coconut oil - finding it hard to tolerate

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I'm struggling with the coconut oil. I've been trying to take it recently after

finding a good and affordable brand. Organic virgin coconut oil. It tastes

wonderful!!!

Anyway, I started with only a teaspoon and I have to say it didn't take long

before I wound up with cramping and bloating in the gut and brain fog. I've had

only a teaspoon of the stuff here and there, but these reactions are quite

intolerable at the moment. I feel like I'm half asleep.

I rely on this diet and it's enabled me to start doing some part time work!

But these reactions are really getting to me at the moment.

I just need a little reassurance the coconut oil. The symptoms are SO similar

to what happens if I feed the candida. In fact, I can barely distinguish them

apart. But I know it cannot be feeding it. It just feels like it. I do great

on butter and never have a problem no matter how much I consume in both cooking

and eating it straight. I eat alot of onions too. So I'm unsure why I would be

responding so strongly to coconut oil!

What should I do here? Should I stop for a few days and try again on 1/2

teaspoon? I'm in some pain here and the bloating and brain fog are really quite

intolerable.

Bex.
