I have read this thread with some interest. The idea that coconut oil can help with weight loss is appealling. The arguments put forward here, and the anecdotes, all sound very positive and believable.
The only thing that bothers me is why this isn't better known? And coconut oil isn't the only lauric acid rich vegetable oil. Have any of the others shown similar effects?
As some others have asked, are there any actual studies from proper journals with numbers on this?
