No, seriously, I think coconut would be good for you if you
didn't overdo it. I've read
https://www.coconutsecret.com/coconuthealthsecrets2.html
that
it's very healthy.
Coconut oil is definitely healthier than most other kinds of
oils. What do you think, Meshak?

Ok, next question is:
Are they saying we should replace other oil to coconut oil?
You know we cannot afford too much calorie in our diet. Oil
contains a tons of it.
thank you:)

Vegetable oils like soybean, canola, corn, or olive oil are
better for you. I usually use olive oil or canola oil.

This is old news now, it seem. They are saying coconut oil far
better than anything else.
I have been using olive oil or avocado. I have to replace them
if it is better instead of taking them all.
they are saying it is extremely good to prevent old timers
disease.

[/quote]I don't know, really. Today they say one thing, and
tomorrow it's something else; but I think cottonseed oil is
really bad.
Some oils break down too under high heat. Olive oil is okay --
but you shouldn't fry things with it at high heat -- frying at
gentle temperatures is okay. The high heat breaks it into
unhealthy stuff.
I wouldn't worry about the calories if no one in your house is
gaining weight. People who eat a lot of greasy food often don't
eat enough fruits and vegetables -- and I think that's what's
bad there. Not enough vitamins and minerals -- and not enough
fiber.

I try to maintain the same weight. I am only 4'10", and I
cannot afford too much calorie. I don't need too much of
anything. I eat plenty of fruits and vegies.

[/quote]If you're getting the fruits and vegetables, I think
that's the main thing. Too many oils and fats of any kind
aren't good; and too much meat also isn't. And certainly too
much sugar isn't.
I was glad when the government finally came out and told people
that vitamin pills don't do much. They are next to worthless;
but people would eat potato chips and drink sodas and then think
they could stay healthy by popping a one-a-day vitamin pill.
Goodness, I was reading the other day how Chinese people are
starting to get fat. When they get better paying jobs, they
start buying junk like pizza and all the stuff that makes
Americans and the British so fat. The Chinese traditional diet
was very healthy. Mostly vegetables with a little meat, often
stir fried in a little oil and then served with rice.

Okinawan people lived long when they were poor, but they started
eat like western, they are getting fat and live short lives.
When they were poor, they could not afford meat and fish, their
main food was veggies and sweet potatoes. Meat was for special
occasions like twice a year. Now, they are eating meat every
day.
I think their short statues are because of their not so hearty
meal. They did not take enough calcium. They did not eat full.
But their poor food condition made them live long though. I
remember I was always hungry. But we did not complain, we just
accepted it.
Eating too much is not good thing.
I am Okinawan, BTW.

the government; but I think the government should have done a
better job of telling people not to eat so much because getting
obese isn't healthy. The government usually waits until people
are sick or dying before they do anything.

Japanese aren't that tall even if well fed. Ever notice that
when the Japanese Prime Ministers have their pictures taken with
Americans or Europeans, they are usually sitting down? For
some reason, they think it is a sign of being inferior or
something to be short! Isn't that silly?
Did you know that Japan has a law that tells employers they must
do their best to help their employees to stay fit? They don't
fine people for being overweight; but they will fine the
employers if they don't try to help. From workforce.com
http://www.workforce.com/articles/new-japanese-law-requires-employers-to-combat…
A new Japanese law requiring employers to combat obesity in the
workforce or face fines will not lead to punitive measures
against overweight employees in America, Japanese firms say.
The law that went into effect April 1 forces companies and
government, the two sources of health insurance in Japan, to
measure the body fat of employees between the ages of 40 and 74.
Employers may be required to pay more into the national health
care system if the waistlines of employees, their families and
retirees exceed the government�s limits of 33.5 inches for men
and 35.4 inches for women.
Unlike Japan, employers and government in the U.S. have been
leery to punish people into losing weight, preferring instead to
use financial incentives to reduce health risks, according to a
recent Watson Wyatt survey that said such incentives had
increased in recent years. Still, more employers are using
strong tactics to outlaw smoking, and a National Business Group
on Health survey of employees last year suggested they would
support penalties aimed at obese workers.
The fellow I don't understand is the North Korean President Kim
Jong-un. With all the people underfed if not still starving in
North Korea, he is quite fat. I'd be embarrassed to be that big
with all the poor people in that country.

It's hard for me to get used to. I'm used to seeing thin
Asians.
