"The medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) in coconut oil can increase how many calories you burn compared to the same amount of calories from longer chain fats (4Trusted Source).
One study found that 15-30 grams of MCTs per day increased 24 hour energy expenditure by 5%, totalling about 120 calories per day (5Trusted Source)."
Cholesterol is the main lipid. It is made up of different parts such as:
LDL cholesterol, or “bad” cholesterol, is the main lipid that causes damaging buildup and blockage in your arteries.
HDL cholesterol is actually a “good” type of cholesterol that helps to prevent cholesterol from building up in your arteries.
Triglyceride is another lipid that may increase your risk for heart disease.

The added bonus of having them cut down a tropical forest to grow a coconut plantation. Good choice?

I think there's a lot more sub tropical and tropical forest destruction for palm oil that's a huge staple in the food industry -than coconut oil There's already a large number of coconut plantations everywhere from Puerto Rico to the Philippines.
From a virgin coconut.
