Top model Miranda Kerr once said her beauty secret is a coconut oil diet. But not all experts confirm these tips, some particularly caution that coconut oil can be dangerous if taken excessively.
One expert who doubts the benefits of the coconut oil diet is Keith Ayoob, a nutritionist from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. He said drinking coconut oil could be challenging to accept weight loss sensibly. According to him, 1 tablespoon of coconut oil contains 117 calories. Miranda Kerr, a model, says she regularly consumes coconut oil 3-4 tablespoons/day, adding 468 calories out of the staple foods she eats daily.
“I prefer consuming 1 ounce of dark chocolate with that many calories. Gynecology more beneficial nutrients from palm oil, and the result will be more satisfying,” said Ayoob. Not only that, but coconut oil is also one source of saturated fat, so it is not advisable to drink too many in number. Too much saturated fat will increase the Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL), also known as bad cholesterol.
This opinion is the appeal of the WHO world health organization, so palm oil is consumed in excess. According to WHO, increased levels of bad cholesterol in the blood caused by drinking too much coconut oil can increase the risk of coronary heart disease.
Coconut oil diet to maintain the beauty once popularized by the beautiful model Miranda Kerr. In an interview with Cosmopolitan Magazine, Kerr said that coconut oil makes her stay slim and smooth skin, and her hair is always shiny.
“I did it since 14, and I could not pass up a day without drinking coconut oil. I consume 3-4 tablespoons/day either as a mixed salad, other dishes as well as in steeping green tea,” said Kerr
