I posted today about a trial in the UK for a ketone ester. You can get ketones several ways, including eating coconut oil. Read my post about the trial in the UK for ketone ester, but in the meantime, is anyone here taking coconut oil? If so, what have you noticed?

I have been taking 3 table spoons of coconutoil every day since October 2010. Please see following link to my post about it:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/sh...ht=imad+eureka I was very enthusiastic about as I noted a huge increase in my energy after starting to take it and kept taking it without stop. But apart from improving my energy, I can not say that it had any other effect on my PD.

i find that eating it straight [after warming the jar in warm water to de-solidify] it might help with acid reflux. i have endoscopy on Friday, i am mostly on a liquid diet. acid reflux out of control now.
there's always something.....

I find the coconut oil keeps my energy level up / more consistent throughout the day. Been taking it off and on for a year now.
I use it two ways- 1 T. in my oat meal in the morning and then at least 1 T. more throughout the day absorbed through the skin (my skin drinks it in like a thirsty sponge!)

3 months ago, after 3 years of general malaise, I was diagnosed with PD. I had all the symptoms. I was devastated. My mum has PD and is in an almost vegetative state now at 83 years old. Accordingly I had seen where conventional therapy takes you and I did not want to go there. I tried the Levodopa but it made me feel worse. Shakier than ever! So I decided to do some research and work on it myself
I have introduced a few things things concurrently but the main points are these: gluten free diet Injections of. Vit B12 twice weekly ( tests showed I was at 185) High anti oxidant intake Coconut oil 6-8 tablespoons per day I was meant to see my diagnosing neurologist in Dec but that appointment got cancelled. I was pretty happy with that as I wanted time to experiment with what I had decided to undertake. I finally went to see him this week and I think he was pretty surprised at my improvement when he ran me through the same suite of motor coordination type exercises. He asked me what had been going on so I told him about coconut oil and he said " there must be levels of levodopa in coconut oil" and then he googled it. He was evidently pretty surprised at whatever popped up on his screen . He said I was clearly better than when he saw me 3 months ago and suggested I see a colleague of his who specializes in PD. This is not a clinical trial. It is purely anecdotal. But it gives me hope that there is a solution to this cruel disease. |

Just wanted to pass this on - I recently saw a Dr, and MD who practices alternative medicine. He suggested I try this oil in place of coconut oil. It's high in MCT's and is easier to take. Supposedly it's 18x stronger than coconut oil, so you don't have to take as much. I ordered it and it has arrived, I just started taking it, so not much to report yet, but we shall see!
