I read about
this in energy times and received the full article. She may be on to something but I don't think I could make my mom drink the amount of coconut oil she suggested.

Coconut Oil? isn't that one of the Bad fats, colesterol wise. If not whip it up in the blender with some pineapple juice. Tell her it's a pina colada. i have heard that the Omega 3,6,9,s are good for the brain, but pricey.

I pay $13.75 for 32 oz of MCT Oil, the supposed active ingredient i coconut oil. MCT oil remains liquid at room temperature, unlike coconut oil. I add a dash to my hot cocoa.

I use the coconut oil for my mom. I measure 1 tablespoon of cocoa and add some honey to taste and then add 3 t ablespoons of the coconut oil. Mix together and spoon into the bottom of egg carton and put in refrigerator to get cold. It will harden up and you can give it to your loved one like candy 3 times a day. That will give you 3 tablespoons a day. Hope this helps someone who wants to try the coconut oil.
