I hope it goes without saying that you should be getting blood work done when you're shoveling that much saturated fat into your body. In my case shoveling saturated fat in the form of coconut oil into my mouth gave me outstanding blood work. It was exactly what my body needed. A huge increase in HDL (good cholesterol), a huge drop on LDL (bad cholesterol), and a huge drop in triglycerides.
I am hooked on coconut oil just for the outstanding blood work. Statins did nothing for my cholesterol.
