Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Cheaper? I beg to differ I went to my local Health Food Store because I , temporarily, was out of Coconut Oil... I did find an Oil that looks good and next to it was a box of VCO in capsules form..The price for the container with 60 capsules $20 dollars... I would honestly say that 300 of these capsules would occupy less than a pint... with room to spare... Advice to the poster about VCO in Capsules form. Buy a gallon and start taking a tablespoon a day.. increase to more, I personally take at least 6 Tbsp a day, Use it also as body moisturizer , you will most likely see positive changes in a few weeks Frantz lionandlamb3 <lionandlamb3@...> wrote: the coconut oil in capsules is obviously a more convenient and cheaper way to get it into your system, but it as beneficial as buying it as food? __._,_. --------------------------------- Special deal for users & friends - No Cost.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 franz -- yeah maybe i was checking prices too quickly and got confused .... yes i want to buy a gallon but a little insecure about quality and taste. i guess nutiva is a good bet. thanks. been using for about a month now ... not quite 2-4 tbsps daily (still thinking it will make me gain weight) clothes are looser. (although i am vegan now for about 6 months which may account for it) the coconut oil in capsules is obviously a more convenient and cheaper > way to get it into your system, but it as beneficial as buying it as > food? > > > > __._,_. > > > > > --------------------------------- > Special deal for users & friends - No Cost.

It is very natural process which shouldn't cause any health problems. I don't believe in perimenopause, since the term was coined by the medical industry to turn menopause into an illness so they can treat it with drugs. +++Your hormones will go on a roller coasted because of candida since its toxins cause all of the cell membranes to become stiff/rigid. Read more about this connection to hormones in " Candida Causes Cell Membrane Defects " ; http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/cabout1.php > >I take my coconut oil everyday...just wanted to know if there are coconut oil supplements i can take instead? or would that not give me the same effect as the oil itself. I use the Garden of Life brand. +++If you don't like the texture or feel of cod liver oil, you can rub it into your abdomen instead of taking it by mouth. It will be absorbed just as effectively. After you rub in the cod liver oil well, cover it with a piece of wax paper, and tape it on. You can also apply heat to it which helps absorption, but don't use an electric heating pad. Heat isn't totally necessary, just helpful. After 1/2 hour you can remove the wax paper. I found this out from a Doctor Book written in 1904. Amazing eh?

Does the taste or texture of coconut oil bother you, is that why you ask? Bigs hugs, Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I am having a problem with this too. I don't like the egg drink and I don't like to east CO plain. I was thinking of putting it in capsules. Does anyone else do this? I know it would take a lot of capsules but I have to get coconut oil somehow. I was thinking of trying to mix CO with stevia, maybe it would taste better.

After you've cooked veggies put coconut oil and butter on them too. Also you can add coconut oil to soup or tea. Bee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please ensure that Wal-Mart's coconut oil is the right one; it must be unrefined, undeodorized, unbleached, and cold or expeller pressed!
