Coconut Oil

I have long known that coconut oil was greatly beneficial to healthy hair. I use it as a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week. But the other benefits were a big surprise to me!

Anyone else here use it on a regular basis? Wonder if we can use it for lube? I'm sure the taste is a huge improvement over astroglide.

let's test it!
I have used it as a mouthwash when I felt a sore throat coming on. It is supposed to have anti-viral/bacterial properties.
But I think it would stain clothing, bedding, etc, like any oil does.
It's also great for stir fry.

Zippo lighter fluid removes most stains from clothing... Including oil. It even removes tar!!

Oh my... and Cajun is my thing. How about some boudin fritters, too? I would guess that combo would be worth at least a full carat ring...
"Dessert" would probably up that to two carats.

Be careful what you ask for... My wish list resides at Tiffany's.

Maybe we need to add another "C"... Color, cut, clarity, cuisine.
I forgot to volunteer to be a subject in any coconut oil experiment you conduct. I have an unopened 54 oz jar of organic extra virgin just waiting for you. We can discuss diamond cut styles while researching.

I also love coconut oil because it's the only time I ever qualify for "extra-virgin" anything. Lol!
Well, consider the extra virgin coconut oil yours when you get here.
And bring that lighter fluid...
While on the subject of miracle substances, a while back at the end of an awesome bbbjcim, the provider asked me if I ate a lot of fruit. I do and I asked her how she knew. She answered that jizz from a lot of guys tastes sour but mine did not. Since one of my favorite things is a lady that does not stop until I beg her to, I have since doubled my consumption of pineapple. I have seen this discussed a little on the national board and pineapple juice seems to work just as well.
Good info. I know I avoid asparagus before activity because of the opposite result of fruit. I wonder what other fruits work. I love pineapple but it irritates my mouth.
i guess there's a sex angle to everything.

thank god
I would guess that all fruit would do the trick... & coconut is a fruit.

But I will have to keep guessing, since CIM is just not my thing.
