| VIRUSES/BACTERIAL
INFECTIONS/FUNGUS/PARASITES
Studies have found that coconut oil can
kill viruses that cause influenza, herpes, measles,
hepatitis C, SARS, AIDS, and other illnesses.
It also kills bacteria that cause ulcers, throat
infections, urinary tract infections, gum disease
and cavities, pneumonia, and gonorrhea, and other
diseases; Kills fungi and yeasts that cause
candidiasis, ringworm, athlete's foot, thrush,
diaper rash, and other infections; Expels or kills
tapeworms, lice, giardia, and other parasites;
Coconut oil may provide an effective
defense against many parasites including giardia.
Like bacteria and fungi, giardia can't stand up
against MCFA found in coconut oil. Research has
confirmed the effectiveness of MCFA in destroying
giardia and possibly other protozoa. By using
coconut oil every day, you may be able to destroy
giardia. Another possible use for coconut is for
the removal of intestinal worms. In India it has
traditionally been used to get rid of tapeworms.
In one study it was reported that treatment with
dried coconut, followed by magnesium sulfate (a
laxative), caused ninety percent parasite expulsion
after twelve hours. In India coconut oil is also
rubbed into the scalp as a treatment to remove
head lice |
CHRONIC
FATIGUE
By taking coconut oil daily, you may also be eliminating
the possibility of developing food allergies,
chronic fatigue, and other related symptoms. If
you're currently troubled with these conditions,
coconut oil used liberally with meals may provide
a source of relief. Because MCFA are quickly absorbed
by the tissues and converted into energy it seems
logical that those suffering from chronic fatigue
would gain a great deal of benefit. |
