Actually coconut fat (like palm oil) is one of the very worst fats out there. It cannot be metabolized by your body, and clogs up the arteries like nothing else. Countries that consume a lot of coconuts (in curries etc) have the highest incidence of heart disease in the world. Lots of studies on this.
