RE: Young coconuts from Thailand [s]

[Guest guest]

As I recall, they are soaked in an antifungal, but not irradiated. But the

antifungal DOES soak through the husk to the interior to some degree, never

measured to my knowledge. So they are poisoned. Sorry to be the bearer of

bad news.

It would definitely make them NOT raw. Don't know if they are irradiated

though. Lane

Does anyone know if the young coconuts from Thailand are

irradiated? & nbsp; <BR>

If they are does this make them not raw anymore? & nbsp; Thanks.<BR>

Correct, microwaving food is a method of irradiation. Irradiation of ANY

life is bad. Mammograms are terrible for women -- some researchers believe

they actually cause the majority of the breast cancer.

 

We are designed to live in the sun's radiation, filtered through an

atmosphere with a nice layer of ozone to protect us. We are not designed to

be x-rayed nor to eat anything irradiated.

Irradiate - to expose to radiation. I don't know what that means but

it sounds like something similar to microwaving. Heating something

in any way is not raw to me.
