Re: Fresh coconut question

> HI Bee, Thanks for your helpful info. Question: I live in a

tropical country and believe it or not although fresh coconuts are

plentiful, coconut oil is not extracted for cooking. We cook with

the coconut milk. I assume that's okay for candida sufferers?

==>Hi Keziah. Welcome to our group! What country are you from? No

coconut milk is not okay for candida sufferers since it contains too

much natural sugar, unlike coconut oil.

> Also the raw coconut in its green form can be found, before it

matures and the skin develops a brown strawy-like skin. While it is

green people cut it open and drink the liquid which is clear like

water and tastes slightly fermented. They say its very healthy. My

question is: will it help my candida? I had been avoiding it because

I was not sure, but should I go ahead and drink it? Coconut oil can

be found imported in the health food store but it costs an arm and a

leg. If the coconut juice is good for me I will happily drink it.

==>Coconut oil also costs me an arm and a leg here in Canada. I pay

$23.00 Canadian for 16 ounces. I consider it an investment in my

health and well being.

The best in health, Bee
