Cooking with Coconut Oil Alone
Can Lose You Over
30 Extra Pounds a Year


Cooking with coconut oil (CNO) can help you shed off up to almost 40 unwanted pounds each year. No tricks. No gimmicks. Using coconut cooking oil brings light to the phrase, Eat Fat To Lose Fat.

The table below shows you the constitution of common dietary fats and oils in relation to each other:




Composition of Dietary Oils and Fats

FAT OR OILPERCENT OF SATURATED FATSPERCENT OF MONOUNSATURATED FATSPERCENT OF POLYUNSATURATED FATS

As you can see, CNO is almost entirely saturated. But you might ask. Isn't beef tallow and lard saturated fats as well, just like coconut oil? Pork and beef fat are common contributors to being overweight, right?

You see folks, CNO's fatty acids are mostly medium-chain (MCFA). Beef, pork and almost all other dietary fats including soybean, corn and the rest are mainly long-chain fatty acids (LCFA).

LCFAs travel in your circulatory system. As long as you eat enough to satisfy your energy requirements, LCFAs in your food will end up as fat in your cells. Hence, the extra weight.

MCFAs, on the other hand, do not travel your bloodstream. They are sent straight to your liver for the production of energy. Your body uses MCFAs to make fuel for metabolism rather than store it as body fat.

A study supervised in Canada's McGill University has this conclusion. If you change all the LCFA oils in your diet like soybean oil into MCFA oils such as coconut oil, you can lose up to 36 pounds of excess fat per year.

Note that all you got to do is have an oil change. No replacing diets. Same calorie consumption. Just make sure you're cooking with coconut oil. You can easily do that, right? So start now, OK.
