"The idea that a low fat is healthy to be one of the biggest nutrition lies there ever was."
It seems to me that view was discarded long ago and appropriately replaced with the 'right fats' theory for healthier lipid levels.
Holistic or not, the preoccupation with 'refining of oils' is misplaced.
From the article I posted:
Quote:
Before even comparing the nutritional benefits, some argue that coconut oil is better than MCT fat because it’s natural.
In reality, no oils we eat are natural.
About the closest natural foods to them are something like an avocado (which is not a hard fat) and the oil in fish (but that’s only in minuscule quantities relative to the rest of its meat).
Contrary to what we all wish was true, dousing your salad with olive oil is not natural. In the hunter-gatherer days, having that experience would be impossible.
It’s said that coconut oil is Paleo friendly. Technically though, it’s not something early humans ate since they didn’t have the capabilities to make it.
