my CG told me about coconut oil a few weeks ago. I take medication (Tricor) for high triglycerides, and could find nothing that said that medium chain triglycerides were NOT harmful. If it were not for my own high triglycerides I might try it. -----Original Message----- From: Rick McGirr Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2012 10:27 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Coconut oil This anecdotal article from the Tampa Times is about coconut oil (medium chain triglycerides) as a treatment for early-onset Alzheimer's disease. The article goes on to say that positive results were also achieved in Parkinson's patients who were given coconut oil.
