Partially hydrogenated oils are very bad for you and are banned in some European countries; they contribute more than saturated fats to Heart disease.

Coconut oil has some health properties; the lauric acid contributes to heart health.

Pick fresh unsaturated fats instead of animal fat or partially hydrogenated oils. Coconut oils and avocado oils are two vegetable based saturated fats that are good for you.

There is a lot of evidence that excessive saturated fat contributes to heart disease and cancer.
