34 Year Old Mom Ex-Marathon Runner Coconut Oil Testimonial

If you read no other review READ MINE. CO54

I am a 34 year old self-employed business-owner with a 20-month old baby.  I was a marathon runner until I had my first (and only) baby at 32 years old and after he was born, I was diagnosted with hypothyroidism.  My TSH was 10.3. I ended up in the ER 2 times in the last 12 months due to being unable to regulate my med’s.

I went to a specialist and was on 27 pills a day (mostly suppliments).  I heard about coconut oil and decided I had NOTHING to lose.  I was already considering shutting down my business because I had no energy to run it.  I have the most severe case of thyroid problems I have ever heard about and by adding one tablespoon of coconut oil to a hemp protein shake in the morning, I am practically healed.

I have done this protien shake for 5 weeks and I am almost back to myself.  EVERYONE has noticed the change.  I took my little boy to the zoo 2 days ago and walked around for 3 hours. If you have thyoid problems, you know hwo miraculous this is.  I am sleeping through the night again and I am thinking about exercising again. I am still a little apprehensive about running- I have been unable to run for soooo long now. But that is my next major goal.

You HAVE to try this. I have told everyone I know with thyroid problems.  Truthfully, I would have eaten lard if I thought it would make be better; that is how discouraged and desparate I was to get my life back.  This is sooo easy and worth ever penney.  And if you melt it, you will barely notice the flavor in your shake.

I use it to cook now- Anytime my recipe calls for olive oil;  I use coconut oil. I hope my testimony inspires you. God made food great all by itself and we have added so much garbage to our diets. I am getting back to the basics now.

Do you have a Recipe you’d like to share with us?

    Thank you so much for sharing this info about hypothyroidism. I was also recently diagnosed with it, and although my numbers were about half what yours were, my energy level was not good. I’m going to order some coconut oil and give this a good try! Thanks again.

    Nutiva coconut oil is soo good on baked potatoes, sweet potatoes, toast with a bit of honey, in stir fries or even off the spoon. It can be used to make hot dressings for spinach or other green salads. I have not found a place where I could not substitute coconut oil or olive oil for butter or other less than nutritious oils. Coconut milk is delicious on any cereals, made into ice creams, or in rice pudding. These foods do not contain the pesticides or chemicals if you purchase pure virgin organic products and are far superior healthwise to dairy products with their hormones and antibiotics.

    cant thank you enough for this info about coconut oil. I too believe God made the earth with plenty of raw goodies, just enjoy the real thing!

  • Colleen Ford

    Is Nutiva coconut oil considered a “raw” food, that is not heated above temperatures that would alter its natural composition?

    • The Nutiva Team

      Hi Colleen.
      Our Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is not raw. We had a very popular line of raw Coconut Oil, but had to pull it due to supply-chain issues. We’re exploring a replacement vendor right now, but it’s been a bit of a challenge because of our very high Organics standards. We think we may have an announcement coming up pretty shortly though – keep your fingers crossed!

    Thank you so much for sharing you story!!!! I was diagnosed last year with hypothyroidism as well. I was devestated! I have been using supplements and exercising daily and am beginning to feel better. I just finished reading the Coconut Oil Miracle book and am ready to get started eating coconut oil! I have been using it on my skin and hair for the last few months….the next step is to order Nutiva’s organic coconut oil. I have already thrown away the canola oil (yesterday) LOL!!!

    God Bless you and your family!!!

    I have a lower TSH level, however, because it still falls within the medically approved “normal levels”, my physician refused to refer me to an endocrinologist. So, I decided to to it on my own- I use Extra Virgin Coconut oil by the teaspoonful every day — I do use it for cooking and added it to my regular body lotions. My skin is doing much better. I find my bowels are moving more regularly; and am hoping it will help with the weight gain of menopause. Thank you for your article regarding weight loss — I plan to up my intake, and hope for some weight loss. But I do notice that my mindset it much more clear and I do not have the mental fog that has been afflicting me for the past couple years. I can even finish a sentence and say exactly what I mean.

    I had hypothyroidism for about a year that manifested itself as diabetes insipdus. The cause for me was drinking too much green tea – which contains a significant amount of fluoride (combined with fluoridated city water). Fluoride is actually used to treat hyperthyroidism, and too much of it can cause hypothyroidism in some people. But not to discount the benefits of the delicious coconut oil.

      I too am newly diagnosed this year with hypothyroidism.  Hairloss, weight gain, tiredness, brittle nails, extremely cold at times and let’s not mention not sleeping thru the night without medicinal assistance.  Today is May 18, 2011 my second day of taking Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil.  I first tried it on my extremely dry hair and to my amazment (over night!!!) I have brand new hair (not literally) but my hair is soft and shiny again after just 1 use.  So I read it helps with thyroid disease, weight loss and a slew of other conditions.  I decided to incorporate it in my diet however since this is just day 2 I’m going to give it at least 2 weeks before I notice any changes and/or improvements overall.  Wish me luck :-)

    Thank you for posting this I am a newly diagnosed hypothyroid patient. I was shocked to find not much about this but mostly celiac and gluten free information. Thru much trial and error have found that food effects me more that I thought! I hope you are feeling great and live well. God Bless You!

    TAU, THE HEALTH FOOD STORE IN BROSSARD, ONLY HAS THE SMALL BOTTLE OF HEMP OIL.
    WE WANT THE 16 FL.
    CAN YOU HELP US ?

    • http://nutiva.com/articles Nutiva Team

      Hi Vachon.
      Our advice would be for you to communicate with the store owner that you want the 16oz bottle. A store’s buying decisions are influenced by customer requests. We’d also love for them to stock the larger size for you.
