"Saturated Fat from Coconuts Is...Super Healthy"

Chris Wark writes . . .
In recent years coconut oil has made a comeback, as scientific research has proven that saturated fat from coconuts is in fact super healthy.
Saturated fats from plant sources like coconuts, olives, avocados, and some nuts are good for our cells, bones, blood, cardiovascular system, liver, immune system, and brain.
Coconut oil has even been shown to prevent colon and breast cancer in laboratory tests. 
It also assists in weight loss, which is why islanders who consume a lot of coconut in their diet are rarely overweight.
And coconut oil also great for your skin and hair.
Coconut oil has been shown to prevent and/or reverse Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Mary Newport M.D. has a site called coconut ketones.com. It’s a great resource for more information about this.
Cooking with coconut oil is amazing.  It smells soooo good and adds delicious new flavor to everything from scrambled eggs to stir fry.  Cook with it once and you’ll be hooked.
Somedays I just eat a spoonful of coconut oil or coconut butter for a quick fix.
We’re so crazy about coconut oil, we buy Giant Tubs of the stuff!
