Coconut oil is good for cooking because it tastes great, but regardless of whether it'a a shorter chain triglyceride than other fats it's still 90% saturated and therein lies the problem. I wouldn't use it as a primary source of fats long term, for my money you're better off with olive oil or similar which is low in saturates. Everything is fine in moderation and it does taste fantastic, and it has a high burning point too which is good for stir fries etc.
90% saturated is not correct, think before you type.
As far as I can find the 90% saturated figure is correct.
coconut oil is good for cooking because the structure does not change under high temperature
Coconut Oil of course has its health benefits - but its abit of a "fad" health product at the moment - aslong as your getting some good fats into your diet I don't think it matters to much the source i.e MCT oil, almond oil, Udo's oil, nuts, coconut oil etc etc
Yeah this. Any food can have health benefits if you look hard enough. If you are eating a wide variety of foods the supposed benefits of individual foods don't really matter.
Despite marketing towards some foods there is no such thing as a miracle food.
It would be pretty stupid to add a heap of coconut oil into your diet because of its dubious health claims.
Basically if you like the taste have some if not who cares.
