I'm interested in purchasing coconut oil to cook with and did a search on the internet to learn more about its nutritional qualities. Below is a link to an article that came up with Ray Peat, a nutritionist who advocates using coconut oil to boost metabolism and treat hypothyroidism. He says that the keys to boosting metabolism are less aerobic exercise, more dietary protein plus the addition of coconut oil. What was interesting, however, is that he claims muscle meats of both meat and fish suppress thyroid function. (He specifically states that an all meat diet suppresses thyroid function.) Instead, he lists the following as high quality proteins that will promote thyroid function: milk, cheese, eggs, seafood and potatoes. Any thoughts on whether or not meats/fish would suppress thyroid function? Also, any of you paleos use coconut oil and if so, did you notice any boost to your metabolism?
