Health notes
Coconut oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily composed of saturated fats, which the FDA recommends limiting in the diet. While some studies suggest potential benefits of certain fatty acids in coconut oil, other research indicates it can raise LDL ('bad') cholesterol levels. JECFA has evaluated coconut oil and set an acceptable daily intake.
