saturated fat-packed coconut milk: the new diet food

I've had a hunch since I was 18 that eating fat actually helped me maintain a healthy weight. I basically stopped trusting what the media said at that age when I realized that eating fats was actually really satisfying and my body thanked me after eating them.

So I indulge on fat-filled coconut milk quite often. Since I crave it so much, I thought I'd look up its nutritional value on the internet. Since modern science hasn't been studying coconut milk like it has been studying tumeric, the media still hasn't informed us of all the healthy qualities of coconut milk. But I'm not waiting for the newspapers to begin pumping this food before I start eating it. I found a bit of less "official" info on internet. So, according to this article while coconut milk has as much fat as cow's whole milk, unlike whole milk, coconut milk helps you lose weight! Ha! I chug coconut milk all the time. More reasons to drink coconut milk:

• Promotes loss of excess weight by increasing metabolic rate.

• Is utilized by the body to produce energy in preference to being stored as body fat like other dietary fats.

• Helps prevent obesity and overweight problems.

You see you shouldn't trust the media with their myths and stupid repetitious ideas that fat is soo unhealthy? Now that I've said that if you eat lots of flour, sugar and other processed foods, or eat too much in general, coconut milk might not be the solution. Because there is no panacea for weight loss beyond exercising and a healthy diet. You can't just take a pill and become healthy and thin.

I would drink coconut milk daily, but I feel ethically it's maybe not the best to drink sooo much of it, since it has to be shipped to Chile from Thailand.

I have thought of making my own since they often sell Panamanian coconuts in the street here.
