Product Notes:



Because of its lauric acid content, coconut oil is immediately used as energy, rather than stored as fat. It can kill microbes, viruses, and parasites; and yet it fosters health bacteria grown in the large bowel.

Pure coconut oil has multiple uses, both as a regular food oil with a naturally smooth and sweet flavour which you can use in lieu of butter or cream, for example, or for cooking with, and as a beauty product (it's good for the skin and the hair, and even as a health product, especially to aid in weight loss, since we metabolize it differently than other types of oils. And you can't get any purer than this, even if you make it yourself.

Alpha's Organic Virgin Coconut Oil may well be the very best type of coconut oil, since its DME (Direct Micro Expelled) process make it the freshest coconut oil on the market.

Product of the Solomon Islands. Hand pressed on site: 90 minutes fresh. Certified Fair Trade.

The coconut oil for this product is extracted within 20 to 90 minutes of the nut being husked, using manually-operated cold-pressing units, right at the same farms as the trees are grown (compared to from two days to two weeks or longer, at factories). That eliminates mold growth and the danger of other impurities; ensures the beneficial lauric acid stays as strong as possible; and greatly reduces the amount of natural oxidization that occurs before pressing when enzymes in the coconut exposed to air break down the oil, which can harshen the flavour and reduce its antimicrobial value.

Sustainable

This product is also certified fair-trade, due to the profit- sharing arrangement between the company and the Solomon Islanders doing the growing and hand-pressing directly from fresh coconuts on their own family farms, and their communities.

Note: there may also be a much larger 1.75 Litre size available in-store (ask for store code 20530).

Ingredients:

100% raw, certified organic, virgin DME (Direct Micro Expelled) coconut oil, containing 6.3 g of lauric acid per 15 ml serving.
