Loaded with Lauric Acid
Nutiva’s Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is a food that hails from Southeast Asia where fresh coconuts are cold-pressed right after harvesting. The fresh meat inside each nut yields a pure, smooth oil that is never deodorized, bleached, or refined. With loads of vitamin E, our Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is not good just for your insides, but your outsides, too! Coconut contains lauric acid, a medium-chain fatty acid also found in human breast milk. Lauric acid makes up about 50% of coconut oil.
frequently asked questions
Why is there slight coloration at the bottom of my Organic Coconut Oil?
Slight coloration of our Virgin Coconut Oil is normal and is to be expected. There is a thin brown papery skin on the outside of the coconut meat underneath the shell. Some of that will come out with the meat as it is hand scooped out of the shell. Even after pressing and filtering some of it will settle out and cause a coloration to the oil, especially at the bottom.
What is the difference between refined and unrefined coconut oil?
Refined coconut oil has a neutral scent and taste and is perfect if you want the benefits of coconut without the strong coconut flavor. Unrefined coconut oil, also known as virgin coconut oil, has the rich creamy smell and flavor of fresh coconuts. At Nutiva, we offer both Organic Virgin Coconut Oil and Organic Refined Coconut Oil products.
What is the shelf life of Nutiva's Organic Virgin Coconut Oil?
Both Nutiva's Organic Virgin Coconut Oil and Organic Refined Coconut Oil have a shelf life of two years from the date the product was packed.
