Summary
This study tests whether rinsing with virgin coconut oil can prevent severe mouth sores in children and young adults (ages 7-26) undergoing high-dose chemotherapy before a stem cell transplant. About 60 participants will either receive standard mouth rinses or standard rinses plus coconut oil. The goal is to see if coconut oil reduces the severity of oral mucositis, a painful side effect that can make eating and drinking difficult.
