Re: Coconut Oil KILLS !!!

Nice try. What happens is that if you feed coconut oil to a group of
animals raised on "standard chow," they will release AA, which can
cause all kinds of damage. The animals must be raised on a non-
linoleic acid rich diet, or else the control is improper. And

All the quibbling in the world will not change the fact
that the low saturated fat/moderate unsaturated fat diet
is almost universally accepted as best for cardiovascular
health. Your belief that coconut oil and other saturated
fat are health and that unsaturated faqts are not healthful
is a fringe notion, far outside of the scientific mainstream.
And the reason for that is the scientific evidence. Study
after study supports the conventional view that saturated
fats like coconut oil are the worst for your health.

I notice you did not have any studies or other evidence
to dispute what I posted. The link between saturated
fat and cardiovascular disease is among the most
well-established connections between diet and disease
in medical science.

"raising cholesterol" (usually, the rise is small) is not a problem so
long as it is not oxidized. Only PUFA-rich LDL is a problem in the
CHD context in any case. As to humans, the raw demographic data is
what it is. You cannot go back in time and try to "spin" it. If
coconut consumption was so dangerous, there would have been very high
CHD rates in nations like Sri Lanka, the Philippines, Thailand, etc.,
and there were very low rates. Over the last few years, they have
been switching over to oils like Canola. I posted a study about this
a while back about Malaysia, where it was stated explicitly. And what
about me, on a SFA-rich but PUFA-poor diet since 2001. When should I
die of a heart attack, according to you? I was in my late 30s in 2001.

We'll just have to wait and see. But surely you are
following a very risky diet.
