Thanks Deb,will check back at Nutrition Center next week, Monday they were out of the jar so i got the capsules. I would think any that they carry would be good.

What's amazing is they sell it at the grocery store now.  It's not the best but it is there in a pinch.

Thanks Kay for the info on the organic coconut oil. Hope it will help my Fibromyalgia pain.

I buy the organic coconut oil and have been known to take it by the teaspoon full before.  I think it helps with my RA.  I also use it in facial and body scrubs, mixing a dab in coffee grounds.  Skin feels smooth and silky when finished :)

A lot of people just put a tablespoon in their cereal, etc.

Thanks for info, I was talking about the coconut oil you take by mouth, 2TBS a day. Health Food store was out of the kind in the jar so I bought capsules and taking 3-3x day. Just started Monday, will see if burst of energy and some pain relief along with clearing some fibro fog the last two days is related. I am still some what spectacle so will see if it continues.

High heat cooking I use grape seed oil or Nucoa margerine.

I like coconut oil, but it really does not like higher temperatures, for foods that I like to cook on high heat I use Olive oil. 

coconut oil is also great for your skin and hair

I cook with coconut oil now instead of olive oil.  It has a nice flavor.

Comment by Sharon Howell z7NC on February 23, 2012 at 7:08am

I don't know if this fits in here, I would like to know if anyone has tried coconut oil. I have read a lot about it lately and considering giving it a try for allergies, fibro fog, chronic fatigue and more.

"The fruit from the pineapple guava is not picked. It falls, which is the sign it is ready to eat, and then you pick it up.  In Australia, we are all under the impression it is a New Zealand plant, which I now see, turns out to be wrong."
