Hemochromatosis Support Group
Hemochromatosis is a hereditary disease characterized by improper processing by the body of dietary iron which causes iron to accumulate in a number of body tissues, eventually causing organ dysfunction. It is the main iron overload disorder. Hemochromatosis is notorious for having symptoms that are often initially misattributed to other diseases.
Hope you get great news about your taxes too!

1 TBS p/day b/c it could cause diarrhea. Gradually increse every few days to 4 TBS p/day. I started with 2 and will now increase to 3. It works great over rice, oatmeal, gravies, etc. Don't scramble your eggs in the oil... GROSS!... (it does have the distinct coconut aroma) You can split it up 1 TBS each time & not all at once. (it does have the distinct coconut aroma)
I'll ck my Facebook page/HH group, I may have posted it there:)

The brain help was the reason I started looking into it, the mental fuction/clearing because of my Dad's stroke and the Alzheimers. As I read more about it & watched the video (I'll attach it- it's by a Dr and her husband, & they don't sell the stuff), I saw that it helped "brain fog". I'm thinking.... SIGN ME UP!" THEN, I found the other article. I'm going to continue to test this to see if it reduces again (3 weeks from now). And... ummmm... I'm a member of your AAA club :)

This Dr., with her husband, has videos on youtube, too.
If you don't like the taste, you can buy the oil in capsules from (for instance) here: http://www.iherb.com/Search?kw=coconut+oil+capsules
iHerb are very good and reliable, and their P&P is very reasonable, even to where I am, in the Netherlands.
