Description: An illustration of a cocoanut's husk open showing the hard endocarp. Although coconut meat contains less fat than other dry nuts such as almonds, it is noted for its high amount of saturated fat.Approximately 90% of the fat found in coconut meat is saturated, a proportion exceeding that of foods such as lard, butter, and tallow. However, there has been some debate as to whether or not the saturated fat in coconuts is healthier than the saturated fat found in other foods. Coconut meat also contains less sugar and more protein than popular fruits such as bananas, apples and oranges, and it is relatively high in minerals such as iron, phosphorus and zinc.
