Question on coconut oil

[Guest guest]

I honestly develop severe brain fog when it comes to understanding the

" story of fats " . So far I know olive oil and flax oil and butter and

coconut oil are the most beneficial - coconut oil also being antifungal.

But can someone tell me if it's okay to, say, saute things in coconut oil -

that is, to heat it to higher temps?

Thanks - Penny

My understanding is cooking with Coconut oil is fine. I have done it many times

and was told it is ok.

The saturated fats, coconut oil included, can tolerate higher

temperatures than the unsaturated and polyunsaturated oils.
