I was at the Vitamin Shoppe a couple weeks ago and they had Spectrum brand

coconut oil, 14oz jar for $5.99. The Vitamin Shoppe brand was $11. I compared

the labels and they were just about the same, I think Spectrum was even a little

better. I like to put it on toast.

Do you know what the Vitamin Shoppe charges for coconut oil. I used to get it

off the internet, can't remember the company but it was very expensive. I have

a Vitamin Shoppe near me so I would like to know more about the one they have. I

also loved it on popcorn. I didn't even need to add salt, it was so tasty.

+++Hi . No, that price was what Mountain Rose Herbs charged for 1 gallon

of unrefined coconut oil, but since then the price of all coconut oil has

increased. Mountain Rose Herbs, located in Eugene, Oregon, now charges $41.00

US per gallon, but ensure you buy the " unrefined " one since they also have the

" refined " kind: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/resource/mrh1.php

> Hi, I see references to having 6-8 tbsp of coconut oil a day, which is what i

want to build up to, but it must mean getting through quite a lot in a month and

quite expensive? Does anyone know of a cheap supplier in the UK or one that

offers this product in bulk? I hope so!

+++Hi Ian. I suggest you put UK in your Subject Line above so other members

will notice it and help you out. Ensure you buy the right kind, which must be

unrefined, unbleached, undedorized, etc. - see this article:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/coconut7.php

You start with small amounts of unrefined coconut oil and gradually increase it

because it is antifungal which will cause die-off/healing symptoms.

Taking unrefined coconut oil is a very important part of this program, which is

explained in my main candida article How to Successfully Overcome Candida which

you need to read. Also read Curing Candida, How to Get Started:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/candida/index.php

+++Hi kelly. What you see in the bottom is solidified coconut oil. If you put

+++Hi there. What is your name please? Yes coconut oil is very " heart healthy "

because " good " saturated fats are very important for the heart.

Don't believe anything you read about Cholesterol, because it is a total scam,

and heart disease isn't even caused by saturated fats from Mother nature - see

these articles:

http://www.westonaprice.org/knowyourfats/fats_phony.html

http://westonaprice.org/moderndiseases/hd.html

In order for all cell membranes to be healthy they must be constructed out of

50% saturated fat (lung cells require 100%), otherwise they will be weak.

+++Hi there. Welcome to our group. No, you shouldn't be scared of taking

unrefined coconut oil, since it is very beneficial to health - see these

articles: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/menu3_3_2.php

However, coconut oil is antifungal, antibacterial and antiviral so it will

create reactions, called die-off symptoms - see this to understand die-off

symptoms and why they are necessary during natural healing:

http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/heal2.php

Also good healing foods, herbs and spices cause healing reactions as well - see

Hi Lourdes,

No, you don't have to cook with the coconut oil if you don't want to, but you

should definitely NOT be cooking with olive oil. Olive oil goes rancid when

heated and should not be ingested when it has been heated.

+++Hi Lourdes. Like wrote you don't need to only take coconut oil by

using it to cook with. You can take it off the spoon, or poured over foods

after they are cooked, or mixed into foods like Bee's Egg Drink. Always ensure

you have coconut oil with a complete meal however since all nutrients work

together.

The very best cooking oils are: unrefined coconut oil, lard, bacon grease, which

are mainly saturated fats. For flavour you can mix them 50/50 with butter, but

always cook meats and eggs on low heat. I set my stove dial to a little less

than #2 to cook them.

Rage ... ooooh... yeeahhh... ..:):):) LOL :):):) I'm laughing now 'cause it's

easy for me to laugh at it now :):)

It took me 1 year and lot of anger and rage to figure out it was to coconut

oil... I hurt a few people then I learned to stay away from people... Gosh, and

that came with such a sense of entitlement that I was so right and everybody

else was so wrong... how dare they.. :):) Not even PMS hormones come close to

compare - u n b e l i e v a b l e!!!

You can find out for sure if you stop taking it for 3-4 days. Watch your body,

know your body. Then reintroduce a small amount. You'll know. I had better luck

with Caproil (the entire kit). Caprylic Acid is the antifungal agent in coco

oil.

enjoy the ride, life is short,

Sylvia,

you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that you can get done even more things

without anger.

I'm speaking from experience.

The reason you get things done with anger it's because of fear factor.

Fear is not good. Fear we should encounter only when faced with life threatening

situations.

Smart is the way to go about it; getting things done via responsibilities for

own actions it's more fun.

Life is to be enjoyed, every single bit of it. :)

To my understanding, coconut oil metabolizes very quick. Somewhere in the

process -for some people, not for everybody- the enzymes to not break the coco

oil in time, the liver gets overloaded, the liver makes more cholesterol for the

adrenals which make more cortisol which puts the body in fight or flight

response.

In addition, the liver is the organ that " stores " anger and resentment.

Depression is merely anger turned inward.

The Yeats Buster Kit is made purposely for slowing this metabolism down. When

the caproil (caprylic acid is antifungal agent of coco oil) is mixed together

with physillium powder and bentonite it makes the oil go to the intestine

without overloading the liver.

When I took the caproil (the kit) I did not have anger and rage.

I believed in coco oil so much, I even " preached " it to people. More so, I gave

it to my cats even tough I had research articles saying otherwise. One cat got

worse with her allergies and I increased the coco oil figuring it was just a

healing reaction. Until it got to bad and I decided to stop for few days. She

cleared in 48 hours. Their stool was lighter in color (fat) and smelled acidic

(ketoacidosis?) Few weeks later their appetite went down, took them to the vet

and got diagnosed with Fatty Liver. Ouch! Older cats actually die from these

disease. My kitties are a little over 1 yr old and I am hoping they will

reverse this.

Myself, I am still dealing with fat malabsorption after stopping coco oil for

over 1 month now.

But no more anger and rage and killing others ...

I like it this way much better.. :~)

all we need is love,

carmen

> Also, what is the relationship between yeast and water. How much should i be

drinking and should i be exercising during die off stage?

+++Our bodies cannot utilize water without good fats and minerals and candida

toxins make all of the body's cell membranes rigid/stiff so water, nutrients,

hormones, etc. aren't as able to get into them to do their job - see this

article: http://www.healingnaturallybybee.com/articles/cabout1.php

Consuming bad fats and oils has also made the cell membranes weak which need to

be re-constructed out of 50% saturated fat (butter, coconut oil, lard, etc.) -

lung cell membranes require 100% saturated fat.

We can also drink too much water, so I advise that you drink when you are

thirsty, but also ensure you are consuming 1 1/2 teaspoons of ocean sea salt

which contains over 84 minerals, and all of the supplements, along with the

" good " fats I recommend, diet, etc.

I don't recommend doing strenuous exercise when you are healing. That is

because exercise takes energy away from the body's resources which it needs for

healing itself. So that's why I recommend mild forms of exercise like dry skin

brushing or rebounding on a mini trampoline or walking. It's nutrients that

build up muscles and bone!

All the best, Bee

11 years old.

>

+++Hi Abi. You should cut back on the coconut oil and take more time to

increase it, so your son's die-off/detoxifying reactions are less severe. You

can even give him 1/4 teaspoon 3 times and day and not increase it for 2 weeks

or more, and then only increase it by 1/4 teaspoon every 2 weeks.

Also ensure he is not having foods not on the diet, since they will also cause

his reactions to be more severe. He also needs to take all of the supplements

and ocean sea salt per day.

The coconut oil is a very important part of this program so it should not be

eliminated.

I had exactly the same reaction to coconut oil at first. Sometimes I just could

not make myself swallow it. To help I have tried 2 things. First I will put some

in a drinking glass and put the glass in a pan of warm water. I turns to liquid

pretty quick and while not changing the taste, drinking it is a lot easier for

me than swallowing it in solid form. The second is that I try hard to focus on

how much better I will feel from taking it and not on how it tastes. Both seem

to help me, and like so many other things once you get used to it, its not as

bad. Just need to stick with it.

do.

You can mix it with butter and/or add spices to it to disguise the taste. Most

people start on it by making Bee's Egg Drink, which is great for breakfast:

Hi ,

Some days it tastes good to me, and other days just the smell of it makes me

nauseaus. One thing I try is sprinkling it with sea salt and taking a bite of

the solid form with my food. I find I sometimes even crave it just plain with

salt. I also know that some people freeze it and eat it as " bark " . You can

search bee's recipe site for the recipe for this.

Hope this helps,

Marcie

Hi ,

When I get bored with taking my CO the same way everyday I make a bark with

cinnamon. I melt 2 tbsp of CO with 1 tbsp butter. I then put it in a small dish

and add a pinch or two of cinnamon and mix it together. I freeze it for about 30

minutes and then enjoy! I do like the taste of CO though just plain but either

way...you could at least try this.

This may be a really stupid question. I hate the taste of coconut and it makes

me just gag. Does coconut oil taste a lot like full coconut? If so, is there a

good way to disguise the taste?
