    I put 1 Tbsp of coconut oil in my oatmeal and it's delicious. I am definitely going to try the ACV.

    Is it safe to use if I've had opened coconut oil in my pantry for a long time? I have never known what to use it for, so wondering if i should now use it or get new stuff? It's probably almost a year old.

    I did this about 2 yrs ago and lost like 15 pounds in about four weeks. I was mixing it with my chai green tea and exercising maybe 2 to 3 days a week. Just walking at home to Leslie Sansone. I was taking it for other health reasons which it did help as well. I was not trying to lose but the weight just fell off. The weight came back once I discovered I was pregnant. :noway: :blushing:

    It's fine. Virgin Coconut Oil is in solid form typically and then as it's heated becomes liquid. You are suppose to keep it in the pantry.

    any one have any thoughts on this??? I did some research for my mom who has infection after infection and came across ACV. So i thought i'd give it a try before telling her to try it. By day 2 i felt like the skin on my face was sagging. looking in the mirror it wasn't. By day 3 my clothes became very tight but i had not gained weight. By day 4 i started feeling very depressed and my husband was concerned that I "didn't look right". My skin color was off and my face was puffy. It also happened to by my TOM and it was so heavy. I had to stop taking it because each day i was feeling worse. I was taking 2tsp- 3x daily with water.

    Does anyone have any idea why this would have been the reaction??

    I have read someplace where coconut oil can become rancid over time. It don't last long enough around our house to worry about that though. Worth checking further if it has been sitting around for a while to see if this is true. We use the extra virgin organic version. We use the spray version for cooking too. That one does not impart the light taste that the jar version does (which we also don't mind). Great for pan cooking on fish, chicken and shrimp

    Actually it doesn't become rancid as quickly as you might think, saturated fats are quite stable in fact. A year is still pretty safe.
