Coconut oil is a food that is widely advertised as a health food, but according to a nutritionist, there seems to be little data supporting the health benefits as written as coconut oil propaganda. Alice Liechtenstein, who is also a professor of nutrition science at Tufts University and vice chairman of the US government's meal guidelines advisory committee, also told The New York Times "Most of the data to support the hype of coconut oil There is no comment .

Although coconut oil is not really poisonous, according to the American Heart Association data , it is said that more than 80% of the fat content in coconut oil is saturated fatty acid . This is a much higher proportion than butter (63%), beef (50%), pork (39%). In addition, taking more saturated fatty acids is said to increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Donald Hendzlad, a medical director of the Healthy Living Program promoted by the Mayo Clinic, says, "There is a break between what people generally believe and actual data" It is something that something that is said to be "is" actually has a negative effect on the body. Mr. Henslad recommends the use of olive oil and avocado oil containing a lot of unsaturated fatty acids instead of coconut oil, canola oil containing a lot of polyunsaturated fatty acids , etc.

The American Heart Association, whose use of coconut oil is deprecated, recommends not to eat more than 6% of saturated fatty acids of total calories ingested by adults per day. In addition, the American Heart Association has already reported at the Advisory Committee on Food Guidelines "There is no countervailing effect as advertised in coconut oil", and on the contrary, LDL cholesterol, which causes cardiovascular disease But there is a possibility of increasing it.

The American Heart Association warns of the danger of saturated fatty acids, but reducing the saturated fatty acid from the diet does not necessarily reduce the risk of heart disease . Because people 's eating habits are filled with sugar, flour, etc.

Also, since fat is an important thing that helps the body to absorb nutrition from foods, it is also a problem to not take any food, so it is likely that "keeping the proper intake" is important.
