Browsing: coconut oil

The main advice of nutritionists of the last 50 years is to replace lard and butter with vegetable fats. The reason is the absence of cholesterol in their composition, which is harmful to the health of the cardiovascular system. At the same time, traditionally, vegetable oil almost always meant sunflower oil.

There are many myths associated with eating coconut oil, from the fact that it is more “dietary” (due to its content of short-chain fatty acids) to the fact that its use does not affect cholesterol levels.
