Pom, is in-taking coconut oil okay for someone who is trying to lose weight because of the high calorie count? I was wondering for myself too.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Absolutely, one TSP (4.5 gr.) has only 47 calorie, and one TBSP (13.6 gr.) has 117. Remember one medium banana has 105 calorie, which is very low. I indicated to take one TSP/day that is 47 calorie. That's what I take everyday orally but I also put some on my legs and arms before I go to gym (looks pretty.). I do not see any problem with one TSP in the morning and one in the evening. Coconut oil for me is like olive oil, heavenly. Both are so therapeutic. They literally sustain life. There is not a day that I do without coconut oil (virgin or extra virgin) and olive oil (extra virgin), and apple cider vinegar. I wish I could give a gift to anyone who knows the value of these but cannot afford them. It makes me sad. Be Well, POM

Thank you Pom!! & you are so right about them being therapeutic. I have heard really good things about apple cider vinegar. I used to use it in my skin and drink a little as well-- i'd like to get back into drinking a bit, actually. Thanks for reminding me! So, may I ask-- do you take a TSP of all 3?

apple cider V about 1 TBSP, CO 1 TSP, olive oil, way more, if it was not for the high calorie I would have even more. There have been days in past I did not have apple cider V or CO, but not my olive oil.
