New book presents ‘Perfect Health Nut’ lifestyle to Cebu

Cebu City, Philippines - After a successful book launch in Manila, Dra. Vermén M. Verallo-Rowell, an award-winning dermatologist, will be in National Bookstore at SM City Cebu on Aug. 6, from 3-5 p.m. to launch her book, Rx: Coconuts! (The Perfect Health Nut): How the Coconut Can Enhance Your Life and Well-Being.

This book, made available through the Print-on-demand (POD) publishing services of Xlibris, Inc., sets the record straight on what used to be a controversial “nut” in the health realm plus introduces a fresh invigorating lifestyle with this tropical fruit.

The fruit has been experiencing rising and lowering popularity as mixed health studies and advertisements proclaim the fruit either as unhealthy or as an essential for beauty. With almost everybody being health-conscious these days, people would rather be safe than sorry. But Verallo-Rowell shares not just the good news, but the facts to your coconut questions in her groundbreaking book as well.

Beneficial to people’s health

Her book is on a quest to educate readers on why the coconut is the perfect health nut. In Rx: Coconuts! she explains that coconuts are not just a delicious fruit to eat but they are also very beneficial to people’s health. Through numerous ways, she explains why coconuts are beneficial for the human heart, how it can help in making us more resistant against cancer, how skin improves and becomes reinvigorated. The book has tables that show the calorie differences among different oils and why coconuts can make us lose weight.

Despite being a saturated fat, coconut oil is 100% cholesterol-free and it is safe to consume, even for dieters.

The book also explains that coconuts can give people natural antibiotics that can even control acne and disinfect skin.

Verallo-Rowell created special guides and easy-to-understand narrations covering a wide range of topics that include data about the different kinds of fats, coconuts’ direct benefits for improving skin and hair beauty, the many forms of coconuts, and the benefits human cells receive from them. Plus, the author gives a bonus of coconut recipes which make the book an instant prescription for readers seeking a healthy diet and a vibrant lifestyle.

Credible info

Rx: Coconuts! (The Perfect Health Nut) holds a huge amount of credible information and believable facts making this book a great buy for the medical professional or the self-confessed health nut. With many years of research, dermatology, and medicine behind her, the author crafted her book specifically to give people a real understanding of the fats and oils they consume, which helps people judge the coconut more intelligently and understand the benefits this fruit can give in all its forms.

Verallo-Rowell published Rx: Coconuts! through the services of Xlibris, Inc., a leading print-on-demand publishing service provider that makes her book available even in the United States and on popular websites such as Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.
