Is it good to rub palm kernel oil on the body?

What: For??? I can tell you only that like many many other "health" producing items THERE IS LITTLE TO NO EVIDENCE BASED MEDICAL STUDIES supporting it's use!!~ The above has been used to treat PSORIASIS and as a SKIN MOISTURIZER it is no more effective than any other OIL based product! Hope this is helpful! Dr Z
