Bee,

What do you mean by coconut oil and butter " working together " ? To what

end are you referring to? Just curious...

Hi Anita. There are 2 pathways in the body by which fats of all

kinds are processed, called Omega 6 and Omega 3 Pathways (essential

fatty acids). Lauric acid, saturated fatty acid found chiefly in

mother's milk and coconut oil, and in smaller amounts in butter,

seems to improve the function of the omega-6 pathway. When lauric

acid is present in the diet, the long chain omega-6 fatty acids

accumulate in the tissues where they belong, even when consumption of

essential fatty acids is low.

Along the Omega 6 pathway butter also affects how the body processes

fats in that pathway. All of the fats work in unison along these 2

pathways. Here's Enig's very technical and complicated article

about these 2 pathways, called " Tripping Lightly Down the

Prostaglandin Pathways " - prostaglandins are fats:

Pasha,

Butter is fine. I prefer butter ghee though. Ayurvedic tradition holds it in

esteem for its healing capabilities. I mixed it with black sesame powder,

another ayurvedic superstar, to form a paste. This looks different, however it

tastes great.
