Are Coconuts and Coconut Milk Fattening When trying to lose weight, Should I stay away all together?!


Question: Pacific islanders and other populations that consume an abundance of coconut oil are amazingly free from degenerative diseases so common in the west including:
- heart disease
- high blood pressure
- atherosclerosis - stroke.
Lots of information about the amazing benefits of cocont fat contradict everything we've always heard about saturated fats. Weight loss requires fat in your diet. I looked under Dr. david williams coconut. I hope this helps

Coconut oil and avocado and other healthy fats can actually burn the bad fats, so it would be good to eat these foods. Report It

  • Nut milk is good for you!

    Coconuts and the Coconut Milk are both not only fattening, but they can lead to high cholerstrol, which is a health risk.
    You would be best to stay away from them altogether.

    Coconuts are high in fat, as are nuts, avacados and olives. Fats in these foods are better than fats derived from animal fats, such as from eating a big steak.

    That said, moderation is key. Don't overdo it and you'll be okay.
