Re: Coconut oil

Yeah, coconut oil is a pretty strong anti-fungal/anti-microbial. THe Lauric acid in it is but one of the ingredients in it that is such. To my knowledge, it is the only other food in nature besides mother's breast milk that contains it. You probably were experiencing some die off. It could be candida and you have it threatened, so it is reacting and dying too, which is obviously good. You'll have to adjust your dose, as glax says, because you control your cleanse. If you need to back off, back off until your die-off symptoms are manageable for you, then, and the key is, to build back up slowly. Some may say differently. I am no expert, but as someone who uses it a lot, that is my two cents. Oh, another cent-I recently did a parasite cleanse (blessed herbs-those herbs also served as anti-fungals) and afterward, I did not have NEAR the die off while taking coconut oil. Now, I'm doing about 1-3 tblsp. three times a day (its that much because I'm fighting an infection. Its really good stuff to be taking, I will likely take it the rest of my life, whether I need it for cleansing or not. Quite healthy
