Rebecca and Nutiva Coconut Oil in Your Health Living Magazine –
“Different oils have different smoking points. This is the temperature at which an oil starts to break down into glycerol and free fatty acids. Some fats in oils are more stable than others, which is the case with coconut oil, so it is better to cook with these. Unstable oils will oxidise and oxidation causes the release of free radicals, which are responsible for inflammation and ageing in the body.”
