Benefits of Sri Lankan Coconut Milk Gravy –
- Coconut milk is high in saturated fats, particularly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are easily digested and converted into energy by the body.
- The fats in coconut milk, while saturated, are considered healthier compared to other animal fats.
- Curry spices like turmeric, garlic, and cumin also have anti-inflammatory properties, which may help reduce inflammation in the arteries and support overall cardiovascular health.
