- Virgin Coconut Oil is a very versatile oil that can be easily digested and metabolized. It is ideal for medium heat sautéing, stir frying, baking, and roasting, and as a replacement for olive oil.
- It is a notable substitute for butter, shortening, or other vegetable oils in baked good recipes, confectionary, and pastry products. It produces a lightness that you just can't get with butter.
- One of coconut oils most remarkable qualities is that it contains the beneficial lauric saturated fatty-acid. The content of lauric acid is also why the oil is solid at room temperature and highly resistant to rancidity.
- This luscious oil is well suited for use as a carrier oil in skin products, and is often used in the soap making industry because it is resistant to rancidity.
- It has very moisturizing qualities and is used in a wide variety of body and hair care recipes including skin care creams, lotions, massage oils, shampoos, conditioners, and in sun preparations.
