Fat that Burns Fat?
COCONUT OIL contains the most concentrated natural source of medium chain fatty acids, MCFA, available.
Most fats in our foods, if not used immediately as an energy source are stored as fat tissue in our body, aka FAT. COCONUT OIL has a totally different effect on the body. The medium chain fatty acids in coconut oil are broken down and used predominantly for energy production…they produce energy NOT FAT!
Unlike other fats, they do not circulate in the bloodstream and are sent directly to the liver, where they are converted into energy like a carbohydrate, but unlike a carbohydrate in that it does not raise blood sugar levels.
Because MCFAs shift the body’s metabolism into a higher gear increasing the metabolic rate, coconut oil is a fat that can actually promote weight loss!
However like anything in excess it too can be converted to fat so use moderately.
The simplest and best way to replace LCFAs with MCFAs is to use COCONUT OIL in the preparation of your food.
