw cacao powder and honey for a naughty bedroom trick that’s not so naughty on your thighs.
#5: to fight off yeast infections
A little less sexy, but the downstairs department still classifies as naughty, right? Brynley explains that the antifungal, antiviral and antimicrobial properties in coconut oil can help combat yeast infections, either internally by digesting a few tablespoons a day or externally by massaging the area.
#6: to make yummy treats
If you’re craving a naughty treat that would normally contain a lot of butter, opt for coconut oil instead. It achieves similar results and has the ability to deliver nutrients and health benefits even when cooked at a high heat. Test it out with these delicious yet healthy peanut butter snack bars.
So what are you waiting for? Try coconut oil for yourself. Here are some of our faves:
1. Nature Pacific’s Banaban Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil ($19.95, 900mL, www.ausnaturalcare.com.au)
2. Spiral Organic Coconut Oil ($6.99, 300g, Woolworths)
3. Melrose Organic Unrefined Coconut Oil ($11.72, 300g, Coles)
Have you ever used coconut oil? Which of the above uses intrigues you the most?

I don't think some people realise how to use coconut oil. If you're worried about getting the runs from eating too much, you need to introduce it into your diet.
Start with 1/4 tsp a day for 1 week, increase to 1/2 tsp a day and so on.
Eating 3 tablespoons of it a day won't actually make you gain weight, as with anything you eat, calories in is calories out. It's a healthy fat and readily used as energy for the body.
Also, if you are in ketosis, eating just fats and under 50g carbs a day (protein, non starchy veg and fats but no sugars) will actually help you lose weight.

Is there anything coconut oil can't do?!? It is also a great fake tan remover, cover your self in coconut oil, sit for 10-15 minutes and scrub, you're tan will slide off!

Wow it really does have so many uses. I haven't tried it yet for anything but i'm really interested in trying it for oil pulling i've read that it works to whiten teeth if you do it regularly along with loads more health benifits. I'm going to try adding some coconut oil next time i bake muffins or cupcakes and see how they go! I wish i had someone to use it on me as a massage oil though that sounds amazing right now.

I'm loving all those ideas for coconut oil, it really is versatile! I'm thinking you might need a separate jar for the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom though!

Interesting, clearly the saying is right that coconut oil does everything!

I can only imagine that eating 3 tablespoons of any oil, no matter how wonderful the benefits are, will also introduce a lot of unwanted calories, and probably lubricate your digestive tract too. Not sure how frisky anyone will be when they're racing to the bathroom with the runs.

I love using coconut oil not only for cooking and baking but also as a hair conditioner or moisturiser for hands and face.

I didn't know coconut oil was so versatile. I use it in cooking, but was not aware if its many other uses.

I love coconut oil :) I use it as a moisturiser, a lip balm, for stretch marks, a toothpaste, hair serum (on the ends) and an eye makeup remover. I know it has a million other uses though!
