Coconut Oil

Aromatic Coconut Oil is a very versatile Superfood. It can take the place of butter or other oils as a spread. It can also be used in making smoothies, in raw foods and dehydrated food recipes, in baby food formulas and in making confectioneries such as ice cream and other frozen desserts. It is also excellent for baking and sautéing due to its high heat tolerance.

For many years consumers were warned by medical “authorities” against the use of coconut oil for its saturated fat content. However, its many health benefits can be denied no longer. Unlike most saturated fats, un-hydrogenated coconut oil does not elevate bad cholesterol levels (LDL). Furthermore, it has mulitple healing properties. It is anti-microbial, anti-bacterial and anti-viral and anti-oxidant! 

Containing the good fat called Lauric Acid (found in mothers milk) it is now rightfully recognized as the Superfood it truly is, mainly because its medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) are efficiently metabolized in the body and converted to energy rather than as stored fat! No other oil is like it in terms of usefulness and longevity.
