so I just recently started using this stuff, and am already
Converted! This may be TMI.. But since using coconut oil in my protein smoothies, things have been much smoother(works as a gentle laxative)

Haha, lots of other benefits too but thought I would throw that out there!

    I have been using Organic Raw coconut oil for a years( on and off)... I make raw chocolate out of it.. if you are interested I will tell you how.. it is a good way to get your dose in.. I also have a little tiny jar from jam or something and just scoop some in there from the main jar and use that jar for my skin so you dont need to buy 2 sep coconut oils.. It has also helped my thyroid function that my doctor just lowered my dosage of synthroid... and it is suppresses appetite too.. overall really good for you.. so many benefits!!

    I love to use coconut oil, I use it for so many things. Removing my eye makeup, oil pulling, after I get out of the shower for my dry skin etc.....Its so versatile that me and a friend both ordered gallon jugs of it 2 year ago and I still have 1/4 of the gallon left.

    I learned the hard way that coconut does that!

    We had a luau party and I made my own top. I decided to drink the milk....needless to say I was late to the party and about 10 pounds lighter!
