Don't think so using coconut oil for 37 years. No side effects.

Personal observation:

While Indians of centuries ago worked hard and metabolized coconut oil, tod ...

Based on studies done by many Indian cardiologists I know, coconut oil is bad in the modern diet with all the other foods people eat. In the old days people in South India did not eat pizza and softdrinks by the liter, along with KFC and lots of meat.

Very interesting write up, but it does raise a lot of questions. The study appears to be subjective or in abstract. In India, a lot many southern coastal States have a coconut tree as an essential part of habitation. The people there eat coconut, prepare their food in coconut oil, and put coconut milk or powder to various staple edible uses. We would find the people of those States to be very healthy and comparatively sickness free. So the proposition can't be generalized.

Taken in moderation any food is healthy without side effects.
coconut oil taken orally or applied is healthy used properly.

Weight loss and eating...I feel food is to be cherished to nourish, eating something like it's a punishment diet gets the hormones crazy , eating the things u like in moderation with regular exercise is what is going to help us.
