    Coconut oil is high in medium-chain fatty acids and supposed to be one of the healthiest oils there is.

    With most natural foods, portion control is everything...

    I mostly use olive and canola too, ghee for Indian cooking and butter for baking (which I do pretty rarely), but I'm interested in exploring more coconut oil in baking.

    Really you're supposed to use grapeseed oil for cooking, and olive oil only to finish a dish... but I just buy a decent inexpensive olive oil (what's in my pantry now is Gaea Laconia) and use it for both.
