Totally trying for the canker sores! I get really bad breakouts and everything my docs and dentists have told me to try haven't worked. Yay for coconut oil!!
@nalibby2 Trader joes has a great one that's not expensive. I've used it as a pretreatment and to add more coconut flavor in my rice and peas. I tried today to eat some today to see about my breastmilk supply.
How do you tell if it's refined vs. unrefined?? I picked up a tub of it that's is LouAna brand, and it says it's "all natural pure coconut oil". Think it's alright??
Thanks @mijita, but how do I determine the difference? The stuff I bought today doesn't say one way or another, just that it's coconut oil LOL. Sorry if I seem like a moron, just trying to educate myself.
@Bahamamama4828, I could kiss you right now! I was diagnosed with h.pylori shortly before I found out I was pregnant. Long story short, they kept prescribing a series of antibiotics that I was allergic to and luckily so, as I was pregnant!
Lily is now 10 months and because I BF I haven't been treated and I can literally feel ulcers from the h.pylori. Just last night while in pain I thought of ways to hurry and wean Lily, so I can do the 3 antibiotic regimen to rid myself of this horrible bacteria. I would love Lily to self wean and you've given me a glimmer of hope. I'm hoping that coconut oil will in fact help me.
Any suggestions or other recommendations to treat h.pylori?
@LilSugarsMomma, I just read the article and if it doesn't have a smell, then it's refined. When refined it loses a small percentage of healing properties, but is still good for you!
Awww poop. Well, I got it to use dory daughters eczema, diaper rash (when she gets it), and to help my stretch marks. Hopefully it works well, I have faith it will. Thank you, @mijita!!
