Is one brand of the oil better than another? What's your experience with it? |
I've been in your shoes...with Boog...so I know exactly how you feel.
I just bought a jar at our health food store here, it's the Nutiva brand. Just make sure you buy the cold pressed oil that has no other ingredients than coconut.
We just started using it and so far they love it. I'm hoping it will help Moo with her yeast/allergy issues and rebuild her immune system along the way.
There are several threads on YT about the coconut oil along with some links I'll post one here for you:
Coconutoil.com - Research on Coconut Oil's Health Benefits
Here's one thread where they're talking about it but there are others too:

Several members feed it daily to their dogs and one mentioned that she even brushes her dog's teeth with it. Coconut oil has so many health benefits to humans and it's even great for cooking or putting on toast...I had some in my oatmeal yesterday morning and it was pretty good. I plan to start using it myself and I wish I had known about it a long time ago!
Tell Tink to keep her eyes open and her guard up!
