A member asked:
Coconut has saturated fats that are good for you,right? do those fats(and the good fats in butter,too)raise blood sugar levels like other sat fats?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: the good fats are needed to make the body function well Usually unless some major health stresses these types of fat do not convert to sugars
