I have started to use organic raw virgin coconut oil on my skin as well as ingesting it. I put it in my tea. At first I became very sick from it. I felt nauseated and had diarrea for 2 days. I assume that I have had some sort of a die off thing or a cleansing going on. I found that If I eat some White Chia seed before the coconut oil then I have no problems at all ingesting it. The problem that I am having now (and from the beginning) and Im not sure if it is common or not is: When I apply it to my skin it makes me feel itchy and prickly all over my skin. Its not unbearable but it is annoying. I think it is some sort of a die off again. Do you agree? It also makes my skin red like I\'ve been slapped. I have been using the oil for about a month and Im going to keep using it in hopes that this issue will go away. Have you heard of this issue at all?

You might want to try another anti-candida treatment like Grapefruit Seed Extract (GSE) or Oil of Oregano or Olive Leaf Extract. Good luck!

I don\'t why this is, as I seem fine eating it, so it doesnt seem like an allergic reaction. Joe Thu, 22 Oct 2009 20:41:24 +0100
