HI ,

I use Coconut daily and feel like it is really helping my thyroid. I

will know more when I take another test in Dec. Another thing it has

done for me is detox my system. I am sold on it and will continue to use

it.

Well, I'm not totally sure that that's what it is, but I have read that it helps

to detox the body and after being on it for a couple of weeks 3T a day, my body

is starting to eliminate everytime I eat anything, so I am assuming that is what

is happening, since I have never done that before. A great place to read all

about it is www.tropicaltraditions.com It has a wealth of information.

I use it when I fix myself an egg and also if I am having a smoothie, I take my

3 T of oil, put it in a container and let it sit in hot water until it melts. I

mix up my smoothie and then add the oil and mix. If you use it in a smoothie

while it is in it's solid state it will get colder and clump, so that is why it

needs to be liquid. If I don't get it in this way I will sometimes take a

little at a time in a spoon. It has a really good taste but the texture is like

butter or crisco and is a little hard to get past that thought in my mind. I

also made a chocolate cake the other night and used the coconut oil and splenda

and it was really good. You can use it to replace any oils in any recipe.

What kind of smoothies do you make with it and how do you make them? You

can let me know when you get back if you want, I totally understand.

----- Hi Lizkins,

sometimes I make an all fruit smoothie with orange juice as my base and then

any fruit I want to add. I usually add at least a few frozen berries to make it

slushy.

I also sometimes make a protein shake. I have a vanilla brand and I just add

either cold water, juice, milk or yocurt and then maybe a banana or peach or

whatever fruit you want. I usually just make it out of whatever I have. You

can use just the protein shake without fruit and it is good that way too. If I

can think of some more I will let you know when I get back.

See ya,

Love,

Hi R,

I get mine from www.tropicaltraditions.com I have found some in the health

food stores but you have to make sure it is pure, virgin, unprocessed and it is

sometimes hard to find.

If you go to the website it will tell you all about it. But in a nutshell, it

has been given a bad rap. It is very low in trans fats. Hydrogenated vegetable

oils are the ones that are bad for you. There is a lot of information on the

site and is very good reading.
