Virgin Coconut Oil and Manuka Honey/Oil

I've been on a kick lately of sharing info on Virgin Coconut Oil with anyone that tells be about things that it might help - I LOVE the stuff!!  There is more and more research on the uses of the stuff - it is liquid gold when it comes to keeping the body healthy. The virgin part is important because it means it is unprocessed and has lauric acid in it ( the same thing that is in breast milk to help babies stay well). I bought a huge jar of it on Amazon when we got to Glenwood Springs and use it with cook, with Aloe on my face, all over my prego belly, on dry skin, in my tea (up to 3-4 Tbsp can be taken to help digestive system health, fight bacteria/virus/fungus in the system), on my baby's skin, in my Neti pot, to fight my 3 year old's external yeast infections (read it can be put on a tampon for this as well in women) and the Ringworm she picked up somewhere last week... and on and on.  I discovered it when looking for options for Autumn's recurring yeast infections after she was on serious amounts of antibiotics with a horrid MRSA infection last year and it has become a permanent part of our lives!

 Pure Manuka Honey and Oil are likely the most effective staph killers (and good at killing other bacterias as well) - from what I read it is what they use on a wound that isn't responding to any prescription medication in other countries.  Sure seems like we should be using it as a first line of defense instead of creating super bugs that become antibiotic resistant.  I will never go anywhere with out either the honey or oil in tow.  Regular honey is antibacterial on wounds and medicinal Manuka honey is 8-16x more antibacterial than honey.  It is what we put on our band aids instead of neosporin (which is pretty useless against any serious bacteria).  The honey can be used to kill strep throat or taken to kill a bacterial stomach infection. It can also be melted in a neti pot to kill bacteria in the sinus.  If something might be yeast it is best to stick with either the oil or Coconut oil as the sugar in the honey could feed the yeast/fungus. The oil is for topical use only and should be used with caution - http://www.livestrong.com/article/150268-what-are-the-dangers-of-manuka-oil/ 
The oil needs better research for dosing and uses - but it is the first thing I will put on a sealing band aid if I ever see a boil on any of us again
