The Coconut Diet^TM

The Coconut Diet^TM in its most simplest form is simply replacing all transfatty acids in your diet with Virgin Coconut Oil. The only other cooking oils we recommend are Natural Palm Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and organic grass-fed butter. To experience the weight-loss effects and other health benefits of Virgin Coconut Oil, most people take between 2-4  tablespoons a day. There are many ways to incorporate coconut oil into your diet (click here.)

It has also been our experience that most people experience greater weight loss on a low-carb or at least a reduced carb diet. Refined grains, especially, are one of the major culprits of obesity in the US today. Therefore, The Coconut Diet^TM can supplement many popular diets on the market today, such as The Atkins Diet, The Metabolic Typing diets, The Maker's Diet, and many others. While most people starting a low-carb diet feel drained in energy, the increase in metabolism that coconut oil often brings gives unexpected energy to those on the Coconut Diet.

With other low carb programs I would be “dragging” by this time & no weight loss. This is so different. Also I’m not hungry at all, if anything I could eat less.  At this time I have to say I am very pleased with the Coconut Diet, and expect to loose all the weight I want & be a lot healthier. - Janice

When introducing a high quality Virgin Coconut Oil (VCNO) into one's diet, it is important to start slow, because there are certain detoxification effects that could come into play since coconut oil is antibacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-viral. Also, many people are used to low-fat diets, and it takes a while to get used to consuming more fats. The most common side affects when starting out are diarrhea or stomach cramps. Since coconut oil in nature is packaged within the meat of the coconut which is high in fiber and protein, it is recommended that you eat VCNO with high fiber and high protein foods to avoid potential side affects in the beginning.
