Coconut Macaroon Pioneer Pleased With Results
Posting Date: 06/14/2001
Q. I am writing to you about the many articles you've written on coconut macaroon cookies since I first wrote you about them. I am amazed at the response you have gotten.
Three years ago in August, I discovered this diarrhea remedy, and it is still working great for me. Every time an article about coconut macaroons appears in my paper, I get a wonderful feeling because it also might be helping someone else. And to think it all started by accident.
If anyone asks me about the cookies I am only too happy to tell them of my experience. I always tell them that you took a chance on printing my letter back in November 1998 to get the word out. For almost three years now I've been able to leave for work in the morning and not have to plan ahead to where the next restroom is. Thank you and keep up the good work!
A. We thank you, Donald Agar of Pittsfield, MA, for your original observation that coconut macaroons control chronic diarrhea: "I have had Crohn's disease for 40 years, and during that time I have had a never-ending battle with diarrhea. Lomotil helps some, but it doesn't eliminate the problem.
"Three months ago, I bought a box of Archway Coconut Macaroon cookies. I've been eating two a day and I have not experienced diarrhea in that time. If by chance I eat three in a day, I get constipated. Believe me, I have a new life now."
Because of your letter, many people have found relief from diarrhea. Some have written to tell us about their extraordinary experiences with coconut. A biochemist, Mary G. Enig, Ph.D., suggests the antibacterial action of lauric acid in coconut may be responsible for its benefits.
