Even though the hot extraction method is an ideal method for
the incorporation of better nutritional qualities to coconut oil,
due to the thermal stability and oxidative stability of the saponifiable
fraction of coconut oil, such high temperature extraction
methods may affect the quality of saponifiable fraction of oils that
contain higher percentages of unsaturated fatty acids. Further research
work is needed to understand the limitations of the use of
hot extraction conditions to extract oils containing high percentages
of polyunsaturated fatty acids.
