Why are Chavs like slinkies? They have no real use but it's great to watch one fall down a flight of stairs.

Singularis: oil
Pluralis: oils

Apostrohpe+s=genitive unless it's "it's" in which case it means it+is.

At least it didn't read "OIl's and there benefits" :lol:

The oils I'm using at the moment are just coconut oil and hemp oil.

http://www.coconutoilcompany.com/

http://www.goodwebsite.co.uk/index.php

I think everyone knows the benefits of both, but the coconut oil is used because it's mostly satutrated fat, so high smoking point, very low oxidation rate etc, but also is 50%+ medium chain triglyceride which is the easiest absorbing 'energy' fat. Also, while a fair bit of the saturated fat in coconut oil comes from saturates which raise cholesterol (lauric and myristic acids), coconut oil also has oleic acid as it's main unsaturated fat which when taken with these two limits their normal LDL cholesterol raising effect.

Hemp seed oil is great for it's 3:1 balance of omega 6:omega 3 fats, and a decent level of GLA which is a good fat with lots of benefits.

You know there are people that use apostrophe+s in danish for plural. Funny bit? we don't even use it for creating genitive in danish except on words that ed on an S.

Never look back with regrets and think "what if" for that way madness lies. There are those that will envy you and try and undermine you. They are not worth your time.
