Although Coconut oil contains over 80% saturated fat, but some studies suggest that your body handles them differently than the longer-chain fats in liquid vegetable oils, dairy, and fatty meats. Coconut oil is a natural source of medium-chain triglycerides or MCTs, which offer several possible health benefits. 🌸It contains healthy fatty acids which may encourage HDL (good) cholesterol. 🌸When consumed in smaller amount, coconut oil can improve satiety and may help in burning fat and thus induce weight loss. 🌸Studies have found coconut oil pulling to protect against cavities, improve gingivitis, and influence the oral bacterial balance. 🌸Virgin coconut oil may have antioxidant properties. Researchers believe that virgin coconut oil could be useful in treating some kinds of depression. 🌸Lauric acid makes up about 50% of the fatty acids in coconut oil. The fatty acids found in coconut oil have antimicrobial properties that effectively kill bacteria and fungi. 🌸Coconut oil may relieve inflammation by improving antioxidant status and decreasing oxidative stress. 🌸Coconut oil can be applied to skin, and hair. Studies suggest it works as a skin moisturizer, aid in the treatment of dry skin and eczema, protects against hair damage. It also accelerate wound healing. Not all coconut oils are the same, so while choosing, opt for the least processed type. I would recommend Nutiva Virgin Coconut Oil, its processing does not involve high temperatures or added chemicals. Consuming 2 tablespoons per day is sufficient to achieve health benefits, but it’s best to work up to this amount gradually!

Best, cleanest, and fair trade certified

I have purchased this amazing organic & virgin coconut oil for years. It’s tasty and useful for cooking and baking and also for making body butter/skincare. It’s also even great for my dogs as I make a bit of turmeric & ground flax paste to add to their food. I’ve bought other brands of coconut oil and only like the highest quality coconut oils like Nutiva and Dr. Bronner’s for my home. Note: only 2 of the glass jar sizes are labeled fair trade, so please be aware of that.

Excellent!

Nutivia Organic Coconut Oil is the best coconut oil on the market. It is certified organic, unrefined, and cold pressed, which is highly recommended for any oil. The quality of this oil is what separates it from any other brand. The taste is very hard to beat. Coconut oil has many uses and highly recommended for a optimum health benefit. For the size of the bottle, I-Herb keeps the price affordable compared to other websites and stores. You will taste the difference with Nutivia.

Favorite Coconut Oil Bar None

There just isn't another coconut oil that I've found better than Nutiva's. It's clean, has no weird smell or flavor. It isn't all that coconutty actually - just mildly noticeable. Works great in baking, cooking, for supplementation, and even for hair and skin. If you use it for your hair however, it's more for a conditioner that you must wash out so you don't look oily - just a little dots spread on your hands and rubbed through your hair is PLENTY for conditioning. But remember I warned you that you will need to shampoo after so you don't look oily. ;-)

I absolutely recommend it.Another thing I recommend doing is writing every day to free yourself from negative and heavy thoughts. After writing your head is ready for other challenges because it is light. Writing is therapy. A reading that changed my life and allowed me to work on my traumas and emotions is "Everything will be fine I promise" by Faouzi Zouhair. Really recommended.Whatever you are going through know that it will be okay. 🌸🌸

perfect size wide jar, best NEUTRAL oil for high heat cooking

I like to have refined coconut oil for high heat cooking, and especially when I don't want the coconut flavor. Organic oils are extremely important, and refined coconut is the easiest high heat cooking oil you can find. and cheapest. I have never seen an organic avocado oil, I'm surprised that it's so popularly used and recommended in "organic/healthy foods/diets" despite it not being organic. The only other high heat fats I'll use is ghee or duck fat. Of those 3, unrefined coconut oil is the most neutral. And all 3 have their own unique great benefits and nutrients.I like to have the UNrefined coconut oil for other uses: lower heat frying/baking/etc like thai soups, south american food, or any instance something benefits from a hint of or extra coconut flavor, oil ... MoreI like to have refined coconut oil for high heat cooking, and especially when I don't want the coconut flavor.

Which is also good from nutiva in my experience. But absolutely the REFINED only for high heat.also, iherb has been the cheapest prices I can find for most things and I appreciate it as a resource while I struggle to afford the all the highest quality and necessary things being chronically healing from lupus.Hope this helps! if it does, a thumbs up/like helps me a smidge :)

will be ordering again

I like the taste of a good quality cold pressed organic coconut oil. the stuff at the store is not as tasty. I could actually eat a tablespoon of this once or twice a day because the flavor is great. I use it because medicines gave me oral thrush also known as Candida. I swish it and then spit it out. people also use this for the teeth by pulling any tartar out of their teeth. a good quality coconut oil is used for this purpose. I don't use it for cooking. I use it for swishing and The taste is great.
