I think olive oil is the best, but recently I knew good things about coconut oil and think we should give it a try and see.

Hmmm. Mary, I’m a fan of Coconut Oil. I hope I haven’t dashed anyone’s hopes of benefiting from it. I posted the article because I found it helpful and my comments are supportive of coconut oil, but also of those who haven’t benefited. I maintain that there is a lot of marketing hype around it and sadly not enough research to support it. But there will never be enough research for natural products so all we can do is give it a try. If it works great, if not then that doesn’t mean it’s a bad product, it just means it not the right for you.
Mary, please come back and let us know how it goes for you, and I’m really sorry if I’ve been misunderstood and have dash anyone’s hopes.
Best of health to you,
Brenda!

For those who are not privy to correct information and want to dash the hopes of us who are having our issues, the least you could do is encourage us. If people want to use the Coconut oil and there are those of us who I’ve personally seen with noticeable differences in blood sugar, HDL/LDL levels…I’m telling YOU…it works!!! Now, if it didn’t work for you, that’s not a reason to go dashing everyone else’s dreams of losing weight or feeling their best. Going back and forth and back and forth isn’t going to change MY mind…what the hell do I have to lose anyway…OH YEAH…weight! I’m going to try it like my friend did, lose weight (by the way I have Hypothyroidism and a weight issue), get my blood tested in a few months and come right back here with the results! Geez, talk about a complete bummer experience…I come to find a board that will help encourage me…and I get people like Brenda who has nothing better to do but bash peoples hopes. You’re not going to convince those who want to use it to NOT use it. Instead be a support system.

A shame it did’t help you. I’ve been using it on my skin twice a day for about 8 months and it doesn’t break me out. It’s all I’m using at the moment. It’s great for me.
On my hair, it’s fairly good. I’ve had a bit of heat damage that it didn’t help much with. It’s very nice on my daughter’s hair. She’s 8 years old.

Certainly there is hype around coconut oil. I haven’t read that it helps frizzy hair, but that it helps dry hair (which can be frizzy). Olive oil will likely do the same.
Do what works for you, drop what doesn’t!

Yeah I believe coconut oil is alot of media hype, I’ve used organic unrefined coconut oil and the claims i heard, was not present with me
They said it won’t break you out, well i sure did, and it didn’t help my frizzy hair, as it claim it does
