oconut oil has been used forfood and health care for cen-turies in South and Central
America, Asia, and Africa. It has beenrecognized as a health oil in IndianAyurvedic herbalism for almost fourthousand years. Yet in the 1950s, it gota bad rap as a supposedly fattening“tropical oil.” Science now proves thetraditional wisdom was correct allalong: coconut oil is a healthy oil; it isnot typically stored as a fat in thebody. Since it is not stored, it provides
an immediate source of energy, and containsimportant nutrients for good health.
All saturated fats are not equal; all saturat-ed fats do not raise cholesterol levels inthe blood. Source Naturals EXTRA VIRGIN

Extra VirginCoconut OilA Healthy Oil from the Tropics
Good Fats, Bad FatsConfused about fats and oils? So aremany consumers. Since the 1950s, Amer-icans have been bewildered by the misin-formation given to them in the media.They have been provided with mislead-ing and conflicting cholesterol informa-tion, they’ve lacked proper studies of thedifferences in saturated fats, and they’venot been taught that there are fundamen-tal differences in the type and quality ofsaturated fats a person consumes, notrealizing that the health effects vary wide-ly. The confusion was then compoundedby misleading information from the edi-ble oils industry—as a result, billions ofdollars have been made marketing foodsmade with hydrogenated vegetable oils.The confusion has resulted in an Ameri-can diet glutted in hydrogenated, transfat-laden, highly toxic, rancid, unnaturaloils. Only relatively recently have the neg-ative effects of products such as margarineor refined shortening been known to thegeneral public. And in the meantime, thenatural, healthy oils have been ignored.
What’s the Difference?Coconut oil is composed of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), so it is lesslikely to be stored in the body as fat asare long-chain triglycerides (LCTs).MCTs boost metabolism because theyare absorbed from the small intestineinto circulation and to the liver, quicklymetabolizing into energy. LCT’s, on theother hand, are stored as fat. MCTs helpthe body increase its metabolism and
give a feeling of fullness and increasedenergy. The MCTs in coconut oil arelargely comprised of lauric acid andcaprylic acid, both of which aid theimmune system.
