Virgin Coconut Oil is often called nature's miracle oil: it provides complete body care, from within and outside. A tablespoon of virgin coconut oil a day - in your cooking will help boost immunity, metabolism, and keep your digestive system happy and healthy. The secret to the many wonderful benefits of virgin coconut oil is a medium-chain fat otherwise found only in mother's milk - Lauric Acid. It digests easily in the body, is converted directly to energy, is not stored as fat, and is a highly effective brain-food. Lauric acid breaks down in the body to help the body produce Monolaurin - a key immune boosting agent. We produce virgin coconut oil the traditional way - from coconut milk. Coconut milk is extracted from specifically aged coconuts (9-11 months old), and passed through a cold-process centrifuge to extract the oil. This oil retains all the natural antioxidants that the coconut fruit already has, and smells like fresh coconut. We do not use any heat, chemicals or extraction solvents in our process.
