A survey in Singapore found that coconut oil is not as healthy as everyone thought compared with other vegetable oils. This experiment found that coconut oil can increase the levels of low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol and total cholesterol.
Although high-density lipoprotein cholesterol is good cholesterol in the body, it is beneficial to stabilize cholesterol in the blood. However, after eating coconut oil, the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in the human body has also increased, which cannot offset each other.
In addition, some studies have found that coconut oil contains medium-chain fatty acids, which can help children prevent obesity and the risk of dental caries in vitro. But this is limited to in vitro experiments, and it doesn't really work for people. You should also pay attention to it. On the contrary, coconut oil has higher calories.
If people often eat coconut oil, it will be bad for blood lipid level. Moreover, coconut oil is high in calories, which is not conducive to people's weight control. People with chronic diseases should avoid eating coconut oil.
The edible oil we should really choose, according to our country's dietary guidelines, people are advised to eat vegetable oil. Compared with palm oil, coconut oil and lard, various vegetable oils have lower saturated fat content and higher unsaturated fatty acid content, which will not threaten cardiovascular health if eaten in moderation.
When eating daily, according to the recommended edible oil content standard in the pagoda of the latest edition of Dietary Guidelines for China Residents, the daily edible oil amount should be controlled within the range of 25g~30g. And everyone should pay attention to the fact that cooking oil can be changed every day, because cooking methods are different, such as frying, cold salad, frying and so on.
Although fried food is not recommended, if you want to eat fried food outside occasionally, you might as well do it yourself. At this time, peanut oil can be selected as the oil. Cooking can also be common edible oils such as corn oil, sunflower oil and soybean oil. If it is cold, you can choose olive oil. Each oil has different nutrients, so it can supplement a variety of nutrients when eaten, which is good for the body.
