Too much coconut oil is not a good thing

Posted 07-24-2008 at 06:55 AM by comicbookcrush
I must be using too much coconut oil! I've only got half a pot left and it's Ł10 a pot! Oh dear, haha it must be all the moisturising, i'm going to cut down on how much i'm using, I want it to last at least 2 months or I won't be able to afford to keep buying it. Hopefully if I cut down I can make it last until the beggining of November. I'm REALLY trying to not waste my money.

edit: I'm also going to switch the oil I pull with at the beggining of September.

LowCarb & Mediterranean Diets Fare Better than "Low Fat"

Posted 07-22-2008 at 12:20 PM by bunnyday
New results supporting both low-carb and mediterranean diets as health beneficial, even more so than low-fat diets at controlling blood-glucose levels and improving LDL to HDL ratio.

"Conclusions Mediterranean and low-carbohydrate diets may be effective alternatives to low-fat diets. The more favorable effects on lipids (with the low-carbohydrate diet) and on glycemic control (with the Mediterranean diet) suggest that personal preferences and metabolic considerations might inform...

This is about my fifth day of oil pulling. I'm not sure when I actually started doing it properly but I will continue it. I think my skin felt softer with the St. Ives moisturiser but I’m going to continue putting on the coconut oil because it's completely natural and may take a few weeks for my skin to feel moisturised anyway. I find oil pulling quite therapeutic. I actually really enjoy it haha. I still have to call the doctors to book in for an allergy test. I'm looking...

Lacking common sense today

Today I bought coconut oil from Holland and Barrett. This was the only coconut oil I could find, I hope it's good enough for oil pulling. My arms feel smoother today probably from moisturising. I am going to begin OP tomorrow and I am going to moisturise with the coconut oil after my shower today. The next thing to complete is an allergy test from the doctors which I will ring up and enquire about tomorrow. I also got an application form for a job! I'm very pleased about...

My God. I just called my neuropath (now I realise, that she may not be a neuropath). I don't want to get too excited though she does not sound very experience in dealing with the skin. However she does do the Vega test, which tests for food sensitivies, mineral and vitamin deficiencies, any bugs/bacteria in your system that could be making you ill and CANDIDA YEAST!! However on the phone I'm positive that I sounded like a complete idiot haha, I could tell that she thought...
