I am new user of coconut oil (the beginning of July). I love it as a lotion and have since quit using other lotions. I eat 1 T a day. I usually have 1/2 T in my coffee and 1/2 T on my toast. This is daily. Other times I do bake with it or add it to something, such as a baked potato.
There are many health benefits but everyone may not see the same benefits and others benefit more than others. Most everything I have read recommends 3-4T a day and I in no way consume that much. For one thing, I can't afford to.
Here are some websites that might be helpful. If you have any other questions, I would be glad to try and help, if I can. Please just send me a private message, because I may not see the question on this post.

Coconut oil is really good for us. Coconut oil can help with skin problems like psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and other skin conditions. In fact, the oil is frequently used in expensive skin care products. Coconut oil is also good for your hair. It is one of the most nutritious products you can put on your hair.
