I just take a dime size of coconut oil in my hand and rub my palms until it's melted. I then flip my head and apply mainly to my ends (my hair is dry). On the weekends, I massage it into my scalp and leave for 20 minutes, then wash. Otherwise, every 2 days I wash my hair and this is part of my routine. I leave it in for 20 minutes then do my usual wash and condition. I have been doing this routine now for 2 months and I have to say, my hair feels much healthier, less split ends, and it's not as frizzy. For the first time in my life, I can look in the mirror and love my hair!!

I have tried to take it by the tablespoon, but can not stand the taste. Can I take it with something to make it more bearable?

How do you take it? Like just on a spoon or mix it in something? I tried years ago to mix it in hot water and it made my stomach cramp. I had to quit using it. I would like to try it again to see if it will help my hypothyroidism and help me lose 20 to 30 pounds.

I would like information on a noninflamatory diet. Also, ideas on how to make smoothies using coconut oil. My husband does not like the flavor of coconut at all and so I would like some ideas on how to add it to his diet. He has chronic back pain. And from those drugs, memory loss, depression, etc. Thanks so much! I am very exited to get going with this in our home!

Dear Ellen, I would like to hear more about your non-inflammatory diet. please :) Larisa (England UK) -------------------------------------------- Original Message: -------------------------------------------- Posted: 1/6/2011 By: Ellen The first thing I want to tell you is if you stay with the coconut oil and I highly recommend you do, then you will get worse before you get better. This is because you will go through a detox. The coconut oil gets right in there and starts removing toxins immediately and you feel like you are craving it because your body needs it to heal. What you have is what I had many years before and it's called demodex mites. The only way I got rid of mine was with coconut oil. I was using the oil as a moisterizer and it is the only thing I put on my face. Even if you use a moisterizer with coconut oil in it your are still putting toxins on your face from the other ingredients so please just use the oil alone. There is absolutely no need to use anything else. You will be so happy with this in itself as it is anti-inflammatory and will reduce fine lines and wrinkles over time. I also experienced this first hand. I am 48 now and look 38 if not younger. I used to have deep laugh lines until I changed my diet and added coconut oil to it. I replaced all my other fats with coconut oil although I do take an omega 3 fish oil called ascenta nutra sea fish oil. Other than that I only use coconut oil for my baking, cooking and as my butter. It tastes so much better and is health promoting and reduced inflamation in my body so obviously that I got hooked. I used to never tan as I had awful, white, white, white skin until I changed my diet to alkalize my body and added coconut oil as a tanning lotion all over my face and body. Now I never burn and have a healthy brownish glow (for me). I'm much happier, way more balanced as coconut oil balances all your systems especially the thyroid, heart, digestive, well all of them. It transforms your life and brings you into balance so you can live your life to the fullest with an amazing energy and zest for life. Your brain needs this oil as well because it is made of fat and there are so many frankinfats that people ingest all the time that this is why there is so much rage in the world. Your brain needs coconut oil and omega 3, but a high quality omega 3. If you don't want to take the fist oil I recommend and it's easy believe me. Then eat walnuts everyday. They are also rich in omega 3 and are so delicious. Eat one good handful a day and your good to go, but take out all other fats from yoru diet other than the coconut oil. You will be doing your body a lot of good and feel so much better, healhier, happier and stronger for it. I have been using coconut oil for only 2.5 years, but I have transformed in this time and will never go back. Good luck, Ellen p.s. if you want information on a noninflamatory diet, then please respond to this and I will tell you exactly what you need to know to greatly improve your health. It tastes amazing and makes you feel equally as amazing. -------------------------------------------- Original Message: -------------------------------------------- Posted: 1/6/2011 By: Ellen The first thing I want to tell you is if you stay with the coconut oil and I highly recommend you do, then you will get worse before you get better.

Re: Refined Coconut Oil- a question [Forum: General]

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 00:39:00 EST

Hi Ivonne, When purchasing coconut oil, one must determine between “virgin” and “refined.” The determining characteristic of virgin coconut oils is that they are made from fresh coconuts, and they have the distinct aroma and taste of coconuts present. Tasteless coconut oils are probably made from copra, not fresh coconuts. There are also some oils that are made from copra that are not fully deodorized and have a taste to them. But these oils are refined also, despite marketing claims. You will be able to taste the difference when comparing with a Virgin Coconut Oil. There are many ways of refining coconut oil made from copra, some more beneficial than others. But virgin coconut oils start out with fresh coconuts, and do not need further refining as their natural antioxidant properties make them very stable oils. I personally recommend a traditional handmade virgin coconut oil. Mary Enig reported in her article that the effects of coconut oil on persons with low cholesterol levels was the opposite of persons with high cholesterol levels. Of persons with low total cholesterol counts, she wrote that 'there may be a rising of serum cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and especially HDL cholesterol.' In persons with high cholesterol levels, 'there is lowering of total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol.' The studies she cited showed that in both groups the LDL/HDL ratio moved in a favorable direction. In persons with AIDS or immune-compromised from other causes, the conclusions of this research are profound. It means everything the public has been told about vegetable oils on television for the past 15 years has been half truths and leading the public to the wrong conclusions. The public has been led to believe that tropicals will clog your arteries and cause heart disease. In fact, the opposite is true; natural tropical oils will help prevent hardening of the arteries while most liquid vegetable oils will increase hardening of the arteries!

Marianita -------------------------------------------- Original Message: -------------------------------------------- Posted: 1/6/2012 By: Ivonne I bought refined coconut oil thinking it was the same thing than Pure Coconut Oil. I would like to know if the benefits of the refined Coconut Oil are the same for the cholesterol levels. I have been using it in my food, about two teaspoonfuls (I heat it and when liquid pour it over the food). I live in Miami and I don't have a clue where to find the Pure Coconut Oil. If anyone has an idea I would also like to know. Thanks for the help! Ivonne*

Hi Glenda, I'm posting some testimonials from Coconut Diet Forum. Hopefully, it will give an idea on how to start. Marianita 'Over the past 18 months I’ve lost 107 pounds, going from 316 to 209 and from 52 to 36 pants (19 pounds to go). I lost the weight following a low carb, no sugar or grain, high saturated fat and high protein diet and eliminating ALL soy products and ALL polyunsatured vegetable oils. I used about 2 or 3T of Virgin Coconut Oil daily. Chuck (Coconut Diet Forums) 'Last year I was measured at 10.5% body fat. Last month, I hiked up my consumption [of Virgin Coconut Oil] from 4 tbsp /day to 6 tbsp/day. At the same time, I limited my carb intake at dinnertime. In a few weeks time, my bodyweight increased by about 4lbs. but body fat decreased to 9.6% – I did not change my workout intensity or frequency. My trainer is wondering what the heck am I taking (chest and thigh measurements increased). It blows ‘em away when I say that I take Virgin Coconut Oil straight up. MG' 'It’s VCO and low carbs. I feel better than I have in a long time, my temp is actually over 98 (not all the time, but it’s better than those 94.5 readings). I’m a believer and hope to stick with it! I haven’t seen a big weight loss, but my clothes fit better and I know adding an exercise program will impact the weight.
