http://foods4healing.com/ Coconut and coconut oils as excellent food sources have finally triumphed over decades of (purposeful?) misinformation and "scare tactics". Without getting into the perhaps unfortunate politics of it all, suffice to say that large companies with deep pockets used their influences to quash knowledge of coconut's benefits in favor of promoting their "own" preferred oils. Huge marketing campaigns in the late 1950's into the 1960's funded by the soy bean and corn industries, and supported by the American Heart Association, took aim at changing the typical American Diet. One such change called on Americans to substitute naturally occurring saturated fats for polyunsaturated and laboratory produced trans fats. These are much cheaper to produce. Years of propaganda against all saturated fats ensued. And look at what has happened since. Worldwide heart disease is on the increase and obesity, linked to this "new" American diet is a major problem. (Watch Coconut Video) It is now becoming apparent that not all saturated fats are created equal. In fact, we now know that the fat in coconut oil is unique. Because it is largely made up of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), coconut oil is different from most all other fats. Coconut oil has been described as "the healthiest oil on earth" and its extensively researched health benefits are numerous. MCTs are now being tauted as an amazing compound to help prevent and even reverse the symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias!
