Anyone who feeds Coconut Oil?

Is that the cardiologist equivalent of going postal?

:yes: :winkgrin:

S’pose it’d be the same as a Pharmacist who went Homeopathic or a Nurse Practitioner and her Dr. Husband also doing the same.

As I always say (being the true Libertarian that I am) … to each his/her own.

Dr Oz is to medicine what Dr Phil is to psychiatry. :winkgrin:

Both only have fame due to Oprah. Neither due to any actual personal talent.

I’m with Deltawave… Dr. Oz is a quack, and a whore to boot. Some portion of his show is good, but a lot of his recommendations… ya…

@caballus

So how likely is it that a cardiologist would include anything even remotely negative about pharmaceuticals or western medicine in their discussions? Unbiased? HA!

How many have you met? Cause I knew hundreds through my work, ad many if not most were aware of the negtives and shared those with their patients.

Come on delta – do you honestly believe that ALL those studies listed are quackery? That’s why I posted that site because its loaded with the studies that you so want to always see. Yet you claim that Olive Oil is the best. So why are studies done on Olive Oil acceptable to you yet studies on Coconut Oil are not?

Because all studies are not equal?

So all those studies are wrong, I guess, by your estimation.

Just for alternative views on Olive Oil – here’s a paper written about it:
http://www.thevegetariansite.com/health_oliveoil.htm That doesn’t paint such a pretty picture of Olive Oil, does it? The references cited in that article seem to be pretty trust-worthy, do they not?

Of course when oils (any kind) are put into foods and processed they are changed. Oils are changed when we start to heat them up. Any oils. Any food, period. With all the GMO crap today I wouldn’t even THINK to use corn oil for horses - never mind soy/vegetable oil. I won’t use them for anyone in this household or on this farm.

And just to go back a post or so – Dr. Price’s studies are rather an interesting read. More telling are the photos included in his research. Have you ever read them?

Well, at any rate – for those who DO use coconut oil the price on the page that I posted first off can’t be beat. Wanted to share that.

Bottom line, there are no panaceas, and most fats have negatives. Fads are just that… any bets on what will replace coconut oil?

@3Spots

Whether you feed it to your horse or not, I just want to point out that it’s a great make-up remover and moisturizer!

Unless you’re allergic.

@jm2

I feed it to my show mare to help build muscle.

Dr. Oz (who I consider to be pretty reliable source) has been raving on coconut oil. From his website:

As with anything though…too much of a good thing is not so good. Everything in moderation.

re bold, how does THAT work?

Heads up that this is an older thread that was bumped by some spam.

Looking on the site I saw that Non Organic coconut oil was 15.99 a gallon. I was also side tracked by the bittersweet chocolate-- until I saw the price:eek:
