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.

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
