Q. How does coconut oil work against yeast infections?
A. Coconut oil has several unique properties that make it an excellent treatment for yeast infections.
Among the most potent natural yeast-fighting substances are lauric acid and caprylic acid, both derived from coconut oil.
All medium chain fatty acids found in coconut oil kill yeast, viruses and bacteria.
Some of these substances are stronger against one type of organism and some work better against others, so when all these elements combine forces in this unique type of oil, they become a daunting weapon against dysbiosis.
When I began researching coconut oil, I noticed that many patients mentioned they were getting relief from a wide variety of symptoms, including fatigue, joint pain, irritability and recurrent bladder infections.
Of course, you’re aware that people suffering from candida infections often complain of precisely these symptoms.
