Guest guest Posted April 9, 2002 Report Share Posted April 9, 2002 Actually the spectrum product is not the best indicated... its been bleached and processed to some degree. Will still give pretty good resuts topically as a moisturizer and conditioner but real coconut oil is far better. Many folks claim to have a revbersal in grey hair. Also helps minimize itchy scalp, and remedy some skin conditions. Supposedly many people feel that taking it internally will help rid some parasites, increase metabolism and energy level. As a cooking oil many believe it surpasses olive oil and butter. It is rather expensive though (sigh) as with most healthy unprocessed products...runs about $50 a gallon. Many also claim it does a terrific job in healing dermatology, erradicating fungus and even perhaps alieviating acne. Somewhat akin to aloe or Vitamin E in many ways. Also supposedly good as a sun conditioner that medium chain fat chains absorb into cells and provide tanning rather than burning. Your milage may vary... :-) It seems to be similar to nutrients in breast milk as well. There is a coconut website; search for cocnut info and it will pop up. hope that helps.

To be more precise, I have coconut oil in my *hair* - I was at my HFS looking for a conditioner and saw the jar of spectrum coconut oil among the choices. It's the same stuff that's in the vege oil section of the store. So I thought I'd give it a try. The directions said to melt it, put it on your hair and leave on for one hour. Just wondering if someone else has tried this, and if so, how long you left it on your hair, and what the results were...? I probably shoulda asked before trying it, but I'm the jump in and ask questions later type Suze Fisher Web Design & Development http://members.bellatlantic.net/~vze3shjg/ mailto:s.fisher22@...

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2002 Report Share Posted April 9, 2002 Hi Bob, >>>Actually the spectrum product is not the best indicated... ***I know, but it looked as good as or better than the other choices on the shelf. I'm not planning on eating it, but just using it topically, until I get up the money to buy some less refined CO. >>>>It is rather expensive though (sigh) as with most healthy unprocessed products...runs about $50 a gallon. ***OUCH!!! And I thought goat's milk was expensive! >>>>Many also claim it does a terrific job in healing dermatology, erradicating fungus and even perhaps alieviating acne. ***Jeez, it better reverse *cancer* at that price... >>>>Somewhat akin to aloe or Vitamin E in many ways.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2002 Report Share Posted April 9, 2002 Well at least the supplier does include shipping in that $50 price in the USA... well actually not cancer, but many believe it will clear up HIV...there is a project to get large amount of it as a procedure for HIV to Africa because of its relatively low cost and fantastic results. Its standard protocol in the Philippeans and the word appears to be getting out quickly for what its worth :-) bob SLF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2002 Report Share Posted April 9, 2002 Hey, a coconut head is what a list member called themselves because they used coconut oil on their head as a conditioner. Means nothing. Best for you to look up coconut oil info website to get more about uses for coconut oil. There you can delve into its many applications yourself :-) enjoy bob SLF ----- Original Message ----- From: theta sigma Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 12:49 AM Subject: Re: coconut head At 08:56 PM 4/8/2002 -0400, you wrote: >well actually not cancer, but many believe it will clear up HIV...there is >a project to get large amount of it as a procedure for HIV to Africa >because of its relatively low cost and fantastic results.
