Kokosolja — morgondagens medicin

Studier påvisade, att kokosolja och allt mättat fett var de främsta orsakerna till hjärt–kärlsjukdomar på grund av att de höjde kolesterolnivån i blodet. Tillrättalagda vetenskapliga undersökningar har använts för att övertyga allmänheten om hur ohälsosamma de mättade fetter är. Inga egentliga tester gjordes på den naturliga kokosoljan utan endast på härdat fett. Alla härdade oljor oavsett om de är mättade eller omättade höjer faktiskt kolesterolnivån.

A New Look at Coconut Oil

Coconut oil has a unique role in the diet as an important physiologically functional food. The health and nutritional benefits that can be derived from consuming coconut oil have been recognized in many parts of the world for centuries. Although the advantage of regular consumption of coconut oil has been underappreciated by the consumer and producer alike for the recent two or three decades, its unique benefits should be compelling for the health minded consumer of today. A review of the diet/heart disease literature relevant to coconut oil clearly indicates that coconut oil is at worst neutral with respect to atherogenicity of fats and oils and, in fact, is likely to be a beneficial oil for prevention and treatment of some heart disease. Additionally, coconut oil provides a source of antimicrobial lipid for individuals with compromised immune systems and is a nonpromoting fat with respect to chemical carcinogenesis.

I've heard that creatine is bad for your heart. Is this true and what are the effects of creatine?

Creatine is also touted as a supplement that increases muscle strength and bulk. This bulking effect, if it exists, comes from increased binding of water attached to creatine molecules in the muscle cells. Strength gains, if they occur, are more likely due to facilitation of more rapid recovery from bouts of vigorous weight training, thereby allowing the athlete to produce more work which does improve strength over time. Creatine is relatively free of significant side effects. Anecdotal reports attribute gastrointestinal side effects, like diarrhea, abdominal cramping, bloating, decreased appetite to it. There have also been reports of increased incidence of muscle cramping, muscle strains and tendon injuries in creatine users, but these reports are by no means confirmed. There is no good evidence that creatine use causes kidney, liver or cardiac (heart) problems, although those concerns have been expressed by many people based on anecdotal reports.
