May be you have any recommendation?

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2003 Report Share Posted February 6, 2003 Try adding some coconut oil into your diet. One of its components lauric acid is changed into monolaurin in the body. This is antivirial and will work against the virus that causes mono. You may be able to get coconut oil in your local health food store or you can order it on line. You can also use the reg fat coconut milk as a good source for the oil. Contary to current medical dogma cocnut oil is a very heallling and healthy oil and will not raise cholesterol. This info was passed on by the seed oil industries who wanted to sell their products and did studies using hydrogenated cocnut oil.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Thanks Cheryl! I will try to find some coconut oil, although it is not so easy here in Greece because olive oil rules! And I try to use it as much as possible because I realy believe in its health powers. Do you know anything about it?

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Olive oil is very good for health. While in India, we used coconut oil ( from coconuts grown in our home ) for our cooking. Coconut oil has a lot of therapeutic benefits and is used in herbal medicine, but it is loaded up with fat (and, so a small amount in cooking is probably OK). The food is also tastier when cooked in coconut oils, but I switched to olive oil for my Indian cooking after coming to US ( as coconut oil is not commonly found here ), but I find the food to feel lighter than when it is cooked in coconut oils. I stick to olive oil for everything, these days, including baths and skin applications. It certainly feels much lighter and cooler on the skin. gai Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 Hi Gai Your perceptions are right . Coconut oil is lighter than olive oil. Cocnut oil is comprised of medium chain fatty acids and can be absorbed directly into our bodies and converted to energy without using a carrier lipoprotein. Olive oil is comprised of long chain fatty acids and must be binded with a lipoprotein for transport. Interestingly coconut oil also has the effect of increasing the metabolism and improving thyroid function, (Seed oils tend to inhibit thyroid function) Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2003 Report Share Posted February 10, 2003 Many investigations have been done and have discover that good olive oil (Extra virgin, first press) give you good colesterol and reduce the bad one. Good for you heart, and alsois good for your bowels, constipation, and many other things, the proble is that the good one is very expensive exept in the origin countries like Spain... come over... jeje Luis Martin ----------------- Nuevo Depósito a 1 mes 6% TAE, contrátalo: http://ingdirect.ozu.es ----------------- Correo enviado desde http://www.ozu.es Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
