Most people were brought up thinking that "Extra Virgin Olive Oil" was super healthy.
And more recently Coconut Oil was able to overcome the "Saturated Fat is bad...". A little marketing allowed them to add "except for Coconut Oil".
Sometimes the proof came from tribes in foreign lands that had high amounts of certain oils and no heart problems. A simple google search will explain the other so called benefits.
Coconut oil was even prescribed by our nutritionist to be eat by the spoonful on a daily basis. Yes, a straight spoonful. That never sat right with me. Even if they claim it helps metabolism etc.
The guys over at Engine2Diet and Bill Clinton himself, are 100% anti ANY oils. Even Fish Oil. Kinda makes sense. Will I cut out oils? Probably not, will I eat a spoonful directly, not anymore. I will try and cook with veggies that have juices already in them (onions, peppers etc) and just use that instead of oil.
Here is a video of Bill Clinton and why he went healthy vegan and oil free.
And here is the "proof" that E2D gives: Marketing Junk Food: Don't Go Cuckoo Over Coconut Oil
Not sure what to believe. Based on his assessment, water would be bad for you.
