[Coconut Oil] Kills Cancer
Cells And Treats Alzheimer’s
My unprofessional and wholly anecdotal opinion? Start consuming it today.

Coconut oil is about
90% saturated fat, which is a higher percentage than butter (about 64% saturated
fat), beef fat (40%), or even lard (also 40%). Too much saturated fat in the
diet is unhealthy because it raises “bad” LDL cholesterol levels,
which increases the risk of heart disease. So it would seem that coconut oil
would be bad news for our hearts. But what’s interesting about coconut oil
is that it also gives “good” HDL cholesterol a boost. Back in the
days, coconut oil was victimized during that era of erroneous dogma that
demonized saturated fats. They’ve created the unhealthy trans-fatty acid
hydrogenated unsaturated fat industry, which included margarine as well.
Now, when it’s all
clear and understandable, more and more people are finding the saturated fats,
especially the coconut oil, to be more than just safe. They are very healthy
and have medical properties as well. Few studies, which have been published,
but not publicized, are in progress to show the coconut oil’s medicinal
properties. One of the studies you’ve probably haven’t heard of involves cancer
research. This study was conducted by the Australian researchers and it was
published in the Chemotherapy journal, in January 2014, under “experimental
chemotherapy”. This study was an in vitro study on human colon or colorectal
cancer cells. The lifetime risk of developing colorectal cancer is about 1 in
20 (5%). This risk is slightly lower in women than in men. Colorectal cancer is
the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States when men
and women are considered separately, and the second leading cause when both sexes
are combined.
The researchers of
this study were more concerned about finding a good add-on for the
chemotherapy, than finding another solution. In their study, the researchers
compared the effect of butyrare, a short chain fatty acid or SCFA, which is
derived from the fermentation in the gut, to lauric acid – a medium chain fatty
acid or MCFA. You can find MCFA in palm and coconut oil. Almost 50% of MCFA
palm or coconut oil is lauric acid. Lauric acid has shown great results in
promoting oxidative stress and apoptosis in colon cancer cells and killing them
over 90% in just few hours. You should remember this – cancer cells can’t
handle oxygen. So, this is another reason to include coconut oil in your daily
diet.
Coconut Oil vs.
Alzheimer’s
A doctor’s husband
had suffered from serious case of Alzheimer’s and his case was only getting
worse from pharmaceuticals that were also creating unwelcome side effects.
Steve’s, Dr. Mary Newport’s husband, case was quite advanced, forgetting what
spoons where spoons were, not remembering friends and relatives and walking
with a weird gait. Steve also failed a test of drawing a clock from memory. He
wasn’t even close, and it had nothing to do with artistic rendering.
Dr. Mary
Newport’s last hopes were into a new human trial at Big Pharma’s last attempt
to curb Alzheimer’s progress. According to the latest statistics, Alzheimer’s
disease affects over 5 million people in the USA, and it ranks seventh in
deaths from diseases. It was unexpected for them that they missed the deadline
for getting into that pharmaceutical trial. The trial went the way of others,
providing ineffective or lethal. But, Dr. Mary Newport didn’t give up. She
found out that the trial they had missed was using a synthetic medium chain
triglyceride or MCT. The medium chain triglycerides are more specific label for
MCFA. That’s what lauric acid is all about, and it’s naturally abundant in
coconut oil. High amount of LCT or long chain triglyceride can be bad for your
health. The medium chain triglycerides are easily and quickly transformed and
used into energy by the liver into energy ketones, instead of being stored as
fat. The ketones cross the blood brain barrier easily and provide glucose for
the starved brain cells, which is the fuel they need to furnish neuron
communication. Some medical experts are beginning to consider dementia as
diabetes type 3.
Dr. Mary Newport
started to add 1-2 tablespoons of raw coconut oil into her husband’s meals.
Steve started to get some real progress rapidly. His health condition reversed
to the point where Steve began remembering his friends and relatives and
conversed with them easily. He also began taking long walks and his weird gate
has disappeared. He could finish projects once started that he couldn’t before.
She even wrote a book about their coconut oil experience. The book title was
Alzheimer’s disease: What If There Was a Cure?: The Story of Ketones. So,
judging from other’s successful experiences with coconut oil, it’s better to
start dosing those MCTs at the earliest onset or hint of dementia or
Alzheimer’s. But, it’s very important for you to know that not everyone who has
progressed to the Alzheimer’s phase that Steve had experienced will have the
same exact results.
Besides that,
the unrefined cold pressed coconut oil has many other benefits as well. It
kills viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites without disrupting beneficial gut
bacteria. The coconut oil also improves digestion and liver metabolism, and
reduces inflammation. When the coconut oil is applied topically, it promotes
healthier skin and hair. And, another surprising thing is that coconut oil
promotes weight loss. It may even help reverse diabetes type 2. You can use it
for cooking, because it has a high smoke point. Smoke point is that point
during cooking or frying when the oil starts smoking (burning), causing the oil
to go rancid and toxic. Add coconut oil to you healthy diet, you won’t regret
it, we promise.
