Do People Ever Experience Any Side Effects When First Adding Virgin Coconut Oil to Their Diet?
Yes, especially people used to a low-fat diet, or people who are generally unhealthy. There could be some “die-off” effects as the coconut oil does contain high levels of lauric acid which is a strong anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agent. As these microbes are killed and eliminated from the body, they can cause temporary side effects like diarrhea. For this reason, especially if you have candida or parasite problems, you may want to start out eating lower amounts of coconut oil and coconut foods in your diet.
Also, like any food, some people may be allergic to coconuts or (more rarely) coconut oil. Keep in mind that it has been safely used by millions of Asians for thousands of years.
This diet sounds promising, but I’m addicted to sugar (and/or pasta, and/or refined, white flour bread products) – What Do I Do?
First of all, you need to realize that sugar cravings are often eliminated by introducing the right amount of good fats, proteins, and minerals into your diet. Just start by adding in the coconut oil, the other good saturated fats, and make sure you are getting adequate protein at each meal. Make sure to switch to unrefined sea salt and eat a green super food in your diet for the extra minerals. It may not happen overnight, but you may be surprised to see how your cravings disappear! In the meantime, be gentle on yourself for your mistakes, and just try to get back on track as soon as possible.
