The benefits of coconut oil:

Coconut oil is widely used in tropical countries like India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and the Philippines, which have a good production of coconut oil.

It can be used to cook at high temperatures and fry since it mainly contains medium-chain saturated fats that do not oxidize. Excellent as a raw condiment.

It is one of the richest sources of saturated fats, almost 90% of the fatty acids are saturated, but their chemical composition is very different from the saturated fats found in meat and dairy products.
