Guest guest Posted September 24, 2009 Report Share Posted September 24, 2009 I found someone online to email asking whether coconut oil and raw garlic kills good bacteria as well as bad, and I did that. But then I found this!!http://www.coconut-connections.com/candida.htm"One of the good things about lauric acid in virgin coconut oil is that it kills lipid-coated bacteria but does not appear to harm the friendly intestinal bacteria. The MCFA (medium chain fatty acids) in coconut oil also have antifungal properties so not only will they kill disease-causing bacteria and leave good bacteria alone, they will also kill candida and other fungi in the intestinal tract, further supporting a healthy intestinal environment."FINALLY I found something on this topic!!! And yay! If this is true, then we don't need to worry about taking VCO OR raw garlic (see previous post) soon before or after probiotics!! They just all work together!!! YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!! That's very exciting to me =) Hope this helps someone!
