We’ve heard our folks reminding us to avoid coconut milk because they’ve heard from others its’ fattening and high in cholesterol.This is just a myth. Probably a rumors by commercial industries who wants to sell their hydrogenated vegetable cooking oil to the public. I’ve personally seen a food seller with a tin of cooking oil which labels “Refined, bleached, and deodorized Palm Oil“. And we’re sitting there eating our food!.
For your information, vegetable oil will go rancid, it’s no joke these money minded business people add all sort of stuff in order to sell their products. These refined, bleached, deodorized will definitely cause our body to malfunction which leads to many kind of diseases such as cancer, heart disease and many more you can imagine.
If you really need to use cooking oil, use home made squeezed coconut oil instead. In the long run, you’ll save a lot in your medical fees.

Also maintain our youthfulness such as premature aging, sagging skin, wrinkling, and bone problems.
2) Animal studies on coconut diet
In another experiment, lab animals were fed either a low-fat diet with pure unsaturated oil or a high-fat diet with pure coconut oil. The researchers found that while even small amounts of unsaturated fat caused weight gain, the animals that consumed coconut oil remained lean. This is because coconut oil increases the metabolic rate, which means whoever is consuming the oil will burn calories faster and lose weight (or stay
thin).
A real-life example of how coconut oil can elevate metabolic rates can be found in the people of the Yucatan. They consume high amounts of coconut as a staple food and their average metabolic rate is about 25 percent higher than that of people in the U.S.
