I am 3 days in so far and I have already felt the positive affects of adapting my diet. Not only am I down 3 lbs (I was up to 166 from all of the inflammation and slowing of my digestive tract, and I was originally down to 161), my headaches are delineating, digestion is improving(I am pooping like crazy, which for me is awesome), bloating is going down and overall I am not as fatigued.
This easy-to-make, must-have-staple will be used frequently when you commit yourself to a dairy-free lifestyle. I seriously, do not miss real whipping cream any longer. The benefits of Coconut Milk are numerous, the MCFA’s (medium chain fatty acids) are wonderous and do not increase inflammation in the body like dairy does! I have a couple tricks up my sleeve that have made this process a little easier than when I started. So, please whip it up and enjoy!!

The key to success in this recipe is all in the preparation.
I have tried almost all coconut milks out there and have found Trader Joe's Coconut Cream to be the best option with the best turn out and least waste.
Also, the longer you refrigderate...the better. Many sites will say 24 hours, but really I find again that anything after 48 is best. Also, if you are in a pinch and forgot to do this ahead of time, you can always throw in the freezer for 20-25 minutes. Just want to make sure contents have thoroughly cooled (not froze) before whipping.
Lastly, this trick has been handed down to me by my mama. Before you whip your cream, freeze a metal bowl for about 20-30 minutes. This will ensure that your cream stays cool while you whip the crap out of it!
