Coconut Milk - Good for the mind

debrapeterson

I was told recently that drinking 8 ozs per day helps you think clearer and possibly helps against such things as dementia and alzheimers. Has anyone seen any information on this. I did manage to drink 4 ozs. but that is all I could drink. I figure thats better than none. Look forward to seeing your comments

I have several friends who use brain boosting suppositories. They used to be stupid, now they are all really smart.

I come from a part of the world where coconut (in all its forms) is used in cooking in copious amounts on a daily basis. Near as I can tell, it gives us heart disease.

Heart disease is generally caused by high cholesterol which causes atherosclerosis. Cholesterol is only found in animal byproducts and meat. If people who eat high amounts of coconut oil/milk/cream are getting heart disease, it is because of the meat that they are pairing with it, not the coconut products themselves.

I come from the part of the world where everyone consumes wheat, and as far as I can tell, it gives us heart disease. :devil:

That as much a wrong statement as the coconut one.

LOL! I hope people didn't take me seriously (although I do come from a part of the world where there is high use of coconut, and we do have high incidence of heart disease). Correlation != Causation. I just don't like claims of 'This food will cure baldness, death and taxes too!'
