6. Coconut Oil
Coconut oil has been used for hundreds of years for fat burning, as an increased energy source, to help reduce hunger, and promote heart health, while it also contains loads of antimicrobial effects and boosting skin and hair health. When it comes to pink eye, coconut oil can help relieve eye dryness while reducing inflammation to lessen the bothersome effects of irritation that comes with conjunctivitis. Because there are many forms of coconut oil, the best to use for pink eye treatment is unrefined or cold pressed virgin coconut oil in liquid form. Take a cotton ball or pad and put a few drops of oil on it and rub it around the eye area and over the closed eyelid of the affected eye and leave for a few minutes before washing it off with warm water and mild soap. You may even place one or two drops into the eye at bedtime to help soothe the irritation. Of course, if there is any adverse reactions, stop treatment immediately and see a doctor right away.
