Hi,

There are a number of reasons why coconut oil will help with weight loss. One of them being that it is an appetite suppressant. So if you take your tablespoon about half an hour before meals, you will find you will eat smaller amounts.

Dr. Conrado Dayrit, in his superb book "The Truth About Coconut Oil", writes, "medium chain fatty acids raise the body's metabolic rate, induce satiety and make one stop eating"......Given that Dr. Dayrit is one of the world's foremost authorities on coconut oil, I think you would find very few people who disagree with him.

How on earth do you manage to go back to sleep after taking the oil? If I take VCO before going to bed, I lay there wide awake for hours.

I hope this is a help to you.

Mel
