Coconut Oil Works...

[skeeweeaka]

I have tried coconut oil for eight days and it has worked...my body temp is up and so is my metabolism... Some of the people I have talked to were able to get off their meds...

My endo told me the same thing! I ordered some off the internet and I couldn't get the lid off to save my life! I had to break the jar. I cooked everything in it

What do you mean? If we use Coconut Oil that we can get off of our Synthroid and it helps us lose weight? Just wondering. I am confused. Help me out here.

Can you use c/oil while taking met for IR?

[skeeweeaka]

I don't see why not, it is simply an oil....your body burns it though...other oils are not burned for fuel but stored in the fat cells...

Do you think this can help for Thyroglobulin Antibodies? My entire thyroid profile is normal except for elevated TgAb. I am told this means my thyroid can begin to fail in the future even though it is ok now. Although, no one will give me meds for it! I just started Met for PCOS but would like to treat the impending thyroid failure as well. Any ideas?

Selenium can help decrease the antibodies level (200 mcg to start, then reduce to 100 mcg after several weeks). There is also research that supports the idea that thyroid replacement meds can decrease antibodies and limit or slow the progession of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.

I've never seen anything about coconut oil effecting antibody levels.

You can also buy coconut oil in grocery stores, even in Walmart. It works especially well when you cook broccoli in it. Woman's World Magazine did an article about it about a year and a half ago.
