Because it is rich in saturated fats called “medium chain triglycerides,” coconut oil is particularly ketogenic, making it especially suitable for Fat Fasting. It also stimulates thermogenesis – in other words, it increases body temperature slightly, burning off extra calories. Too, medium chain triglycerides can be used directly by the muscles for fuel, making them a source of quick energy. All of this makes coconut oil valuable to us.
