Coconut oil / MCT

Hello... im wondering if anyone here uses coconut oil in their cooking/food while on a keto diet.

been reading up about MCTs, and its said that coconut oil is a really good source of these good fats... however i did a search and found that 12g of the 14g fats in a tbs of coconut oil is saturated fat.

will this have more downfalls in long term if i replaced most of my evoo with coconut oil, cos of the saturared fat? (cos i remembered 3J's advice that cheese was a bad choice of fat even tho its 0 carb cos of the higher sat fat content) is evoo still the better choice of oil? =/ i really got a big question mark here cos there are many articles out there saying MCTs are better than olive oil in terms of weight loss...



Thank you!

EVOO and Extra Virgin Coconut Oil are much better than cheese as source of fats due to the MCT content and ability to help the leydig cell production within the testes which stimulates testosterone production.
