What the Experts are Saying:

Not only does it boost metabolism and speed weight loss, there is evidence that suggests that adding a small amount of coconut oil into ones daily diet can help lower cholesterol; improve conditions such as diabetes, chronic fatigue syndrome, IBS, Crohns, and other digestive disorders; enhance thyroid production; and increase overall energy. ~ Cherie Calbom

When I first used coconut oil I saw an immediate response that convinced me my metabolism was chronically inhibited. I kept eating the same foods as before (including a quart of ice cream every day), except that I added about 200 or 250 calories per day as coconut oil. I saw that my weight was slowly and consistently decreasing. It had been steady at 185 pounds for 25 years, but over a period of six months it dropped to about 175 pounds. I found that eating more coconut oil lowered my weight another few pounds, and eating less caused it to increase. ~ Raymond Peat Ph.D.

When taken as a supplement, used in cooking, or applied directly to the skin, coconut oil has been found to promote weight loss, help protect against many diseases, strengthen the immune system, improve digestion, and prevent premature aging of the skin. ~Bruce Fife NC, ND

Americans have a false belief that tropical fats and oils (such as coconut and palm) are unhealthy, asserting that those fats (and coconut, especially) are beneficial saturated fats that should be more heavily incorporated into our diets. ~ Mary Enig and Sally Fallon

You should definitely consider switching to coconut oil for all your sautéing and cooking needs. Coconut oil contains the healthy (and weight reducing!) form of saturated fat, it does not form dangerous trans fatty acids that even olive oil does when heated and it is far, far healthier than all of the other vegetable oils out there. ~ Dr. Joseph Mercola
