Coconut oil lowers cholesterol by promoting its conversion to pregnenolone, a molecule that is a precursor to many of the hormones our bodies need. Coconut can help restore normal thyroid function. When the thyroid does not function optimally, it can contribute to higher levels of bad cholesterol.
Consuming a total of about 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil per day can help the body convert cholesterol into a form that it can use, and prevent the build-up of plaque in the arteries. Coconut oil also contains lauric acid, a natural fat that improves blood coagulation and wards off heart disease.
