RE: Rethinking Coconut Oil - The Not-So-Healthy-Anymore Oil?

Agreed.

We need saturated fat and cholesterol which among other benefits is a building block for hormones like testosterone (have low T? Maybe it's your low fat diet).

I've been eating coconut oil for years and at 50, I'm very lean and fit and last time I checked, my cholesterol levels were spot on.

I always keep an open mind and will change it if I find convincing evidence to do so but IMO the AHA has been dishing out bad dietary advice for 50 years or however long it's been around..

I see evidence of this every morning I run down the beach and see big and sickly looking round people wobbling across the sand...it's very sad.

Sugar is the white devil that causes inflammation in your arteries and cholesterol is sent there to repair the damage.

Want to lose weight? Regain health? Stop eating sugar and things that turn to sugar inside your body.

That strategy works for me :o)
