Hi there! I am a 38 yr old fitness instructor living in Florida. I would say that my interest in eating “RAW” or mostly RAW is based out of a desire for optimal health in conjunction with a balanced outlook on life in general. Basically, I am in relatively good shape and quite healthy. I have not been sick for over 20 years. I am 5’3’’ and 104 lbs. Before I started eating this way, my ideal of “healthy eating” was very different. I know eating more RAW (about 80%) has not only changed my body but my entire outlook on the way I live my life and the person I aspire to be. My question is for those of you with a background in fitness and health. I am vigilant about getting my “good fats” so that my weight does not get to low, but some old habits die. I am intrigued about the health benefits of coconut oil/butter BUT I can’t get past what I have been programed to think about it. For those of you who have knowledge on this subject, please respond as I would like to benefit from it’s praise given here on this site. I am grateful for the opportunity to post her. Thank you in advance. ‘

Thanks Bluedolphin. Do you use coconut oil/butter and in what capacity and with what regularity. I looked at your profile and value your opinion. I will take your advice when you respond as well. Thanks in advance. I look forward to hearing back from you and anyone else :) I’m off to teach so I will be back later…
