Refined Coconut Oil

Opis

Refined Coconut Oil or Copra Oil is an edible oil extracted from the kernel or meat of matured coconuts harvested from the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera).

It has various applications in food, medicine, and industry. Because of its high saturated fat content it is slow to oxidize and, thus, resistant to rancidification, lasting up to two years without spoiling.

It is an ideal fat for flavoured coating used in ice cream industry, and it is excellent source in replacing milk fat.

The nice fragrance, antioxidants and taste of O Extra Virgin Coconut Oil makes it distinctive among others. Coconut Oil is not a new name, but Extra Virgin Coconut Oil can be an unfamiliar name to you. For increase in the sales, the ordinary oil has not been given a new name. But due to its purest form, it is called to be as O Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. Without applying any heat, the oil is extracted from the coconuts. In comparison to other ordinary coconut oil, this type of oil is gaining more popularity and for a good reason.

If you’ve been around the real food community much, you’ve probably noticed the rapid widespread popularity of coconut oil. Once ostracized by the medical community for its saturated fat content, it seems that coconut oil might finally be making a comeback in the mainstream health community.

Coconut oil is the most nutrient-dense part of the coconut. It is solid at room temperature like butter and doesn’t break down in heat or light.

For years, “health” advice has warned against consuming saturated fats, and coconut oil was thrown out with the rest without good reason!

These are some of the reasons why I love it:
