I don't know. I know that there is a controversy about the benefits of
coconut oil vs the danger of it. There are lots of sites that extol its
virtues, and then there are those that claim that those sites are from
the people who benefit from the sale of those products. Meanwhile, I
have the advise of cardiac specialists who think it is bad and, as I
sad, had the "not coconut" in large capital letters to stress it. It's a
shame because I like coconut.
