Eurypegasus draconis is traded as a marine medicinal that is a lower-cost option for maladies often treated by seahorses and pipefishes (Vincent 1997). Live sea moths are also sold in the aquarium trade (Vincent 1997, Pajaro et al. 2004).
Most head lice shampoos that contain coconut oil also contain anise seed, ylang ylang and isopropyl alcohol. These shampoos have a very strong licorice scent due to the anise seed. The coconut oil kills the adult lice and the newly hatched nymphs, but not the eggs, so combing is still necessary. Shampooing and combing should be repeated a minimum of four times, with each shampoo being done three days apart.
For oral lichen planus, coconut oil pulling twice a day may improve the symptoms and provide relief. The process helps to detoxify your mouth by literally sucking out the toxins. Benefits include killing bad breath, soothing a dry mouth, reducing inflammation, and boosting the immune system.
