Coconut oil to cure goitre

[Leanne2305]

Good morning all,Ive Heard that coconut oil is a good thing to use for thyroid problems, but I've been told if you rub it into your neck it can help reduce a goitre has anyone else heard of this or tried it for that reason, any advice or tips would be appreciated tia x

Sounds deeply unlikely.

My thoughts exactly but I'd see if anyone has heard of this x

Leanne2305,

Sounds very unlikely to me, too.  I use coconut oil to clean my face and neck because it is moisturising but I've not heard that it has healing properties.

I love this too I also use on my face I also mix a few spoonfuls into a yoghurt for my breakfast gives me loads of energy x

Goitre is usually due to either iodine deficiency or immune enlargement. Coconut oil inside or out will not have the slightest effect.
