Organic Coconut Oil Benefits

Not All Fats Make You Fat

Often we see words like 'fats' & 'oils' used. However, a fat is usually considered solid at room temperature, when oils are liquid. The most important thing is the structure of the fats and oils. The awesome benefits of organic virgin coconut oil are mainly due to it's chemical structure.

Organic virgin coconut oil contain smaller medium-chain triglycerides (MCT's) than other fats. They are digested so much faster that regular fats that the body uses them as energy rather than storing them as fat. MCT's are used to produce energy similar to carbohydrates and are therefore not circulated in the blood like most other fats. For that reason, they do not supply fat to fat cells to contribute to weight gain. So, effectively, when using organic virgin coconut oil in your cooking, you can eat the same types of foods as you normally do, yet consumer way fewer calories.

Seems great and I can't wait to try it.
