This virgin coconut oil is more than an ordinary cooking oil – it is a versatile product that is excellent for both cooking and baking, as well as in various healthy recipes. With its organic certification and non-GMO labelling, it guarantees a product produced under controlled and responsible conditions. The oil's pure character and high content of medium-chain fatty acids make it a natural choice for those who want an unadulterated and easy-to-use oil in the kitchen or in their daily routine.

Active Ingredients 26 Science

The central component of this coconut oil is its content of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT), which make up approximately 64% of the fatty acids. These fatty acids, with lauric acid as the most prominent, have a chemical structure different from long-chain fatty acids and are rapidly absorbed by the body. The cold-pressing method means the oil is mechanically extracted without heat, preserving its natural fatty acid profile and characteristic coconut flavour. The high proportion of saturated fats also contributes to the oil's stability when heated up to approximately 177b0C.

Benefits 26 Uses

• Can replace butter or other oils in cooking and baking thanks to its high smoke point and mild coconut flavour.
• Suitable as an addition to smoothies and raw food recipes to provide natural fat and flavour.
• Suitable for vegans, and those following ketogenic or low-carbohydrate diets.
• Also works as a natural ingredient in skin and hair care routines due to its pure and organic nature.
• A versatile oil to keep at home for everyday cooking – from frying to adding extra flavour and texture to various dishes.

Usage 26 Dosage

The organic virgin coconut oil can be used in amounts as needed. A common dosage is 1–2 tablespoons per day, which can be added to cooking, baking, or drinks such as smoothies. The oil withstands heating up to about 177b0C, making it suitable for frying, sautéing, and baking. To preserve the oil's flavour and nutritional properties, overheating should be avoided. It can also be combined with other health supplements such as green powders or protein powders for a complete nutritious meal option.
