Re: Colds.... using VCO back to sealady

What is Coconut Paste? So you're saying you would use whatever NUT you wanted in

a grinder, then some VCO then Coconut Paste. Where do find this product? Sounds

yummy.

You know what I LOVE. Warm toast with lots of VCO, topped with Nutella. OMG is

that delicious.

So let us all know about this Coconut Paste please.

Thanks,

Bonnie

Re: Colds.... using VCO

Doug's ahhhh gulp.. recipe sounds hmmm interesting....lol but if you are

not up to making it I would give the wild oil of oregano capsules a good

shot - I take 2 of them 4 times a day whenever I even feel like I am coming

down with a cold.

I also take a maintenance dose of twice a day whenever I travel, especially

on a plane - yuck to that air!!! I also pick up and keep on hand Kold Kare

- it is an herbal tablet that you can find on line or at the health food

store - between the two of those and the VCO I rarely get stuck with a cold

or virus.

Also taking a very long hot shower or hot bath will do a complete

re-circulation of your bodies blood - giving you an extra " cleansing " of

your infected area. This also works on any external infected area you have

on your body - the old soak it an make it better - the clue is - it needs to

be for 20 minutes to be really effective.

Hope you feel better. Oh and since you like PB & J sandwiches, have you

tired making your own nut butter using VCO for the oil and coconut paste for

a little sweetening??? It is fantastic and of course I put VCO down prior

to the nut butter on toast or sandwiches - yummo!!!

I bought my coconut paste from Tropical Traditions - it is the consistency

of a very dry peanut butter and is fairly sweet from the natural sweetness

of the coconut meat.

You can also use this to make coconut milk - just add water..and it is very,

very yummy, the kids all love it and ask for it on crackers instead of PB!!

I think some of the health food stores might have it and maybe Tess does too

at Viviendo??

I have not seen this product here in Canada yet, and if it is high in carbs,

I'll just put it out of my mind. Will you let me know the carb content?

Thanks,

It only has 1.1 gram of carbs per tsp....they actually call it coconut cream

concentrate, I have not used it to make coconut milk, but have used it in

several recipes including my nut butter and just straight on crackers.

The paste/coconut cream concentrate is spreadable, somewhat dryer than

peanut butter - if you wanted to use it just as a replacement for peanut

butter - I would add a tiny bit more oil to it, or mix with peanut butter or

your homemade butter as I do.

I have bought it from Tropical Traditions, I didn't see it listed on

Viviendo's site (coconuthaven.com) but what I did see on there is that they

have a sweetener made from coconut sap. Has anyone tried this???

I'll write to Tess and ask her. You can order from TT or Viviendo, who will

send you to a local distributor, I do know there are some in Ca.

I forgot to ask you what the Carbs were listed as, on the Coconut Cream paste

label, with Diabetes, that would be good to know.
