Coconut and nuts in cooking health effects

What about using coconut in cooking ? Is that healthier than the oil? Or nuts paste as thickening agents

Hi, the coconut still is high in saturated fat, but it is associated with fiber so it improves gut health and it also has less absorption so it can be used in moderation but not for every day cooking. The same thing for nuts. It is advisable to have a total of 10 nuts every day whichever form you can take them in so if you’re putting more than that, then it’s not advisable.
