As the mainstream dieticians and nutritionists continue sharing their outdated views based on archaic nonsense, we all continue to follow the truth... *yawn Alice H. Lichtenstein, Gershoff Professor of Nutrition Science and Policy at the Friedman School: There is no consistent body of data that I am aware of to indicate that coconut oil has documented specific beneficial effects; hence, there is no data that I’m aware of to suggest people should go out of their way to consume coconut oil. There is some data, however, to suggest it is best to avoid consuming coconut oil because it is relatively high in saturated fatty acids. Saturated fatty acids raise LDL cholesterol, which is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. healthimpactnews/2014/usda-dietary-guidelines-nutritionist-condemns-coconut-oil/
