Why is coconut oil solid?

The World's Skinniest Fat
There is a widely held misconception that saturated fat content raises cholesterol and piles on the kilo's, this is not true. Modern research has found that coconuts act in quite the reverse. Saturated fats are now recognised as essential to health, with no automatic negative impact on bad cholesterol or retention of fat. (The villians of the story are actually Trans Fatty Acids, of which naturally harvested coconut oil contains none.)

Fats from coconut oil are Medium Chain Fatty Acids (MCFs). MCFs are more readily digested and utilised by the body for energy. The fast metabolism of coconut fats sees a quick conversion of fats to energy without taxing the digestive system.

As coconut oil has greater solubility in biological fluids than other fats, digestion of coconut oil places less of a burden on the liver, pancreas and digestive system as a whole. In fact coconut fats are known to have a soothing effect on the intestinal system. Great for sufferers of IBS or CrohnÆs disease.

Coconut fats offer one of the lowest calorie counts of all fats, virtually no cholesterol, and better yet, no Trans-Fats common in commercially produced vegetable oils.

Coconut oil may help reduce "bad" cholesterol (LDL), assist with weight loss, help increase energy levels, boost the body's healing mechanisms, and provide a great tasting alternative to highly processed hydrogenated vegetable oils.
