"Hi Oscar, do you know of anyone that has tried a combination of coconut oil and bht? The coconut oil dissolves the lipid coating of viruses. Then the bht may be more effective. I have read about a study done in the Philippines in which coconut oil got rid of hiv virus."
Dear Shawn from Florida: I am not sure of how best to respond to your question. This is because I only used the BHT with water on an empty stomach method. I had such a spectacular response using this method to treat my hepatitis C infection I saw no reason for mixing BHT with any oil or anything else.
In only 4 weeks on the BHT with water only on an empty stomach I went from being seriously sick with all the usual symptoms of a failing liver: yellow eyes, dark urine, inability to digest most foods to normal liver function and NO VIRUS DETECTED. I started with only 200mg of BHT per day and quickly ramped up to 400mg to 600mg of BHT per day. I was using 200mg of BHT capsules.
This was back in early 1997. I know of NO drug or compound that has ever been shown to produce better results than that.
You asked me if I knew of people who achieved as good or better results mixing BHT with coconut oil. My answer is NO. They may be out there but I do not know of them.
From the extensive research I have done it appears to me that once BHT is dissolved in coconut oil the way it is digested and metabolized differs from the way BHT is metabolized when taken with water only on an empty stomach. The with water only method results in altered forms of BHT interring the bloodstream from the intestines and even the mouth itself if you chew the BHT crystals. With the BHT dissolved in oil mixture it seems to me that BHT is picked up by structures called lipoproteins and distributed in that way to the different cells. In my opinion this defeats the purpose. It makes it so that BHT and it`s metabolites are NOT readily drawn to those viral lipid coatings and the viruses so coated in the bloodstream.
There are people who disagree with me. I have given you my opinion....Oscar

EC: Hi Alize,
No, taking BHT on an empty stomach first thing in the morning works best. You can read Oscar's posts on the BHT page for guidance as he started taking it in 1997 for Hepatitis C. We've attached your post to one of his threads, but there are many more.

Hi Alize,I've been doing the following with the product you just ordered from Earth Clinic:
NOT letting the small included scoop touch my mouth, I pour three 90 mg scoops (the scoop is tiny) into my mouth and immediately drink water to wash the BHT crystals down. So easy, and the BHT crystals are tasteless. As mentioned above in the Editorial Comments section of your post, it's best to take BHT on an empty stomach, according to Oscar, who frequently posted on Earth Clinic about BHT until 2017. You can add a bit of fat to it, but I don't. Been doing this method for years, and it works very well.
I don't take any other supplements for a few hours after taking the BHT and I always take it on an empty stomach.
Note: 270 mg of BHT is my current daily dosage, but people should start with less to see how they feel.

Hi Madelyn,I took BHT only as needed for years if I felt any virus symptoms for one or two days, and I've never gotten sick. However, after I recently extensively researched the topic for Earth Clinic (see our newly revised BHT article if you haven't yet), I was floored and decided to test it for antiaging. I'm only on week two at 180 mg a day, but it's going very well. Tons of energy and very focused.

That's fantastic, Deirdre! I can definitely use more energy. I'm so glad you shared with me how you've been using it. I wish I had some BHT on hand right now because my daughter and I both woke up today with a sore throat, which usually means a cold is starting. I actually feel it at the back on the roof of my mouth. I ordered the 4oz pouch of BHT crystals from the EarthClinic store on Amazon just now. It will be here in 2 days. Why didn't I get this stuff sooner!?What an outstanding article on an even more outstanding substance! I have now classified BHT in my mind as a panacea with all of its benefits and uses. Wow! I had always thought of it for herpes and hepatitis, which I don't have. But now that I am aware of its other benefits, I am excited to begin using it. I plan on reading through all the comments posted under the BHT section as well :)
