Harvard Prof Saying Coconut Oil Is ‘Pure Poison’ Does Not Go Down Smoothly With Indians

Coconut oil is the Sharma ji ka beta of oils. 

It can be consumed, put on hair, put on the body and it gives good results everytime and everywhere. 

So, when a Harvard professor claimed that it is as dangerous as ‘poison’, Indians who swear by the benefits of coconut oil were not pleased.

In a YouTube video titled kokosöl und andere Ernährungsirrtümer (which translates to coconut oil and other nutritional errors), Karin Michels- adjunct professor of epidemiology at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health- calls it ‘poison’ at least three times.

This video has got more than 1 million views since it was uploaded on July 10, which shows that a lot of people are watching it. And many are not enjoying. 

Since comments are disabled on YouTube (a wise idea), people took on Twitter to share their opinions AKA displeasure.

I’d say, this is what happens when you mess with a star.
