When coconut oil is exposed to heat, chemical reactions within the oil molecules rapidly increase. This is detrimental to the quality of the oil, as it loses its beneficial antioxidant properties. As the temperature increases, the fatty acid molecules are altered, robbing them of their nutritional value and making the oils potentially toxic.
