Coconut Oil a Cure for Alzheimer's Disease?

Below is a link to a very interesting video clip for anyone who wants to remain healthy their entire lives.  Coconut oil has gotten a bad name because of the refined coconut oil product produced at very high temperatures that you hear about in fried foods, and also because it contains a large amount of saturated fat.  But coconut oil in its raw and uncooked state is very nutritious for you.  The naturally formed saturated fat in this oil is very healthy and the high lauric acid content has anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties.  Coconut oil can stand higher temperatures than most other unrefined oils and coconut milk is an excellent milk substitute for those sensitive to dairy. 

If you want to try coconut oil but don't like the strong coconut smell (like me), you can still get good quality pure coconut oil but just don't buy virgin or extra-virgin (although the virgin oil is considered the best for you).  It is great for cooking, baking, and adding to foods (like in the video).  So check this out!
