It is suggested in Mark Trudeau's book to take a teaspoon of Organic Virgin Coconut Oil everyday for many health benefits. I know it is a saturated fat that I've always heard is NOT good to consume. My family physician has no information on this. Can anyone help me? Thank You!

Coconut oil that is organic should be safe for consumption, it is used in a variety of coastal recipes in India as well as for massage. If you are still not sure get an allergy test taken or try it for a couple of days and be observant about any changes. If there are side effcets discontinue.

Virgin Coconut Oil is also known as "Drugstore in a Bottle".

I know this brand of VCO, the Health 1st VCO that comes in soft gel capsules,
Easy to swallow and no oily after taste.

Coconut oil has been used for centuries as a vital source of food for health and
General well being in traditional communities of tropical regions. Recent research
Verifies traditional beliefs that the coconut palm is “The Tree of Life” and that,just
Like any other pure, whole food, coconuts and virgin coconut oil have a significant
Role to play in a well balanced, nutritious diet. Abandoning unhealthy lifestyles and
Reverting to natural foods can help to reverse many of the diseases that have
Manifested in our bodies through the highly refined diet of our modern society.

Here are some of what VCO can do for you.

- Improve your energy
- Reduce your risk of heart disease
- Reduce your risk of cancer
- Improve your digestion and ability to absorb nutrients
- Promote weight loss and maintenance of your ideal weight
- Help prevent bacterial, yeast, fungal, and viral infections
- Support and enhance your immune system
- Help regulate your blood sugar and prevent or control diabetes
- Help prevent osteoporosis Help prevent premature aging and wrinkling of the skin
- Help keep your skin smooth and soft
