I found this and am thinking about buying some coconut oil. I am hoping it will help with the energy -lack of -situation along with the skin issues.
Does anybody (Linny, Linda T, red deputy) have any suggestions on the best source -quality and price for this?
I checked ebay, but was confused as to what was good stuff, and don't want to waste $$$.
Thanks
Linda

Whole Foods Market has food grade coconut oil in a can, in the refridgerated section near the check out asiles(about $7). It can be used in all cooking and also on the skin. Hope that helps

I also get it at my local health food store. I usually buy organic and though I don't eat bread any more, I used to spread it on toast and use it for cooking eggs and it was DELICIOUS!

Thanks guys. I am doing my research for my new "army" assault against these suckers. I am planning a trip to the health food store......... My energy has been zapped.......I am posting some stuff I found today that just sounds too suspicious to me not to have some kind of connection.
Chester aka Nancy- yes, you have a real flair for writing, but your description of the lesions was pretty right on. A LOT of mine have the side byside lines in them, along with the branches and tunnels under the skin and the core. Another thing as of late is v's. I (knock on wood) am seeing quite a bit of healing and stuff (tiny little white things) coming out of my skin AND NOSE, but still have the under the skin lines.
Boy, I tell you---everybody here is so great.....If we could all get together at some resort and pool our knowledge, streamline our diets and add in herbals, I have no doubt we would all kick this in no time.
I am posting some stuff I found today, so look for it.
Thanks guys!

Ive tried a few brands. The NOW doesnt taste good to me. im using organic virgin Specrum ,comes in a glass jar and taste pretty good. I always go for the organic and the virgin even though it alot more expensive.

Go easy at first to see how your body reacts. One time I had too much at once and threw up. When I looked online I found that some people dont handle the coconut oil too well.

It also will stimulate your thyroid so keep that in mind if you have any thyroid issues.

I like to mix mine in yogurt...... :P

Thanks Friski,
I figured there were others here using it and this would be better than "reinventing the wheel". I sure don't want to throw $ away on something that could taste better!
With the way I have been feeling, I thought mixing it with Parrot Bay may be the best idea.......................Ok, maybe not.
