The biggest lie about food.

Now from very early age we've all been taught that saturated fat and cholesterol is really bad for our hearts.

So in fact it's going to kill us, right? So when you eat lard, red meat, butter, it's going to clog your arteries. But actually, what is cholesterol? What's

saturated fat? It's very confusing. Are they the same? Are they different? I'm going to make this so simple for you.

First let's just cover cholesterol. What is it? It's a type of fat that your liver makes.

And the reason why your liver makes this type of fat is to make cell membranes and stuff around your cells.

It's to help make hormones.

It's to help make even Vitamin D. You can't make Vitamin D without cholesterol.

So now let's tackle saturated fat. Very simply, it's a

type of fat that will stay solid at room temperature versus another type of fat which

is liquid at room temperature and that's called unsaturated fat.

For example, if we take coconut oil, right?

And we compare that to lard.

Both of them are solid at room temperature. Both of them have saturated fat. And interestingly

enough, coconut oil has 87% saturated fat compared to lard, which only has 47, not even 50% of it is saturated fat.

Out of all the different types of saturated fat, the one that has the biggest so-called bad influence on your

cholesterol is something called moristic acid. Moristic acid has been studied and

found that it can increase your bad cholesterol.

Myristic acid by itself is very high in coconut oil,

but only 2% of the saturated fat in red meat

is this moristic acid.

So tell me what saturated fat is bad if it's in coconut oil.
