Is saturated fat good for your heart health coconut?
You probably know that saturated fats are bad fats which can cause all kinds of heart disease among related. Did you know that oil coconut and humble to 92% saturated fat? So, why is that many supporters take coconut oil as a health supplement? Is this not contradictory?
Proponents of coconut oil virgin state that coconut oil helps improve skin condition, have more energy and even lose weight. Huh? consumption of saturated fat to lose weight? How is this possible?
These advocates hail the virgin coconut oil as one of the hottest new nutritional supplement greater impact on health and nutrition industry for years. This logic runs counter to Conventional Wisdom, right?
Fats saturated and there is plenty of it in coconut oil was the villain in heart disease. When hydrogenated vegetable fats (trans) was invented, as in margarine, is supposed to replace unhealthy saturated fats like butter and was thought to be a form of fat until it was discovered that in recent years that trans fats are more harmful to heart health than fat saturated.
It is with this thought that supporters of coconut fats is now arguing that all forms of saturated fat may be bad and coconut oil can be one of them. Dr. Bruce Fife, a naturopath and author based in the U.S. "The miracle of coconut oil, he said at a news conference in Singapore last month, "no saturates all act the same way. The fat in coconut oil is different from most other fats and has many beneficial health properties.
He added: "The acid Lauric (I coconut oil) boosts immunity, has antioxidant properties and is under consideration in reducing the viral load in HIV patients. You should also take into account the size of the fatty acid carbon chain. Most oils and fats we consume are long chains of amino fat. Coconut oil the richest source of fatty acid chain, which makes a very different behavior of long-chain versions.
"Medium-chain fatty acids in oil coconut stimulate the body's metabolism and promote weight loss. The immediate breakdown in the liver to produce energy and not stored as fat, "he added.
It is the consumption of coconut fat good or bad for health? It is not so controversial?
Listen to another expert Dr Annie Leong, deputy director of the department of nutrition in health promotion table. "There is enough evidence to prove that saturated fat medium chain can reduce the risk of heart disease."
Nutritionist Anna Jacob said, "Kerala is the capital of coconut in India and also has the highest rate of heart disease. Although it is possible to affirm that Indians are genetically predisposed to heart disease, but a diet rich in saturated fats, which could increase the risk. "
My question is that since Indians are more prone to heart disease, high rates of heart disease should be distributed evenly throughout India, not only in Kerala, do not you think? Therefore, I am always a bit skeptical.
So who is right and who is wrong? Also What is coconut oil saturated fat good or bad for your heart health? Well, the jury still exist as far as I'm concerned. To my First, make a conscious effort to avoid consuming coconut oil too often until the coconut debate is more conclusive empirical evidence that coconut oil is good for heart health.

Singapore is increasingly stressful for the work and life?
It seems that most foreigners working in Singapore and the cost of living Singapore, for example, increasing public transport, education, housing, stress and pressure level in Singapore is rising too, so that many high blood pressure or heart disease early. What is your opinion of this?
I used to work in SG .. (Almost 6 years) – Public transport is far from being expensive (although prices tomorrow will increase by 50%) – same goes for education (public schools only) – The rental price is quite reasonable (not cheap, but reasonable, 1500-1800 SGD per month for the condo 3 bedrooms) – Pressure of work? Maybe yes .. very good opportunity to work long hours – income tax is very low (5% or less) – Food prices are very low ($ 3.4 for a food foodcourt standard) – Prize car is * very * expensive – buying a property is * very * expensive (small cage bird will cost SGD min 200k) bottom two are the main reasons for the left SG.
