    Nope. Coconut oil is really high in saturated fat. It’s bad. The fact that it went through a phase where people were considering it a “healthy” fat had actual nutritionists raging.

      A little bit to thicken a Thai curry won’t do much harm though. Just don’t use it as your daily cooking fat.

      Fair enough! That’s really good to know. I’ll stick to using it externally for my skin in the winter, unless there’s better options out there and I’ve been misinformed about that too. Actually, I’m gonna go double check that right now
