Coconut oil is nature’s greatest source of medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs).  MCFAs, unlike other oils, are easily digested and  completely broken down to individual fatty acids which don’t circulate the bloodstream to the degree that other fats do, but are used in the liver as a source of fuel to produce energy.  Also, because they are so easily digested, they contribute to the absorption of other nutrients such as fat soluble vitamins (e.g. vitamin A,D,E,K, and beta carotene).

The fatty acid content of coconut oil is: Caprylic (C8:0) 7.8 %, Capric (C10:0) 6.7%, and Lauric (C12:0) 47.5 %. Recent studies and testimonies have provided evidence to the vast health benefits  in regards to increased energy and metabolism, weight management, thyroid function, antimicrobial, antiviral and antifungal, properties of these fatty acids.

Because coconut oil is a natural saturated oil it is highly resistant to peroxidation and rancidity.  The antioxidant role of coconut oil makes it very important in cancer prevention and treatment.

Our certified organic virgin coconut oil is produced from freshly pressed coconut milk which undergoes centrifugation to separate the oil from water and solids. This method prevents fermentation and does not use high heat. We truly produce the purest most natural oil.
