Coconut oil is great. I have also found that Iodoral tablets (Iodine and potassium) helped my wife's thyroid normalize almost immediately. She was cold all of the time. 3 days after taking 1 Iodoral/day normal temperature! I believe Iodine is a major nutritional component missing from the average American diet. You can get Iodoral cheap at www.breastcancerchoices.org . It reduces cysts as well. Steve

Approximately 65 percent of the U. S. population is overweight; 30 percent is clinically obese. Research is pointing to the fact that an under active thyroid might be the number one cause of weight problems, especially among women, in the US today. Virgin Coconut Oil offers great hope for those suffering from hypothyroidism (low thyroid function) today. I didn't even realize how much hypothyroidism was affecting my life till I started on the Virgin Coconut Oil and suddenly had energy like the Energizer Bunny! I also gave up the white toxins (wheat flour, refined sugar, potatoes, and other high-glycemic index foods) and that, in combination with my Virgin Coconut Oil consumption has made a tremendous difference in my hormonal balance, mood stability, stamina and overall energy. And, I'm slowly but steadily losing a little bit of weight without effort. Ya gotta love that! Julia (Coconut Diet Forums) I have had SEVERELY low thyroid for nearly two years now and nothing I tried corrected it. Being a naturalist, I did NOT want to end up taking Synthroid. When my daughter showed me your website, I was so excited to try the Coconut Oil. I took 3 tablespoons a day and within two months, I returned to my physician and she just couldn't believe that EVERYTHING on my tests was once again normal! She was so enthused that she has prescribed your product to three other thyroid patients since then. Your product took me out of the doom and gloom I suffered for so very long! My muscles have returned to normal... The mental fog, depression, hoarse voice, swollen face/eyes and all my other symptoms have disappeared! Thanks for saving my life, Tropical Traditions!!!
