Coconut Oil Research

As a society in tune with media reports, it is no wonder that you may doubt Coconut Oil as a supplement in your lifestyle. These reports highlight that Coconut Oil is high in saturated fat. In fact, it contains over 90%. Moreover, saturated fats are linked to elevated cholesterol levels and blocked coronary arteries. Fortunately, there are several scientific studies to debunk these claims.

The truth is, not all saturated fats are the same. The fatty acids in Coconut Oil, known as medium chain triglycerides, actually do not raise serum cholesterol or contribute to heart disease. Even more interesting, studies have shown that Asian cultures that eat significant amounts of coconut in their diet don't suffer from diseases that are seen in western cultures.

In addition to incorrect information, the American Heart Association wanted to change the American diet which was, and still is, causing obesity and heart disease. Saturated fats were believed to be the culprits, and the American Heart Association encouraged consumers to change to polyunsaturated fats. Coconut Oil was included on the list of culprits, and the benefits were ignored. The truth is that switching US citizens to unsaturated fats has NOT reduced obesity or heart disease.

The American Heart Association disregarded the fact that Coconut Oil is made up of 62% medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs). This makes it healthier, easier to digest and absorb. It also can boost the immune system, and help the body fight viruses and bacteria because it contains Lauric Acid.

Overall, Coconut Oil is safe with several health benefits. You can feel confident in adding it to your daily regimen. Also feel the most confident by purchasing Perfect Coconut Oil which is made from only the freshest coconuts without fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides.
