Coconut Oil

[Fiftyplus]

Hello,

I need some help...the only coconut oil I remember is the white thick stuff that comes in a jar...is that the thing you're talking about?

And I never new that you could cook with ?

I remember years ago a woman had thickened herself in it before she went in the garden to sun bathe and she nearly cooked herself from the inside out !!!

I know you might thing that I've just answered my own question, but i'm so lost on this and I really want to try it as a moisturiser.

Yes it's white and a bit like candle wax. It melts on body heat and you just rub it in.

Yes you can eat it, but it is a fat so if you are concerned about your health you should treat it as such and eat in moderation. I don't eat it, but use it as a moisturiser.

Don't buy cheap, and go for virgin coconut oil.

I use Biona Organic Raw Virgin Coconut Oil and get it from Amazon.

I doubt very much that you can cook yourself in the sun though.

Oh thanks Fred...writing that down and will see if I can get some tomorrow.

Me and Amazon are bosom buddies.

You're most probably right about the cooking as well...I have been told before, don't believe it till you see it.  I should take that on board. lol
