Once a Villain, Coconut Oil Charms the Health Food World
Andrew Scrivani for The New York Times
Coconut-oil-roasted sweet potatoes; the oil enhances their caramelized flavor.
By Melissa Clark
Published: March 1, 2011
A FEW years ago I noticed something odd at the health food store. There, rubbing elbows with the extra-virgin olive oil and cold-pressed canola oil was virtually the last fat I expected to see in such esteemed company: coconut oil.
The last time I checked, coconut oil was supposed to be the devil himself in liquid form, with more poisonous artery-clogging, cholesterol-raising, heart-attack-causing saturated fat than butter, lard or beef tallow.
Its bad reputation caused a panic at the concession stands back in 1994, when the Center for Science in the Public Interest put out a study claiming that a large movie-theater popcorn, hold the butter, delivered as much saturated fat as six Big Macs. “Theater popcorn ought to be the Snow White of snack foods, but it’s been turned into Godzilla by being popped in highly saturated coconut oil,” Michael Jacobson, the executive director of the center, a consumer group that focuses on food and nutrition, said at the time.
So given all this greasy baggage, what was coconut oil doing in a health food store? In fact, it has recently become the darling of the natural-foods world. Annual sales growth at Whole Foods “has been in the high double digits for the last five years,” said Errol Schweizer, the chain’s global senior grocery coordinator.
Two groups have helped give coconut oil its sparkly new makeover. One is made up of scientists, many of whom are backtracking on the worst accusations against coconut oil. And the other is the growing number of vegans, who rely on it as a sweet vegetable fat that is solid at room temperature and can create flaky pie crusts, crumbly scones and fluffy cupcake icings, all without butter.

Coconut Oil for Yeast Infections:
The Medium Chain fatty acids found in Nature’s Approved Coconut Oil are broken down by the liver into ketone bodies which can be taken up by the cells and used as food to produce energy. When absorbed by a harmful organism (such as yeast, viruses or bacteria) these medium chain fatty acids help weaken the organism's cell wall causing it to disintegrate.
Nature’s Approved coconut oil contains antifungal, antiviral and antibacterial properties. It is safe to take 3-4 tablespoons per day, some people take more.
Used before tennis or strenuous activity- it improves energy levels and peaks about 4 hours later.
Coconut Oil for Brain Fuel
Dr. Mary Newport in discussing Coconut Oil as providing fuel for the brain wrote: "Brain cells, specifically neurons,... normally require glucose (sugar) but they can also use ketone bodies. [In some cases]... neurons in certain areas of the brain are unable to take in glucose... and slowly die off... If these cells had access to ketone bodies, they could potentially stay alive and continue to function." Coconut Oil is comprised of 60% MCT fats, which are easily converted by the liver into these much needed ketone bodies.

On the slopes of an old inactive volcano on one of the 345 beautiful islands in Fiji, with tropical plants everywhere and a great view of the sea, careful waste avoidance, use of renewable fuel and a green operations have long been the rule.
Coconut husks and shells and old coconut trees fuel the boiler….that produces the steam…. that runs the steam engine…. that drives the generator…. that provides power for the coconut oil press, machinery and lights for the factory and worker’s homes. Large quantities of diesel fuel would have had to be burnt to substitute.......
*************************************************
Several experts have attested to the worthiness and health benefits of virgin coconut oil:
Dr. Mary Enig, Phd (author of "Know Your Fats") and Dr Bruce Fife (author of best-selling book "The Coconut Oil Miracle") have gathered research and studies from recent years to show the benefits of consuming medium chain triglycerides (MCT) acids such as are found in virgin coconut oil. They report reduced levels of viruses in tests done on patients using coconut oil in its unrefined state.
An article in Women‘s World drew on parts of these and highlighted the propensity of these fatty acids to stimulate the thyroid gland and thus raise the metabolic rate. Examples were given of comfortably achieved large weight losses. A faster metabolic rate will lead to a weight loss. We crave fat, and diets that deny us fat leave us unsatisfied and vulnerable to rapid weight gain after the diet is over.
About 50 percent of coconut oil is lauric acid, which the body converts into monolaurin. Laboratory studies show that monolaurin inactivates some bacteria and viruses.Virgin Coconut oil with its medium chain fatty acids are unlike other "saturated" fats as the body handles them differently and they are rapidly absorbed into the blood stream. It is extremely beneficial for immune function. Coconut is free of cholesterol and is a healthy, energy-boosting fat that will not increase cardiovascular disease.
