Contrary to popular belief the saturated fats in organic virgin coconut oil is the healthiest you will ever find. Even more so than olive oil. See years ago when doctors tested coconut oil they tested the ones you find in supermarket shelves, which are refined, bleached, deodorized etc, stripped of it's natural life giving properties. Coconut oil coconut oil contains medium chains triglycerides. Using coconut oil daily, here is what you can find. Normalized blood pressure, arthritis a thing of the past, eased constipation etc. The book "Natural Cures They Don't Want You To Know About" by Kevin Trudeau talks of it. Coconut oil is best when it it is cold pressed, unrefined, unbleached. Here is some reading material for you. Coconut oil is now part of my daily life.To begin with virgin coconut oil is one of the safest oils to cook with. It does not contain trans fatty acids and does not break down, even at high temperatures, unlike many other oils. check out this site it will explain it all better.

for dry hair i suggest that before showers u massage your scalp with coconut oil. dry skin moisturize every day and also rub in some petroleum jelly on the dry spots. pimples are also sometimes cause by gettin too hot from the inside so my advice dont eat too many eggs,mangoes,etc. eat more cucumbers etc.if u do eat an egg or something like that then i suggest that u have a cucumber or milkshake with it.drink lots of water too. hope this helps

Because coconut oil is very very high in SATURATED FAT.....and usually food that is cooked in coconut oil is also high in saturated fat..........saturated fat is bad fat.......very bad........too much of it in your body.....over time can start to clog your arteries.........which restricts blood flow around the body and too the heart which leads to heart problems, heart disease, heart attacks??>.......and too much saturated fat causes obesity which has a whole range of health problems with it as well.......it is best to eat healthy benefical fats like polyunsaturated and monounsaturated which is in olive oil, nuts, fish, avocados.....these fats help to take this bad fat away from your arteries......and back to the liver where it is used........these fats also help to protect you heart..........so i would not eat anything cooked in those fats coconut, palm oil, i would just have things with olive oil.........

It's only a bit bad as you get lots of good vegetables with it and it is so delicious.......and the vegetables balance it out and coconut is a natural food and a staple diet of some islanders who consume lots of it.......

coconut oil is saturated fat. makes it harder to be broken down due to its chemical structure. unsaturated fat on the other hand has a kink in its structure rendering it easier to be broken down.
