As u taking virgin coconut oil. So some study are there related to dis.
The 2016 study suggested that virgin coconut oil had a significant beneficial effect on blood coagulation, which could help prevent cardiovascular diseases.
Another 2017 study published in the Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine journal found that consuming of virgin coconut oil in young healthy adults increased the levels of HDL or good cholesterol.
