Virgin coco oil great for sex and cholesterol

I highly doubt it but let's wait for full report. Excited to dive in and analyze the data. Hopefully, they'll publish it online and the paper is not behind a paywall.

Points that triggered alarms:
-n = 189
-no mention if healthy subjects or subjects with dyslipidemia were used
-unequal number of treatment and control
-just 4 months
-use of placebo instead of identifying which oil
-no change in BMI and weight
-a chemist as team leader

Still even if the study is true, I won't be advising use of VCO just yet.
