I will just mention that the Coconut Oil should be Virgin. .Some people don't like the taste but you can use it as a substitute for other oils in cooking or in a hot drink. It is solid when you buy it, like lard, but it dissolves easily enough. You're best to start off with a low dose. An extract

Latterly, I have been feeling much better and I put this down, in part, to my use of coconut oil as a spread on my bread. My most recent set of bloods has been very good, plus I don’t feel so tired and hazy now. I buy the coconut oil from the internet as most shops don’t seem to stock it. It’s important to buy virgin coconut oil and the benefits are myriad - including helping my thyroid.

I have bought mine in Holland and Barratt when it was buy 1 and get another for a penny.

Hope it's OK for me to recommend an over-the-counter product here (if not, apologies to the mods – please delete!) I really like the Essence of Eden brand essenceofeden.co.uk/ – great, fresh-tasting oil and friendly service if you have any questions. Not the cheapest, but the quality makes it worth it, and you can save a few quid by buying in bulk. I don't have any affiliations with the brand, I'm just a happy customer. I'll admit I've been a bit inconsistent with usage, and I need to give it another shot now that I'm (hopefully) on the way to finding my optimal NDT dose, but I've certainly had no adverse effects from taking it.
