Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.
I am one who believes in doing everything possible to be healthy. I take several supplements of various kinds on a regular basis, and I had heard about taking coconut oil but never tried it. So I decided to give this one a try. I knew about the benefits of coconut oil, but I wasn’t aware of supplements that you could take.
So I tried the #1 Certified Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil Capsules On Amazon, and here are some exciting facts about this product.
•-> Helps fight viruses and bacteria that cause illness
•-> Helps ward off yeast, fungus and candida
•-> Lowers bad cholesterol
•-> Positively impacts thyroid hormones
•-> Helps manage insulin
•-> Helps the thyroid function (boost metabolism, energy and endurance)
•-> Increases digestion and absorption of fat-soluble vitamins
•-> Helps reduce oxidation contributing to skin aging
•-> Protective Vitamin E for a powerful skin and hair moisturizer
Here is what Dr. Oz says about it.
~> “It helps you lose weight.”
~> “It treats skin conditions… It helps dry, irritated skin. If you get Eczema or Psoriasis it can help with it dramatically.”
~> “It treats ulcers caused by bacteria.”
And this product is made in the USA and certified organic. Therefore, you can rest assured that the product is safe. I started taking the product right away, and I followed the dosage instructions.
So I took three capsules, and things were fine for a couple days until I got terrible gastronomical discomfort. It was manageable, but I wondered what was going on. I realized that this product was the only thing I was taking that was different. Once I stopped taking them, I was fine within about a day. I then cut back on my dosage, and I was fine for another couple days. I know this sounds like a pattern. I was honestly concerned, and I was ready to contact the company.
Instead, I went online and did some research. Some people really do struggle with taking coconut oil. And I happen to be one of them. And evidently I am one of them. According to the research I found, the discomfort does go away as your body gets used to it. So that brings me to my first recommendation. Don’t start out with three–work your way up to three. Take it easy, and listen to your body.
So did I experience health benefits? Yes! I basically have regular digestion, but I can say that this coconut oil aided this area more than ever. I became very regular and experienced no constipation or hard stools. That is important to those who struggle with this issue.
Although I like this product–the pills were easy swallow–I have passed it onto someone who does not suffer from sensitivities like I do. When it comes to supplements, you have to really do your research and follow the safety precautions. What works for one person may not work for another person. I have no qualms in recommending this and giving it high marks in spite of the fact that my body didn’t like this product as much as I did! What I will say is that if you wish to take coconut oil, this is the top brand!
