Coconut Flour

Do you use coconut flour? Is it safe after surgery? How soon can you start eating it?

This is probably a question for your nutritionist. I have never personally used it. Although it is lower in carbs than wheat flour, it is still far from carb free. It also has a lot of saturated fat.

Fat from coconut is a good fat.

I haven't used it since surgery, but I use that and a bunch of non traditional flours. I prefer buying then from Bob's Red Mill because they don't use GMO's.

I will ask my NUT.

Please let us know what you find out - I'm interested in the answer!

It's approved by my team and I use it (not frequently bc of the carbs) but along with almond flour and flax and oats. Coconut flour + protein powder + ricotta cheese makes a darn good pancake! I spread it with peanut or almond butter (no sugar added) and it's great pre race fuel when I run!

Oh and an egg too forgot to add that! And a bit of vanilla or SF torani syrup
