There is some evidence that coconut oil may help you lose weight.
In a study of 40 women with abdominal obesity, coconut oil reduced waist circumference compared to soybean oil while also improving several other health markers.
Another controlled study in 15 women found that virgin coconut oil reduced appetite compared to extra-virgin olive oil, when added to a mixed breakfast .
These benefits are possibly due to medium-chain fatty acids, which may potentially lead to a modest decrease in body weight.
However, scientists have pointed out that the evidence on medium-chain fatty acids cannot be applied to coconut oil.
Despite some promising evidence, research is still limited and some researchers question coconut oil’s weight loss benefits.
