    In the eyes of scientists, whether coconut oil is a healthy super food has been questioned. The biggest reason is that the saturated fat content of coconut oil is 86% even higher than animal fats such as butter (31%), lard (39%). The reason why foods rich in saturated fat are not respected is because it increases the plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) concentration. LDL is called "bad cholesterol" because it increases the risk of cardiovascular disease.
