Coconut Oil for IBS:
Keep those Pipes Clean
and Flowing Steadily


Coconut oil for IBS or Irritable Bowel Syndrome is a match made in therapeutic heaven. Coconut oil (CNO) can help restore regular stool movement naturally and safely.

Before CNO became a regular part of my diet, I mostly had loose bowel movements, and an erratic one at that. After about a week of taking 1 tablespoon of coconut oil a day, my stool became solid and soft consistently. Since then, I've been actually enjoying my trips to the toilet 95% of the time.

Fiber is an essential nutrient that plays an important part in keeping a robust digestive system. There are two main categories of fiber, soluble and insoluble. Both have their beneficial uses so none is necessarily better than the other.

Since insoluble fiber encourages proper bowel movement much more than soluble fiber does, it makes a lot of sense to incorporate much more insoluble ones into your diet, if you have IBS or spastic colon.

A combination of coconut oil and coconut meat will do wonders for your colon health. Coconut meat by weight is 34% oil. It's also a rich source of insoluble dietary fiber. This vital nutrient provides size and body to the waste which allows intestinal muscles to quickly and smoothly move it along and out of your body. Actually, coconut flour does this even better.

CNO unleashes its powerful antimicrobial, medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA), to support a healthy intestinal environment. Strengthening the immune system happens to be coconut oil's specialty and just in case you don't know yet, 80% of your immune system is in your intestines.
