Finally ...

1. Coconut oil is a healthy type of fat for cooking because its properties are very healthy. This saturated fat has a shorter molecular composition than most other saturated fats, making it a healthy saturated fat. Coconut oil has all kinds of healthy properties because of the lauric acid it contains, which mainly help against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition, lauric acid is important for the creation of enzymes and ketogenic bodies that are important for the functioning of your brain, heart and muscles.

1. Coconut oil can also be applied to the skin and the lauric acid it contains is one of the substances that can penetrate the deepest into the skin. It is also very popular for those with dry skin.

1. In addition, no association has been found between consumption of coconut oil and elevated cholesterol or cardiovascular disease, but more research needs to be done. As far as I am concerned, coconut oil can be used well as a basis for vegetarian dishes. Meat often contains a lot of saturated fats and you can also go for olive oil.

1. Personally, I keep preparing my dishes with olive oil, and when I make a Thai meal I use fresh coconut oil!
