Tomorrow, a new study will confirm that the coconut oil is healthy, after all.
25 years ago coconut oil was ver unhealthy. Then it became healthy. Now it’s bad for you again.
So, which is it, really?
Dr Mercola explains why coconut oil is good to use:

NBC says so, that’s why.
Maybe they don’t want you to believe it’s healthy.
There are two kinds of saturated fats, trans-fat and cis-fat.
Cis-fats are the natural kind of saturated fats, and there is no right-angle twist in the aliphatic chain. Trans-fats are formed by hydrogenating unsaturated aliphatic chains, and wind up with a right-angle kink in the aliphatic chain, which is stored on the body, but cannot be utilized later for energy purposes. It is the kind of stubborn fat that can NEVER be exercised or starved off the fat stores deposited throughout the body.
But most people would not have any way of knowing that.
It’s a “study” so it must be true.
Not true. What dope wrote this garbage?
Use olive oil.
Saturated fats are healthier because they allow your body to create stable membranes. They also take much longer to go rancid.
All the rest of the world shows studies supporting saturated fats as now being healthier. Our AHA tells us the best thing you could do is eat margarine.
They are blind to the better research.
By the way, low-carb dieters get excellent blood test results.
LOL
I learned, from my mother’s following “health food” advice from various sources, pretty much to ignore it.
When I heard about coconut oil and how great it was supposed to be, my first thought was “yeah, right”.
The Lefty control-freaks will never give up their anti-saturated-fat fetish.

This public service message brought to you by the Olive Oil Producers of America. :)
Great on popcorn though. Does the STUDY show it’s ok on popcorn?
[[A new study shows that coconut oil isn’t as healthy as many believed it was. In fact, it’s not healthy at all. ]]
Yeah, you might die at age 86 3/4 instead of 87
Jury is still out on caffeine and salt as well.
I thought the problem was polyunsaturated fat, like in margarine and safflower oil.
But it’s great with lime.
Idiots. Coconut oil and avocados are critical to nervous system health. The demonization of fats in favor of carbs was disastrous to 2 generations of Americans — with massively increased rates of Alzeimer’s, Parkinson’s, MS and other neurological disorders as a result. Remember the promotion of margarine over butter, and urging people to cut down on eggs and egg yolks? Also contributed horribly.
Coconut oil makes the best popcorn.
