Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 Thank you to Erin for the info! Also, Janine, I will keep your post on file for the future. But, I found this virgin oil de coco-creme which sounds wonderful for a very good price. If this ends up not working out, I will contact you! Thanks!

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 So did you all see my post about how I put my wrong site name on my signature? And the one I put went to a porn site?! Well, my poor mum who was the first to click on it, or at least the first to tell me it was a porn site, is stuck now getting tons of spam about porn-proofing her computer -- silly!

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2002 Report Share Posted April 24, 2002 I have no idea either because some comes to DH who is NEVER online, not exaggerating, he never is. Most comes to me and I am what some would consider a prude in that I despise porn and don't go to those sites. Grr. Guess I'll buy one of those " family filter " things.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2002 Report Share Posted April 26, 2002 Hi Michelle, Melt the CB, drizzle in the c. oil and mix. Yes, you can use virgin c oil, it would still be virgin, it would have something added to it, but the virgin status is still intact. I think the CB smell would overwhelm the c. oil though.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 A friend of mine was sharing with me last night about a medical problem that she has been hassling with for the last couple of years - various doctors, various diagnosis - nothing that helped (of course)...she had all the 'symptoms' of MS, of chronic fatigue syndrome, of brain disease (passing out periodically) ? .. but the 'main' ingredient of all the symptoms was always curously missing. Now the kicker - she finally found a 'natural' doctor - and he tells her that her system is just totally out of wack - her endoctrine system is chaos. She is taking vitamins and minerals now instead of drugs and does feel much better, but we were wondering if there were any herbs/oils that would help in her healing process? She is off all sugars, most carbs and a more natural vegetarian diet. As a sidenote...this lady and her hubby of 30 years are some of the most caring, loving people on earth - they have adopted ... 20 .. yes you heard it 20 children - some with special needs, bi-racial kids, Ethiopian children, Romanian children, Vietnamese, you name ... think there are like 12 countries or something. They live very frugally, growing their own vegetables, raising their own meat, sewing their own clothes - lot of love in that family...LOTS of love :-)... I would really like to help her by giving her the oils/herbs that might help - any suggestions or advise would be greatly appreciated Blessings, Pam E Web Express - Web Design & Hosting http://www.ewebexpress.com TLC Naturally - Essential Oils & Home Made Goodies http://www.tlcnaturally.com - Cheryl Smith Friday, February 27, 2004 2:01 PM Re: virgin coconut oil Chris had a coop last year and I discovered this to be THE best I had come across.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hi Peggy, I have read somewhere that there really isn't a " extra " virgin coconut oil, but who knows why they call it what they do. I've got VCO on my site for 49.95 a gallon. I think the price variations are dependent on how much in bulk we are buying and what price we are getting. I really couldn't sell mine for less, I'd be losing money. They are not all the same. Some, like the type I carry has a toasted scent to it. Probably from the gentle heating that is done to it to evaporate any remaining moisture. Some that is centrifugally (is that a word lol) made I think does not have the toasted scent. One type is marketed under the brand name of Virgin Oil de coco Cream. The stuff that African shea butter company sells is similar to mine and has that toasted scent to it, they are both produced in Togo Africa. I personally haven't tried Tropical Traditions but I hear it's pleasing. Some of these others are processed in other tropical places and I am sure their methods are different and can account for the differences. Good luck to ya and I hope this little tidbit of info helped some. Margaret http://www.naturalindulgences.com >I'm seeing a range of prices on this.

Guest guest Posted February 29, 2004 Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Thanks for the kind words about the co-op. I really wasn't planning on doing one at the moment, and after all the packaging issues I had last year with it I don't know if I'd dare do it the hot weather again *lol* (actually I have found a good source for inexpensive leak proof containers I was planning on maybe soon doing one for virgin red palm oil though .....

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Doc, I see you like peanut oil. I have found coconut oil to be very good. I had major hair loss early in 2005 and in less than a week the hair loss reduced to minimal loss after I started eating coconut oil. I didn't even get it thinking it would take care of the hair loss, either. No placebo effect here. I am 66 and my hair was almost all white. There is more dark hair that has come in since I started the coconut oil in July 2005. Who knows what my hair will look like by December 2006? It has also not contributed to any weight gain and does help keep the bowels moving better. Don't believe all the bad stuff you might have heard. The bad tests were done on hydrogenated coconut oil, not the real thing. Anything hydrogenated is BAD. I also read that the tests with hydrogenated coconut oil were done by the vegetable oil industry. I am sure there was no profit motive there, right? Tropical Traditions has some of the best coconut oil I have found with some good sales, too. Some sellers on EBay also have good quality oil.
