Coconut Cooking Oil:
Your Last Oil-Change

By simply replacing all the oils in your diet that are made of long-chain triglycerides (LCT) such as soybean, canola and safflower oils, you can lose up to 36 pounds of unwanted fat a year. This is according to researchers at McGill University in Canada.

Wait, there's more. You can shed this much weight without even changing your usual diet. Meaning, you can still consume the same number of calories, but this time, less guilt. What, you think I'm joking?

You see, coconut oil is a saturated fat predominantly consisting of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT). MCTs are very different from LCTs which mainly comprise almost all other fats or oils.

Quick-Energy Fat

MCTs are instantly converted into energy. They are absorbed directly from the intestines into the portal vein and sent straight to the liver, to be burned as fuel.

LCTs require pancreatic enzymes to break them first into smaller units. They initially bypass the liver and are dumped into the bloodstream to circulate throughout your body.

MCT-rich coconut oil produce energy, first and foremost. MCTs rarely contribute to fat build-up.

LCT-oils, on the other hand, will end up as excess body fat as long as you're eating enough to satisfy your body's immediate energy requirements.

The Formula-1 of Dietary Oils

Look at it this way. You regularly change your vehicle's engine oil, right? You do this to keep the engine running efficiently and to avoid premature wear and tear, right?

Well, it's the same with your body. Fats is an integral nutrient your body requires to function properly. Your brain is 60% fat. But you have to consume the right kinds of fatty acids. Think of coconut oil as the best motor oil for your vehicle.

Now if for some reason you don't like the aroma and flavor of coconuts, you can always use the refined type. My wife uses refined coconut cooking oil for some select dishes. It's completely odorless and tasteless.

Superior Oil for Cooking

Coconut oil is the ideal cooking oil. Because it is 92% saturated, coconut oil is very stable and incredibly resistant to oxidation and free radical formation. It won't get rancid longer than any other cooking oil.

Folks, it's amazing what a simple oil-change can do for your health. For your sake, make the move to coconut cooking oil. And make it your last oil-change. You won't regret it! ;-)
