I had developed excess stomach acid and a duodenal problem after about two months on entacapone, lots of ULQ pain and discomfort. To my surprise this has died back with coconut oil, I'm also just over a week into using it, not too loberally as yet. It is also helping with dry mouth, perhaps coating mucosa?? Well, it seems so, but shall continue to experiment - am planning to try an organic carrot cake using it, almond flour and apple butter for sweetner,will report back on success! I am not able to take it by the spoonful, wondered if others found it difficult too, and would be happy to exchange recipe ideas!

Fiona, my weight tumbled when I lived in Asia, returned when I came back to uk, may be coincidence, but this is a tangible difference in diet. Don't know quite why it took so long for me to realise it. Am living in hope.............
