Can Coconut Oil Help In The Treatment Of Alzheimer's?
I learn the most interesting things at the Y. A group of us usually arrive 5-10 minutes before class. We need time to talk, gossip, and share our aches and pains. I was at the gym on a recent Sunday morning when Marcia offered us some new information. Did we know that pure coconut oil was thought by many to slow or even reverse the effects of Alzheimer's. I had not heard this. She told the story of a friend of her's whose father had Alzheimer's. He was asked to draw a clock on a piece of paper, and could not do it. After taking pure coconut oil for several months he was able to draw the clock! Pretty amazing. Although coconut oil is not approved by the FDA for Alzheimer's, there is a lot of anectodal evidence that it may help. Here's just some of the information I discovered on the topic. I am not touting coconut oil as a remedy for Alzheimer's, just pointing out that there is some evidence that it may be beneficial. You be the judge.
