I've also never heard of this 'pockets' thing. Looked it up apparently it's a measurement commonly done by periodontists to monitor the progrssion of gum disease. I wil ask my dentist about this next visit.
Also wondering about aluminum-free baking soda...where's aluminum coming from in NaHCO3? I just looked at my boxes (I *heart* baking soda), and none lists anything but sodium bicarbonate...
Coconut oil is the bomb! I'd like to know more uses for it...right now, I use it mostly in food.

Coconut oil for shaving? I can't wait to try it. Does it work ok for the bikini area too? Or best for the legs?

I LOVES me some coconut oil. I use Pure Fiji prodcuts cause they are loaded with it. It's the best way to get all silky smooth.

omg .... I've had a bad sunburn since last Friday and I'm peeling and have cracked skin no matter how much I try to stay moisturized with aloe, etc .....so I broke out the coconut oil ....it's helped so much! The peeling is less painful and my skin is staying more hydrated. i wish I had thought of it earlier on.

I saturated my hair with coconut oil and left it in overnight- when I washed it out completely, the oil had lifted extra pigment out of my hightlighted hair strands, making me look much lighter-haired. Also unfortunately the hair is more brittle- I bought Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Conditioner and it fixed the dry, brittle issue. The whole lifting of extra pigment was a surprise, though.
Great thread! I am always looking for info on natural and/or "green" products so please if people here have ideas or info on these kinds of topics do share.
