dc.description.abstractBackground: Coconut oil, or copra oil is obtained from the nut/kernel of matured coconuts garnered from the Cocosnucifera. Coconut oil is an edible oil derived from the kernels of harvested mature coconuts harvested from the coconut palm. In recent decades, this oil has risen to the status of a health food superstar in the health food industry. Celebrities are welcoming its use, nutritionists are promoting it, and patients are praising it for its many benefits. Purpose: This oil has been linked to a range of health advantages. These include improvements in skin care, hair care, stress management, losing weight & cholesterol level management, immune modulatory effects, cardiovascular applications, and, most recently, Alzheimer’s disease. However, for several years, coconut oil was demonised, and consumers were led to believe that it was harmful to their health because it would clog arteries and cause heart disease. The tide has shifted, and in recent years, increased awareness of the favourable health advantages of coconut oil has emerged. Conclusion: The usage of coconut oil, particularly crude coconut oil, is increasingly popular; however some individuals are still doubtful. This present review makes an attempt to provide a scientific assessment of the medicinal qualities of this oil.
