I think it is good that you are being cautious with not being excessive with coconut oil but hear me out!

The field of nutrition is in a strange situation at the moment. Old school nutritionists are really against saturated fats, but that is because they are basing their assumptions on research that was manipulated by the sugar industry in the 1960's. Here is a link to the article. It is written by the New York Times. It was discovered that the sugar industry manipulated research in order to downplay the negative health impact sugar has in our diet and blame it on fat. This manipulated research survived peer review by the scientific community and then the whole field of nutrition was built around the assumption that saturated fat was the real enemy.

The saddest part about this is that scientists and nutritionists are barely starting to question the sugar industries tainted research. Some scientists acknowledge that new research is starting to shed a new and more positive light on saturated fat but they acknowledge that the new body of research around saturated fats is still in its early stages. This is not enough for me to believe that I should eat an unlimited supply of coconut oil, but it makes me cautiously optimistic about it.
