ORGANIC COCONUT OIL, virgin, unrefined, raw
SKU: O20-2
Hurry up! Sales Ends In
Botanical Name: Cocos nucifera
Country of Origin: Philippines
Production: Coconut oil is extracted from the meat of mature fresh coconuts harvested from the coconut palm. Virgin coconut oil is made from the first pressing of fresh, raw coconuts, without the addition of any chemicals. This pure-white, creamy natural product is neither, bleached, hydrogenated, nor deodorized.
Qualities: Virgin coconut oil is fairly high in saturated fat but is also about half lauric acid, a medium-chain fatty acid believed to raise HDL. Compared to many other types of fats, the fatty acids in coconut oil might be digested more easily and have also been known to kill harmful pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
Common Use: Coconut oil is extremely versatile. As it can be heated to high temperatures it is ideally suited for frying and baking and adds a fine, exotic note to dishes. Coconut oil generally acquires a stronger coconut flavor as it is exposed to more heat, whereas raw, unrefined coconut oil has a very mild flavor and scent. This explains the wide range of applications of raw coconut oil in skin-, hair-, and dental care, making it an excellent skin and hair moisturizer or for “oil pulling”.
Storage: Because of its high saturated fat content, coconut oil is slow to oxidize which renders it resistant to rancidification and can be kept at room temperature. For longterm storage, it can be refrigerated or frozen.

Great Coconut Oil
Always fresh!
Lots of coconut oil
Awesome coconut oil for cooking taste and for skincare and hair styling, won’t need to get oil for a while. And product was delivered quick
Nice and light
This coconut oil is see-through clear when melted and tastes nice and light. I find it better to cook with than any other that I've used.
Amazing!
I love this product and enjoy it daily in my bulletproof coffee! I purchased 5 gal and was pleasantly surprised that, unlike my previous supplier, OM doesn't double bag it in the bucket. Yay! Less plastic is a good thing and it makes filling my smaller jar so much easier. Thanks OM!
