Research on benefits of red palm oil
Red palm oil all started about a decade ago during the early 2000s, in what appears to be an independent search. Researchers from Monash University (Australia) and University of Uyoin (Nigeria) began to analyze the key components that make palm oil so unique and both came up with strikingly similar conclusions:
Red palm oil is one of the few fatty fruits in existence, it’s likely to hold a substantial place in the human diet and is the second most consumed vegetable oil in the world. It is different from other plant and animal oils in its fatty acid composition (50% saturated, 40% unsaturated, and 10% polyunsaturated) in that it does NOT promote atherosclerosis or arterial thrombosis.
Where coconut oil has around 90% MCFA’s (fat your body can easily burn for energy) palm oil only contains around 50% MCFA’s.

But in addition to MCFA’s, palm oil is also loaded with the following phytonutrients:
1.Carotenoids (alpha-,beta-,and gamma-carotenes)
2.Sterols (sitosterol, stigmasterol and campesterol)
3.Vitamin E (tocopherols and tocotrienols)
4.Water-soluble powerful antioxidants, phenolic acids and flavonoids
