Coconut Oil

[liya]

I am a newbie all the way from Hong Kong my adoptive home - relocated from South Africa. Am gluten free but also live my life with Hashimoto thyroiditis. I introduced coconut oil into my diet about 3 months ago - started with one tablespoon of oil per day and worked my way up to 6 per day. It has made a huge difference to me and also rub coconut oil onto my skin. I have also eliminated all raw foods, no soy, fungi and sugar. Fruit- mainly have berries that has been frozen for 14 days or longer - this enables any parasites or worms not always visible to the eye not impact on the gut. I make my own Kefir and start my day with a Kefir smoothie. Found my symptoms to be far less since I follow a healthy gut regime. The Hexemer or die off effect was quite bad the first few days but today feel much better and in the process lost a lot of weight not what I really wanted but now can slowly work my back to gaining weight again.

Smoothie conists of half a cup of fresh Kefir, handfull of berries, 1 spoon of Colon cleanse, 1 ground tablespoon of Chia seeds, 2 tabelspoons of extra vergin Coconut oil, the yolk of 2 raw eggs - ensure to drain the egg yolk out of the little white bag and do not use the stringy little bag. This smoothie is high in Vitamin K1 and K2, works as an anti inflammatory, kills worms and parasites and supports healthy elimination.

Looking forward to learn more and share personal experiences

Welcome to the forum, that was a great post so I look forward to reading more from you and I may try what you wrote about. One suggestion I thought of is that you may want to sterilize the eggs before handling them. Those of us with intestinal problems are very succeptable to being infected with harmful bacteria from the outside of the eggs. Sterilize your hands also after handling them. A food wash with a disinfectant would be good or you can use diluted ethyl alcohol, vodka works fine.

Caprylic acid, derived from coconut oil, is a natural antifungal, antiparasitic, antibacterial botanical treatment. I used a capsule form of caprylic acid to erradicate the Enterobacter Cloacae in 2007 and the Achlorobacter bacteria in 2010. So taking large amounts of coconut oil daily may just give you longterm protection against intestinal fungus, parasites and bacterial infections. With my history of those kinds of infections, I probably should also be consuming more coconut oil! I suspect that would have less side effects (like bloating and cramping pain) than taking caprylic acid capsules AFTER I get diagnosed with intestinal infections.

Great idea!!!
