Now where is the issue, palm oil or coconut oil ?

So we have to consume coconut oil with alpha toxin.
Gamarala Monday, 05 April 2021 09:59 PM
Why? Palm oil does not contain alpha toxin?

Palm Oil ban is good. Let's develop the local Coconut Oil production which is organic and far better than any other oils for Sri Lankans.
