Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 My family prefers cream even though I'm an agent of most coconut products with Quality First International. Cream is tailored for mammalian biology, containing butyric acid, a direct food for the bowel lining cells that is used to " cure " bowel dysbiosis lesions, and stearic acid, a healthy fat, neither of which are found in coconut oil. Cream is not as high in lauric acid as coconut oil is but high enough for mammals to thrive. The American Heart Foundation points out that that even though stearic acid is a saturated fat, studies have suggested that it has little effect on blood cholesterol levels, because such a high proportion is converted to oleic acid. Butter is about 25% oleic acid, the chief component of olive oil, while coconut oil contains no stearic acid and just 6% oleic acid. Many people think extra virgin olive oil is the healthiest oil; maybe we should toss olive oil into the analysis as well. You'll see major differences in the fatty acid profiles alone when you read Greg 's oils analysis chart of common food oils: <http://members.shaw.ca/duncancrow/OilAnalysis.gif> While many water soluble and non-fat nutrients in coconut cream are also found in cream, many in cream are not found in coconut oil. Vitamin K for example, and also cysteine residues that are made into cellular glutathione, do not occur in coconut oil. Low glutathione leads to a failure to thrive and chronic illness. It appears with this study <http://cat.inist.fr/?aModele=afficheN & cpsidt=22283870> that an accurate means to determine cysteine content of cream has been devised. The text of your question Dan mentions comparing both coconut cream and coconut oil to dairy cream. That's a tough one because there are almost no similarities to compare to, but comparisons of specific components within each can be readily made. Dan, which enzymes are in coconut cream? Enzymes have a specific function we can harness if there are enough of them. But, glutathione is an enzyme that is broken down in the stomach, and other enzymes are probably destroyed in the stomach acid as well. all good, Duncan > > Does anyone have any input as to studies or personal experience with the usage of fresh raw organic coconut cream vs. organic virgin coconut oil? Bruce Fife commented that he knows of no studies! The current research is on coconut oil only. There are two people that discuss the benefits of coconut cream over the oil and are Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz and Dr. Norman . Both say that coconut cream builds a body and detoxifies it at the same time. Vonderplanitz claims that the coconut cream is most effective and efficient at drawing out heavy metals from the blood via intestinal track and lymph system. The only other point to make for the raw coconut cream is that it contains both fat and water soluble nutrients and enzymes. > > Any research or input is greatly appreciated. > > Dan Hegerich > Do The CURE > www.dothecure.blogspot.com > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi Duncan, What coconut cream would you recommend? I've been taking VCO for quite some time and can see some advantages in the cream. Would I consume as much cream as oil and where would I purchase your recommendation? Always in appreciation of your interest and generosity of spirit.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Dan, Thanks for the info on raw coconut cream. I don't make my own as you do but buy organic coconut cream concentrate from Tropical Traditions. It's probably the closest thing to making your own. http://www.tropicaltraditions.com/coconut_cream_concentrate.htm I do prefer it to the oil but do use the oil for cooking. Also, your mention of Dr. Vonderplanitz led me to a search and I came up with this (very lenthy!) interview with him. Wow, what an amazing life story. Well worth the read but still don't know if I can swallow meat raw :-). Looking forward to more of your posts.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 You are welcome Dolores. Raw meat is only a psychological issue. I am certain that you have swallowed other things that you thought you couldn't.  And how is it that we have come to enjoy the taste and smell of cooked flesh rather than raw flesh. ________________________________ From: Dolores <dgk@...> Coconut Oil Sent: Thu, November 25, 2010 1:38:05 PM Subject: Re: Fresh Raw Coconut Cream  Dan, Thanks for the info on raw coconut cream.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi Dan, Yes, it could very well just be a psychological issue. Dr. Vonderplanitz certainly makes a good case for it. Btw, I forgot to include the link to that interview with him, so will do so now. You're probably already aware of it but others may also be interested: http://www.drbass.com/aajonus.html Do you eat your meat raw?

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Yes I do eat raw meat and I am a student of Dr. Vonderplanitz. ________________________________ From: Dolores <dgk@...> Coconut Oil Sent: Thu, November 25, 2010 5:27:05 PM Subject: Re: Fresh Raw Coconut Cream  Hi Dan, Yes, it could very well just be a psychological issue.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi Anne; I'm not choosy about coconut cream because I haven't had a problem with it. The one I presently have is from either Real Canadian Superstore or Thrifty's grocer, it's called Savoy from Thai Agri Foods Public Company Ltd. from Thailand and it's 20% fat. If the coconut cream is not separated, at 20% oil it would take five times as much to get the same amount of oil you'd normally take. all good, Duncan > > Hi Duncan, > > What coconut cream would you recommend?
