Virgin Coconut oil for Covid treatment? yeah, you heard that correctly. well, according to the article(quoted below) researchers in the Philippines sees Virgin coconut oil as a potential covid treatment since their research shows that Virgin coconut oil(VCO)  "decreased coronavirus count by 60 to 90 percent at low viral load." and "Researchers also discovered that the compounds were observed to improve cell survival.". according to them. further research, test and experiments are still needed whether higher concentration would lead to better results.

I am glad that researchers are finding a natural remedy that is abundant in the Philippines as a possible treatment for covid-19. I just hope their research ends up as a huge breakthrough to fight covid-19 here in the Philippines.

I remember that too. but at that time they were only testing it because of the antiviral properties of the virgin coconut oil have but now, they have positive results from the tests they have conducted all these months.

we are also seeing a drop of cases here in my area(even though a lot of people are not following proper protocols).

just read an article about it. very interesting. but the DOH still advises following health protocols to "prevent the transmission of the virus and at the same time protect us from getting sick"

I like Duterte but gotta say this covid thing has been run very poorly in the Philippines. An already precarious economy has been absolutely REKT, middle low income class in particular - let alone tourism and hotels.

Meron ba dito nakakaalam kung may libreng swab testing pa? or lahat may bayad na? Salamat.

un nga din ang balita ko pinatigil daw muna sa red cross, kaya sa nga private hospitals magbbyad pra lang sa swab test, langya libo ang gagastusin para lang dun tapos ang treatment sayo din.
ilalockdown ko n lang siguro sarili ko for 1 month, sa treatment n lng ako gagastos

naka 50-50 kasi ako gawa din ng asawa ko, yung kawork nya eh hindi pa din sigurado at aantayin pa ang swab result... tapos bukas pa ang sched ng asawa ko para sa swab, kaya sa malamang kung sakali kakailanganin ko din magpaswab, pero yun nga kung dumating man yung worst scenario eh magkukulong na lang ako sa bahay hindi na ako magpapaswab. kumpleto na naman ako ng gamot dito pati antibiotics. magtatanong na lang ako sa kakilala kong doctor.

Pero sana milagro pa rin na hindi sila mahawaan, ung gastos kasi talaga ang magiging concern dito sa covid hnd yung treatment.

Sorry to hear about your situation paps. Napagdadaanan ko ring yang mga quarantine na yan dahil din may katrabaho yong misis ko na nag-positive tapos lahat ng close contact nong nagpositive ay isinwab kasama na yong asawa ko buti nalang negative lahat ng resulta.

Sa sitwasyon mo paps, kung positive yong asawa mo sa swab (knock on wood) kailangan mo rin magpa-swab dahil close contact ka at kung positive ka sa virus pwede ka naman na mag-home quarantine, 14 days lang yon at pagkatapos ay considered recovered ka na.

Kailangan mo lang magpalakas ng katawan, uminom ng vitamins C, saktong tulog at exercise, yong ang ginawa ko at very effective naman siya sa akin. Huwag na huwag kang magpapatalo sa stress, kung kailangan mo ng kausap, tawagan mo pamilya mo, humingi ka ng advise sa kanila. Lilipas din yan lahat.

yun nga lang para lang yata sa manileno ang free swab, saklap lang taga rizal ako, wala pang kwenta mayor dito... medyo nakakaumay din kapag nagpaswab, dahil yun nga sa mahal mahal ng babayaran mo eh para lang yun malaman kung positive o negative ka, tapos ang treatment same pa rin naman at sagot mo pa rin. Kaya dapat talaga kung sagit din ng tao ang mga sarili nila dapat gawin na lang libre ang swab test.
