CoconutOil.com is one of the leading publishers of information on the Internet regarding coconut oil and Alzheimer’s Disease. As this news of coconut oil’s effectiveness in dementia and Alzheimer’s increases, more and more people are trying coconut oil with their loved ones suffering from Alzheimer’s Disease and dementia and seeing tremendous results. See our main article regarding why coconut oil may be so effective in fighting Alzheimer’s and other neurological diseases. We have been covering the news on the health benefits of coconut oil for 12 years now.
So naturally the national organization for Alzheimer’s Disease, The Alzheimer’s Association, has to deal with all of the attention that coconut oil is receiving, and they did so last week on their blog. In a blog post by Elizabeth Edgerly, Ph.D., the chief program officer for the Alzheimer’s Association, Northern California and Northern Nevada Chapter, they addressed publicly the issue of Alzheimer’s and coconut oil that so many people apparently had been contacting them about. Here is what Elizabeth Edgerly wrote:
Being a blog post, comments were allowed fortunately. Here is what one commentor named Melissa wrote (at least it was still there at the time of publication of this article):
I will say that this is a personal choice for anyone debating whether to try adding coconut oil to the diet of a loved one with Alzheimer’s. In MY experience, it has been effective but it’s not a cure (as of yet!!). It has been effective in the things that matter the most: my 67 year old father has come back to us!! He participates in conversations again. He no longer seems spaced out. He smiles again. He helps around the house washing dishes and dusting, etc. As far as his memory is concerned, his recent memory has improved. Enough that his primary care physician has noticed the improvement and is now interested in the research behind my father’s new diet. I could be here all day talking about the things that have improved but in the end this is a personal decision. But I leave you with a question…what do you have to lose??
