I'm never a big fan of these 'fad' type things
for me your always better off eating a healthy diet
In this paper, we have highlighted that AD may also be caused by a deficiency in the supply chain of cholesterol, fats, and antioxidants to the brain. We have provided much evidence of the importance of these nutrients to brain function, and have shown that AD patients are deficient in cholesterol and fats in the cerebral spinal fluid. We suggest that a diet high in high-glycemic index carbohydrates, particularly fructose, and relatively low in fats and cholesterol, leads to a destructive process that begins with glycation damage to blood serum lipid supply as well as to proteins important to the metabolism of astrocytes. The impairment of astrocytes is accelerated by the excess energy requirements associated with increased cholesterol synthesis in the absence of a sufficient supply from the bloodstream. Neurons begin to suffer damage as well, once the astrocytes can no longer supply adequate amounts of cholesterol, fats and antioxidants.
Whilst we're on the subject of high fat/cholesterol foods, this study seems to suggest that high fat/cholesterol diets are preferable for brain health, and may provide protection against degenerative brain disease.
That's not a study.
It's a lit review. It's roughly on par with a Wikipedia article in terms of scientific evidence.
He doesn't want to listen. He's probably one of these people that believe cereal is good for you and that fat is bad for you, and has little idea of how metabolism works.
However he does have a point that for a clueless person who thinks eating x,y,z is good and then taking MCTs without understanding will result in improved health and fat loss is probably going to be disappointed.

Can you see the problem?
Not really no, or not until you turned the discussion into an argument with your rude, arrogant attitude and insults.
No-one here is gullible enough to believe coconut oil is a miracle cure for anything or a magic weightloss elixir, also no-one is claiming or pretending to be a scientific expert. All we were doing was discussing the possible benefits of VCO and sharing our uses of it.
You've shown yourself up to be totally ignorant on the subject of nutrition and dietry fats in particular, you're obviously indoctrinated into the low fat approach to diet and there will be no swaying you from it, why not just keep out of a thread that you obviously have no interest in. You just pop in with nothing remotely constructive and just attempt to belittle and berate.
