The saturated fats in coconut oil have many medicinal properties: The reason coconut has been so criticized by those concerned with good health is that almost all of its fatty acids are saturated fats that people now link with high cholesterol levels and heart disease. However, this myth has been widely disproved and many studies have been done to disprove the idea that saturated fats clog the arteries and lead to heart problems. It has been discovered that the fatty acids in which coconut is so rich go straight to the liver from the digestive tract and are used there as a source of quick energy or transformed into compounds called ketone bodies, which can have a therapeutic effect on brain disorders such as epilepsy or Alzheimer's disease.
Coconut-based diets are among the healthiest in the world: While coconut is still considered a kind of exotic food in the United States, there are many cultures where coconut is a staple in their diets, the equivalent of wheat or corn in the US. And these cultures have thrived on this diet for many generations. The best example of this are the Tokelauans, a small population in the South Pacific, who consume a diet that is 60% coconut-based and practice a cuisine with one of the highest concentrations of saturated fat in the world. But even so, they are in good health and show no evidence of heart disease.
