Hydrogenated coconut oil is the stuff they say you should avoid (in fact, you should avoid all hydrogenated oils).

So like with any oil, use the unrefined stuff. And personally, I wouldn't go overboard with it or any food.

What Dr. Atkins recommends to use when you are going to fry is coconut oil, and peanut oil, any other oil burns easily and it becomes dangerous for our heart and arteries.

And recent studies have hinted it may up our metabolism a little too ^_^ I'm assuming they mean the unrefined version of course.
