Coconut oil has found its way into German kitchens more and more often in recent years, although its alleged health-promoting effect is controversial. Scientists from the University of Bonn have now been able to show how it is metabolized in the liver. Your results could also have consequences for the treatment of certain diarrheal diseases. The results have appeared in the journal Molecular Metabolism.
Coconut oil differs from rapeseed or olive oil in the fatty acids it contains. Fatty acids consist of carbon atoms bonded to one another, usually 18 in number. In coconut oil, however, most of these chains are significantly shorter and contain only 8 to 12 carbon atoms. In the liver, these medium-chain fatty acids are partially converted into storage fats (triglycerides). How exactly this happens was previously largely unknown.
