Coconut Oil 450 ml

Cold pressed, unrefined

Coconut oil is extracted from the coconut meat applying the cold press method, using innovative screw presses. This cold pressed, unrefined edible vegetable oil is a stable, healthy saturated fat, free from gluten, hydrogenated fats, cholesterol, additives, artificial additives or preservatives. The oil extracted from fresh coconut meat has a high content of medium chain fatty acids, as much as between 70 and 85%, with lauric acid accounting for the largest volume among fatty acids. Medium chain fatty acids, unlike the long chain fatty acids that prevail in other vegetable oils, are not stored in the adipose tissue butthey are rather rapidly absorbed in the body, regulating digestion and bowel movements. This oil ranks among the healthiest and most versatile oils for human consumption. Thanks to its natural coconut taste and flavour, itis quite convenient for food preparation. It is more stable at high temperatures than other vegetable oils. Its high count smoking (around 180°C) makes it is ideal for cooking, frying or baking. Coconut oil is used in nutritionas it is resistant to rancidity and a low calorie food thatis quickly converted into energy and does not contribute to deposition of fat in blood vessels. It is an excellent and delicious substitute for butter because it contains no trans-fatty acids. It is rich in proteins, carbohydrates and minerals. Coconut oil is excellent for the massage, care and regeneration of skin and hair.

Why unrefined?

In contrast to the industrially processed oil that has to pass at least six stages of refining, the cold-pressed oil has a pleasant smell and a taste of a raw food and does not have to undergo any of the refining stages.

Why cold press?

Cold-pressed oil is obtained by mechanical pressing of coconut meat. The obtained oil fully retains all nutrients, especially essential fatty acids in which the seeds are naturally rich.
