Our organic coconut oil (Virgin) contains a cornucopia of fatty acids, proteins and antioxidants. It's rich in so-called medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA's), which are, in great part, comprised of Caprylic acid, Lauric acid and Capric acid.

Coconut oil is ideal for high temperature cooking as an alternative to cheap vegetable and canola oil.

Coconut oil soothes the skin and is also excellent as an after-shower hair oil.

 

What is the difference between "RBD" and "Virgin" coconut oil?

  • RBD is an acronym, which stands for Refined, Bleached and Deodorized.
  • As the organic standard prescribes there is no use of chemical bleach or any other artificial chemical for that matter used during the process.
  • "RBD" coconut oil is dry steamed to deodorize while being carefully monitored to stay under 180 degrees Celsius. This neutralizes the majority of the coconut taste and smell making ideal for cooking and frying. This is not does not make the product inferior in any way.
  • "Virgin" coconut oil goes through the same extraction process but is not dry steamed. This makes it a more natural and pure form of coconut oil. It has a strong coconut taste and smell to it.

 

What the difference between coconut oil, coconut butter, coconut cream and coconut milk?

  • Coconut oil is a fat made from pressed coconut meat. It contains about 99% fat and not much of anything else.
  • Coconut butter (70% fat) is made with just shredded coconut that has been blended into a paste. Just like our other nut butters it only contains one ingredient.
  • Coconut cream is made by simmering coconut meat in water, The water then separates into a creamy, thick layer and a thin, more watery layer. The thick layer is packaged as coconut cream (25.4-37.3% fat), and the thinner liquid is labeled as coconut milk (12.7-25.3% fat). It contains much of the nutrients found in coconut meat.
