Guest guest Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 There have been some proven benifits by using coconut oil,due to its medium chain fatty acids. i have personaly been using it in enemas for my diversion colitis and have noticed a BIG difference in the amount of inflamation!! This is much more cost effective than the tradition medications used for the colitis.It is also very sothing to irritated skin and membranes!! Also good for dandruff and a good moisturizer.It is not recommended that people with heart,artery disease or high colesterol use it for cooking however,as it is high in colesterol.These people shoild use virgin olive oil for cooking.Coconut oil is a good source of natural energy due to its easily digestable fats and good for boosting metabalism in sluggish people.I have lost 46 pounds by consuming coconut oil daily vs vegetable oil. And it makes food taste good too!!! Use only certified organic coconut oil if you want to try this diet,and use no more than 1 tsp daily,or 1 capsule daily.VERY GOOD AT RELIEVING INFLAMATORY DISEASE conditions!! Also safer than steroids!!! Please consult your physician prior to using coconut oil,and do NOT use if you have any stents in arteries or viens as the cholesterol can clog stents.
