Coconut Oil Ear Infection:
The Safe, Natural and
Antibiotic-less Approach

Ear infections are the most common reason children are given antibiotics. If you’re worried about the overuse of these drugs and their harmful effects, welcome to the club!

Ask yourself this question. What if the infection is not bacterial as believed?

A study in the Journal of the American Medical Association discovered that for children ranging 6 months to 12 years old, waiting 48 hours and receiving only pain medicine was just as effective in clearing up the ear infections as giving antibiotics immediately.

Could it be that viruses are sometimes to blame? Antibiotics are powerless against viruses, which could have led to the above findings, don’t you agree?

Good thing there’s coconut oil!

Bacterial or viral, coconut oil will help cure ear infection. You can even throw fungal, parasitic, etc. in the mix if you like. Here’s why.

Coconut oil kills a long list of bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites and protozoa. It can do this because coconut oil is the richest natural source of medium chain fatty acids (MCFA).

MCFAs are a special and practically rare form of fatty acids. They provide coconut oil the supreme antimicrobial punch or muscle you won’t find in any other oil or fat. Here's what you need to do...

Fill an eyedropper with coconut oil. Lie on your side and put several drops into your ear canal. Remain like this for a few minutes.

To help work the oil down the canal, move your jaw around. Squeeze a small piece of cotton into your ear and keep it there for 20 minutes or so to prevent the oil from leaking out. But please do not use this procedure if you suspect a punctured eardrum.

Take the coconut oil maintenance dose to overwhelm the infection from the inside. Coconut oil ear infection benefits are best achieved by utilizing both the external and internal plans of attack.

MCFA-rich coconut oil destroys simple germs living on your skin, all the way to the dreaded AIDS and SARS virus. And it does all these without the negativity associated with antibiotics.
