I usually cook my veggies in coconut oil. So i guess i am ok. I cured myself of cancer and arthritis naturally 41 years ago. I have not been to a doctor since, or taken any medicine. No health problems in 41 years.
agree! the complication comes when people try to isolate one thing and over-consume it as a supplement (bullet proof drink, omega-3 oil capsules).....out of context from where it was discovered as beneficial. Just eat the whole foods - that's my style.
It’s not complicated. It’s simple if you know how we were created to it as in ancient times. It’s just different then what we’ve become used to. So it seems complicated bc you’ve gotten so far from what was available in ancient times and only eating that
It wasn't complicated until there was big money to be made by bastardizing good food items with fillers and taste bud frauds. Before the big food industry came along, you ate what came from the farm. If you do so again (one ingredient whole foods) your complaint will be nullified.
When my son has the flu I put a spoonful of coconut oil in a cup of tea then when he goes to sleep and gets up in the morning. The fever and the flu is gone. This beats out shelling out money for Tamiflu.

Why would you test your cholesterol when you eat real food we are supposed to eat as humans? I think we went overboard with tests, it will only pay for your doctors next fancy cruise trip.
Food isn’t complicated, just eat as close to your actual ancestors as you can. Where I grew up I knew no one who put coconut oil in coffee.

So many commenters seem to be missing that this information is specific to having the strongest immune system during this pandemic era, or when dealing with autoimmune disease. Just add some short chain fatty acids to balance long chain fatty acids and turn off the inflammatory response. I don’t think this is complicated. Just have veggies with your coconut oil!
In state of Kerala, India people are mainly vegetarians and they cook there dish with coconut oil traditionally. And they look so healthyer then other parts of India. No wonder your recherch and findings are a eye opener for us. Thank you Dr. Mindy
People in Kerala are not vegetarians; mainly have fish and meat in their diet. Coconut oil is used for cooking, but not a lot traditionally. When people started overeating and use everything way more than what they should, lifestyle diseases started robbing their health.
The info is contradicting itself. The medium chain (70%) will reduce inflammation, yet the long chain (30%) will increase inflammation. So does it work like math where you will end up 40% of benefits in reduction of inflammation? 😀.
Great video Dr Mindy 👍. (I never scoop coconut or any other oil in my coffee. 🤮. Just black coffee for me. I consume smaller amounts of coconut oil, but always ensure it is “not” refined. With veggies...yes)
Super Aniya actually your only partly right. It has been around forever but they also used to eat way more veggies than people do now days. So your wrong about the dark side. Don’t eat it without veggies. Simple enough
Aniya here they over do by going straight up Coconut oil and over do it. :) Concept of balance has to be taught unlike we see those balance concepts as we are growing up.
You can consume coconut oil with Desi Ghee(from the Desi cow).This Ghee is made up of SCFA's(Butyric Acid).It's a great detoxifier and improves colon health.
I eat for breakfast coconut oil with my gluten free oats.. flux and pumpkin seeds and berries. .. is that to much fat .? But I don't eat lunch just a meal in the evening x
Here in the Philippines we are on a trial for virgin coconut oil as a cure for covid 19. Being a tropical country we rely so much on coconut as food,as cure, and cosmetic products. Moderate consumptions of it would be beneficial I guess.
My son started having grandmal seizures after head injury at age 5. Eventually we found MCT oil (Nutiva brand) and since his seizures stopped. He is 12 yrs old and been sf over 4 yrs now. He still taking high dosage of MCT oil (6-8 tbsp daily).
I use this in my coffee (Larch fiber) Digestive Health The longest recognized use of Larch Arabinogalactan is probably as a source of dietary fiber. It has been shown to increase the production of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA's), principally butyrate and proprionate. These special fatty acids are critically important for the health of the colon.
This will be my last nutrition video viewing. After 18 mths of immersion with every "expert" out there, and a myriad diet recommendations, I'm overwhelmed and confused. So I'm just going to live by my simple rules, eat nothing but fresh, organic, whole food vegetables and pastured meats indigenous to my european heritage. And Fasting. It's the only thing that makes sense when looking at the history of food consumption for centuries. Parsing every molecule of food and supplements you put in your body to fix this or prevent that is just not worth it.
Pete OBoyle you are fortunate you were in a fasted state when your appendix burst! An empty gut is best for surgery, your immune system is higher and you’re in ketosis so you’ll heal faster! Fasting didn’t cause the rupture, it was inevitable. Continue shorter, intermittent type fasts till your body is healed completely. Best to you on your journey ❤️
Wow, you make everything so understandable and explain very well, i appreciate this information. Was always on the fence about coconut oil. Hear the excellent benefits but somewhat leary
Dr. Pelz, Many years back I learned from a holistic doctor how healthy flaxseeds can be and her advice was to take 2 teespoons every morning (roughly ground up in your spice grinder machine). If you grind them freshly before ingesting, you get the most healthy components out of the seeds: High Omega-3 fats and fiber. So I do this religiously, sometimes I mix them into a smoothie, on a small bowl of berries and cream or just spoon them up & rinse them down with water. I then proceed to make my Bullet-Proof Coffee which I’m addicted to 😋 with 2 small Tsp of Coconut Oil, 1 Tbsp of Butter and 7 different spices (cinnamon, tumeric, pepper, ginger, cayenne pepper, cardamom & pink himalayan salt) I don‘t know exactly if it‘s the mixture of all these things together or the fact that I usually eat lots of veggies, protein and other healthy fats daily, but I feel great. Lost over 40 Kilos. Haven‘t been sick (knock wood) in over 4 years, more or less since I‘ve started Keto and this morning routine. Like you said in the video, it‘s important to balance out the long chain fatty acids with short chain fatty acids & enough prebiotic fiber! Flaxseeds have this fiber and they‘re cheap. The dark brown flaxseeds are the most healthy 🤓 Just thought I‘d send this info for you and your fans. Oh yeah, Hemp Seeds/Oil and Chia seeds are also really good to incorporate regularly.
With MCT Oil, my understanding is that C8 & C10 is ok, but nothing higher. You need to check the label of MCT brand as to which Carbons are in, as some do have the C12, at least in Oz they do, especially supermarket brands. Think Dr Ekberg does a video on why.....something to do with it being able to bypassing the liver and being immediately available as a fuel source, if under 10. Not sure if that marries to what is being said here, but I use it, along with organic butter in a bulletproof coffee, now and again, depending on my fasting goals and have almost no inflammation in my joints. I also use a little for salad dressings sometimes, usually with garlic, somI guess that fits. Actually I like to do raw garlic with lots of stuff.
...🌻🎃🍂excellent information about consuming greens with coconut oil; been consuming my version of Bullet Proof coffee since 2016, 2 times/day; 1 tsp coffee, 1 tbsp each Butter, EVCO, and 35% Cream, 2 x per day; however, when less active during 🥶Winter months and depends on the day, I may adjust my afternoon BF Coffee serving to 1 tsp Coffee, 1 tbsp 35% Cream and 1/2 tbsp each of Butter and EVCO; that said, some people really overdue consuming coconut oil having way more than 2 tbsp per day and in addition, may not be eating enough greens in their diet or exercising enough; and it goes hand-in-hand, too much of a good/bad thing could work against your health; so far my immunes are strong due to a healthy diet, intermittent fasting and exercise.

Short chain fatty acids are in grass fed butter. Plants are not directly short chain fatty acids, but they only create short chain fatty acids IF YOU HAVE the right gut bacteria types to convert the fiber to short chain fatty acids. If you have a problem with your gut bacteria you’ll have a problem converting fiber to SCFAs. I personally use grass fed goat butter for direct short chain fatty acids and CLA. - Direct meaning I don’t need to reply on gut bacteria trying to convert plant fiber to SCFAs. I also use wild fish fat/fish oil. Those are my fave fats. And I use MCT coconut oil on my skin.
I was listening to anther video where a Romanian dr said that study have been done on coconut oil to be taken with balanced meal three times a day and will remove the stuborn fat. Also we should always have protein in our meals so the body burns fat and no muscle. I never knew that. Hope this helps. Victoria
I have hashimoto and doing the carnivore lifestyle for close to 2 months so when I cook my beef I'm going to sear it in coconut oil and onions and garlic if I understand you correctly. I'm not a coffee drinker as it too bitter with no sweetening. Love the brewing smell but hate the taste go figure lolol thanks so much for the info. Since covid I'm getting into researching and I proving my poor health from decades of bad eating habits. Last diabetic check was 12 A1c so my change was long overdue. Ty all that I've been learning from
This is totally helpful I have been using this coconut oil in my coffee and wondering why my inflammatory tests are high. Thank you. I started automatically cutting it way back and using ghee instead-grass fed.
I'm not overweight, I have been following this for 6 months. This MCT oil immune system thing has thrown me off, and I am frustrated. When I think I got it, something else gets thrown in.... Done
Thank you I grew up on coconut oil but I was wondering what was going wrong when I had it with my bullet coffee... on a ketosis diet...instead of losing weight I gained and my body seemed to be inflamed.... thanks now I will use it with vegetable instead now I know 🙂
South Indians for example start most staple dishes with coconut oil, garlic, ginger and onions. No indigenous cultures ever puts coconut oil into coffee. It’s unnatural! I feel there is much value in following age old practices for good health rather following fads like putting coconut oil into your coffee!!!
I am 72 years of age. I have been using home made coconut oil. If hiwever, you are condemning coconut oil . What would you say about conola, nazola ,wesson and all the other poisonous oils on the shelves in the supermarket?
Won't be drinking my morning coffee that has a little butter and virgin coconut oil with vegetables, lol. I do lightly stir fry my vegetables in coconut and or olive oil.
I could care less about my cholesterol. Feel great put coconut oil and gee tea spoon of Raul garlic and honey. I am never sick! I’ve only had 3 physicals in my life I attribute this to never going to a doctor. O also Iam not on any meds Iam 60yrs old the best way to stay healthy stay a way from doctors unless it dr berry. Or dr berg
So having coconut oil in my adaptogenic mushroom tea is not enough. I need to have vegetables at the same time? But MCT oil in my tea does not offer the same risk?
Did you say eat potatoes with coconut oil? What about inflammatory lectins and the high insulin spike which is not good? It will increase the size of the fat cells.
One thing I cannot understand with doctors u all confuse people U all study medicine. One doctor will tell u coconut oil is good a next Doctor will its not good. What is wrong with u all

↖️ Love this content so thank you for sharing! We’ve lost 100lbs plus between us doing keto and fasting so this information is great especially of Covid etc 💕
How much of these SCFA foods should I be eating. I have MCT in my coffee at least once a day. I don’t want to spike my Insulin, so I would generally avoid starchy foods (lentils and potatoes). I also don’t fancy eating garlic and asparagus everyday. Could I get away with just having a SCFA food once a week? Would this be enough to negate the effect of LCFA?
Dr Mindy just singed up to your platform and I’m really impressed with the information you share .. Priceless!! Everything you say just makes complete sense!
I just wish I did not have to listen to 10 minutes of fluff before getting to the real message. Life is too short Doc. When your explanation becomes too long even you get confused and go all over the place with the story. Imagine how you frustrate your viewers. Less is more Doc. Thank you.
Feel free to fast forward to what you want to hear but please allow others to listen to her supporting documentation that others may need to learn from. Thank you
I had.only positive effects with coconut oil. I have even resolved 15 diagnoses While using this. Modaration is key. My immunity has improved. I only use it to coke warm meals, i use olive oil for raw foods. I wok all the time my veggies. Sometimes steaming.

I have noticed that my cholesterol is higher with coconut oil ... I did take MCT over my last 24 hr fast, but I think I'm going to just skip it. 🙂
I appreciate and say thank you again I'm going to share that with so many people including my children and God bless you gain 💋❤️🙏😍😍💕💕✝️✝️🤗👏💐🙏
I was listening to anther video where a Romanian dr said that study have been done on coconut oil to be taken with balanced meal three times a day and will remove the stuborn fat.
Also we should always have protein in our meals so the body burns fat and no muscle.
I never knew that.
Hope this helps.

Dr. Pity how do you feel about fractionated (liquid) coconut oil. Removes most long chain fatty acids and leaves mid and short chain.
That long chain fatty acids are known as Cocobutter Substitute. Or as good as eating chocolate.
I have hashimoto and doing the carnivore lifestyle for close to 2 months so when I cook my beef I'm going to sear it in coconut oil and onions and garlic if I understand you correctly. I'm not a coffee drinker as it too bitter with no sweetening. Love the brewing smell but hate the taste go figure lolol thanks so much for the info. Since covid I'm getting into researching and I proving my poor health from decades of bad eating habits. Last diabetic check was 12 A1c so my change was long overdue. Ty all that I've been learning from
So if we purchase and consume specifically C8 oil, are we avoiding all the LCFA and don’t need to be concerned about the MCFA content?
eating LC/Keto is anti-inflammatory so wouldn't that negate the inflammatory effects of coconut oil?
Keto caused inflammation with me. Won't try again.
This is totally helpful I have been using this coconut oil in my coffee and wondering why my inflammatory tests are high. Thank you. I started automatically cutting it way back and using ghee instead-grass fed.
🙌
I'm not overweight, I have been following this for 6 months. This MCT oil immune system thing has thrown me off, and I am frustrated. When I think I got it, something else gets thrown in.... Done
There's no oil better than coconut oil
I am using I am feeling better even though I have a immune issue.
There is no dark side
Thank you I grew up on coconut oil but I was wondering what was going wrong when I had it with my bullet coffee... on a ketosis diet...instead of losing weight I gained and my body seemed to be inflamed.... thanks now I will use it with vegetable instead now I know 🙂
South Indians for example start most staple dishes with coconut oil, garlic, ginger and onions. No indigenous cultures ever puts coconut oil into coffee. It’s unnatural! I feel there is much value in following age old practices for good health rather following fads like putting coconut oil into your coffee!!!
Ryze coffee has the organic coffee, the MCT oil, and the mushrooms!
What about other coconut products Blume coconut milk and coconut butter/ cream?
I am 72 years of age. I have been using home made coconut oil. If hiwever, you are condemning coconut oil . What would you say about conola, nazola ,wesson and all the other poisonous oils on the shelves in the supermarket?
Won't be drinking my morning coffee that has a little butter and virgin coconut oil with vegetables, lol. I do lightly stir fry my vegetables in coconut and or olive oil.
Thanks. How about eating Coconut Smiles/Chips.
I could care less about my cholesterol. Feel great put coconut oil and gee tea spoon of Raul garlic and honey. I am never sick! I’ve only had 3 physicals in my life I attribute this to never going to a doctor. O also Iam not on any meds Iam 60yrs old the best way to stay healthy stay a way from doctors unless it dr berry. Or dr berg
yabut... we add mct oil to our coffe (with tumeric and ginger) not just plain 'ol coconut oil
Dr.Mindy Pelz i am so grateful for the info.I have learned so much in the group it's awesome. THANK THANK!!!
Glad you are learning lots!!!
Science rocks and so does Dr. Mindy!!!!!😁👍🏽❤️
She is advocating to big farma.
all she care is big bucks coming
from the pharmaceutical com.
So having coconut oil in my adaptogenic mushroom tea is not enough. I need to have vegetables at the same time? But MCT oil in my tea does not offer the same risk?
Did you say eat potatoes with coconut oil? What about inflammatory lectins and the high insulin spike which is not good? It will increase the size of the fat cells.
Coconut oil doesn't agree with me; I use macadamia nut oil instead.
Good thing to know about yourself! Glad you figured that out!
Ok I love this video ...but... potatoes help balance our blood sugar? Now I’m confused.... yes to onions & garlic...but spuds?
Isn't potato very high carb? Is it mixing fat with carb one of the ways to actually gain weight?
Thanks. Can you please do a video on organic coconut vs refined coconut oil
Thank you for always sharing these AMAZING videos Dr. Mindy! Fabulous!
One thing I cannot understand with doctors u all confuse people U all study medicine. One doctor will tell u coconut oil is good a next Doctor will its not good. What is wrong with u all
Make a video plz about mct oil
Noted!
Your waffling may make this video but it puts me off watching
I have been using lairds coconut coffee creamer and I like it but how does this add up in the equation?
Gut Zoomer Please I think :o)
I put coconut oil in my coffee with organic inulin and organic grass fed collagen, will the inulin throw off the negative effects of the coconut oil?🤔🤷🏻♀️
All of use are just contradicting one another. Lol study are bull.
If SCFA are so great would ghee be much better than coconut oil?
Just another reason not to give up your (raw) veggies.
I give my daughter mct oil daily for seizures....are you telling me I am causing her inflamation...she takes a tbsp of mct & cbd extract morning and prior to bed
Mct oil should be okay. Listen again at minute 8:35-8:45
Coconut oil is life, is cure, is the best food after breastmilk.
Hi MINDY AND CO!
wondering about coconut milk? I don't do coconut oil...my guts went into spasms dealing with mct oil. But I have unsweetened coconut milk in my coffee during my fasting hours.
Does it have the long chain issue too? thank you
@@DrMindyPelz but I'm wo during and asking about the long chain triglyceride content in milk rather than oil...or is it the same?
Sorry Dr I love you but didn’t understand well what you are trying to say 😢
But hey - there aren’t hardly any fat in veggies! 🧐🤨 ... or ??
What about oxalates in vegetables and inflammation?
↖️ Love this content so thank you for sharing! We’ve lost 100lbs plus between us doing keto and fasting so this information is great especially of Covid etc 💕
I live in the Uk.
Is there any way to join your community and also get a gut zoomed
How much of these SCFA foods should I be eating. I have MCT in my coffee at least once a day. I don’t want to spike my Insulin, so I would generally avoid starchy foods (lentils and potatoes). I also don’t fancy eating garlic and asparagus everyday. Could I get away with just having a SCFA food once a week? Would this be enough to negate the effect of LCFA?
Dr Mindy just singed up to your platform and I’m really impressed with the information you share ..
Priceless!!
Everything you say just makes complete sense!
I like to ingest coconut oil when i make popcorn. Other than that I only use coconut oil in lieu of body lotion.
Wow keralites cook everything with coconut oil
Am i the only one who notices Dr Mindy’s perfect hairline?
I just wish I did not have to listen to 10 minutes of fluff before getting to the real message. Life is too short Doc. When your explanation becomes too long even you get confused and go all over the place with the story. Imagine how you frustrate your viewers. Less is more Doc. Thank you.
Feel free to fast forward to what you want to hear but please allow others to listen to her supporting documentation that others may need to learn from. Thank you
I had.only positive effects with coconut oil. I have even resolved 15 diagnoses While using this. Modaration is key. My immunity has improved.
I only use it to coke warm meals, i use olive oil for raw foods. I wok all the time my veggies. Sometimes steaming.
You're doing great! 🤗
