Virgin Coconut Oil is extracted from fresh coconuts sourced from Sri Lanka’s
finest coconut plantations, both organic-certified and conventional. The
extraction process preserves the natural goodness of the coconuts, including a
superior lauric acid content. Virgin Coconut Oil is extracted under carefully
controlled process conditions with great care taken to limit the temperature
used during drying. After extraction, high quality filtration is the only
process used.
Daily consumption of coconut oil has been shown to have multiple benefits. Due
to the high medium chain triglyceride content, coconut oil is metabolized
differently to other edible oils – being preferentially broken down in the liver
for energy source as opposed to being transported around the body and deposited
as fat. For this reason, coconut oil is used in both high quality infant milk
formulas, as well as a supportive agent for critical care patients. Lauric acid
has been shown to have benefits as a natural anti-microbial and anti-viral
agent. Coconut oil also brings substantial improvement in the quality of life as
a supportive measure for Alzheimers’ and other neurodegenerative diseases.
Apart from the health benefits, virgin coconut oil is delicious as a delicately
flavored oil suitable for dressing salads, garnishing main meals, stirred into
your coffee or for direct daily consumption straight from the spoon.
Virgin
coconut oil brings out your beauty inside and out, as a natural skin moisturizer
and hair re-conditioner to give soft, smooth skin and lustrous hair that
radiates. |
