Also, inside the body is not room temperature, unless you are dead. Then, of course, coconut oil in your gut is the least of your problems.

So the fats in cocnut oil go directly into your bloodstream and clog your arteries? Sounds like bs.

He managed to live to 100, so whatever he did worked for him. The Sugar industry paid for his research...not his personal diet. Ancel Keyes is a true villain.
