Diet Food / Low Calorie Cooking:Coconut or not
2003-09-04
Name: Nina



Hello,
I am reading several articles online stating the benefits of coconut oil...
still, others say it's \";oil\";...so it isn't good.

I love cooking healthy, but now, I am wondering if I should give it up. I use the oil carefully, never over doing it...

Please tell me what you know about it.

Thank you...
Nina

hi nina,
cocunut has harmful saturated fat, which is disastrous for health. It has harmful heart clogging colestrol. so limit the usuage of cocunut oil. but u can use olive oil and other vegetable oil as much as u want. coz they contain essential fatty acids which is good for health.

Subject:  palm oils



there is something bad abt palm oils, of which coconut is one. i keep thinking it's cholesterol, but i then i think chol comes from animal products. maybe it's saturated fats or something. i forget, but i gave up using coconut and dende oils, too, a few years ago. dende has a nice subtle flavor and gives a beautiful saffron color, but the stuff is enough to kill you, i guess. or harden your arteries into bricks.

i'll see if i can find why i gave up palm oils.
