Coconut oil is a natural anti-fungal, anti-biotic, anti-viral. It's also a medium chain fatty acid, but for the life of me I can't remember why that's significant. :lol:

If I understand correctly, I belive that a medium chain fatty acid does not easily store as fat in your body.

I do not mind discussing dairy

I'm just as anti-dairy as you are (some other posters here can attest to that :ph34r:), but I do think that raw organic dairy is probably less harmful than processed dairy. I stay away from both versions though, and can't claim to be an expert on raw milk. I have done some research on it though, and the argument for it is quite compelling.

Mango,

I did a lot of research into dairy. I found the most compelling scientific arguement against dairy... I didn' tsave it to my favorites!! I will try to find it again. It may take awhile. I would tell you (with no proof right now) that no "milk" pulled from the mammary glands of another species should be given to a human being. Raw or homogenized. It is not meant for us to consume. I am sure of this- and not simply due to the "yuck factor". I am glad to know there are others out there who feel as I do about dairy. Unfortunately, we cannot make any "dairy" good for us other than our own mother's milk. Just like all living creatures who nurse, the time comes when we no longer require the milk of our mother's. I urge everyone to stop consuming all "dairy products".

I'm not the person you were talking to, but here is some information about dairy.

      How long does it take to gain weight?

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      Looking for a gluten-free roomie in Denver CO

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
