Coconut...
By NYFB
16 oz at a time gives me a better option than those 54 oz jars since I get fresh jar every 16 oz instead of having all three jars in one jar which looses its nutritional value regardless. There is one brand in Canada which is pricier and is an excellent medicinal VCO. I prefer the VCO with whole kernel vs. the white kernel. The difference between virgin coconut oil (VCO)and other oils is in the fat molecule with zero cholesterol and zero trans fat, highly stable and digestible. All oils are composed of molecules called fatty acids, which are either saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated. They can also be categorized by the length of the carbon chain within each fatty acid. VCO is predominately formed with medium-chain fatty acids, unlike the average fatty acids we consume which are long-chain fatty acids. Our body responds to each type of fatty acid differently. There are many simple and effective ways to integrate the benefits of VCO into your everyday routine.
COOKING: Since coconut oil is heat stable, it can be baked into desserts, and substituted for olive oil or vegetable oil. Well, I will never give up cooking with EVOO, since too me that is the best. I consume huge amounts of EVOO with everything but for my popcorns, I go with coconut.
SKIN: VCO is a massage oil, so is almond oil. Almond oil is the best skin conditioner. VCO is the best for all my scabs when mountain biking since it keeps the skin together, soft and moist which does not allow it to dry which becomes very compelling to remove the scab which is a no, no.
HAIR: leave-in conditioner for the hair with coconut oil, avocado and beer. I place it on my hair before I head out to the beach for surfing. The ocean salt removes the VCO and the grease. No need to use shampoo to remove the VCO.
TOOTHPASTE: Scientists tested coconut oil against Streptococcus mutans - a sugar-loving bacterium that clings to teeth and produces acid causing them to rot. When the oil was treated with digestive enzymes it became a powerful killer of the bug. I brush my teeth at night with coconut oil.
STORAGE: The most nutritious oils are sold in brown or green glass bottles and boxed to keep out the light and avoid deterioration. Always try to avoid heating oils where possible as this diminishes their nutritional value. As refrigeration is not necessary, coconut oil is great for travelling but I always keep all my food in refrigerator away from light, moisture and heat. Like all edible oils, the fresher it is the better. I never apply heat and that is why I consume straight from the jar with spoon except when making popcorn.
COCONUT OIL SHOULD CONTAIN: Virgin Organic Coconut Oil (Containing 6.2 g of Medium Chain Triglycerides per 10 g serving), organic, raw, extra virgin or virgin, cold-pressed from the meat of the coconut, composed of the husk-shell-meat, unrefined, undeodorized, and non-hydrogenated.
COCONUT OIL SHOULD NOT CONTAIN: Dairy, egg, artificial preservatives, colours, yeast, artificial sweeteners, wheat, soy, gluten, corn, added flavourings or added preservatives.
CONSUMPTION: World Health Organization, have warned against consuming too much coconut as it contains high levels of saturated fat and calories - a 15g tablespoon VCO contains around 120 calories. That is truly high calories. Coconut is 50 per cent made up of a fatty acid called lauric acid which if consumed to excess can contribute to increased risk of coronary heart disease. The difference between the saturated fat in coconut oil and that in biscuits and cakes is that it exists in a different chemical form so is digested more easily and sent directly to your liver and converted into energy. Studies show that this type of fat can speed up your metabolism, so you will burn more calories. It is important, however, to keep your intake of all saturated fats to a minimum - about 10 per cent of your daily calorie intake. I consume only one spoon a day in the morning since in the evening I consume raw honey for sweets, digestion, pollen and nutrients.

By brenda barnes
I use this product as a skin moisturizer and it works wonderfully! Apply it in its solid state for more control, it melts on the skin.
I use this product in place of butter in my hot cereals, on my pancakes, ect. It gives them such a heightened flavor!
I use this product instead of other oils as grease for pancakes, ect.
I use this product instead of butter or oil in my sweet baked goods.
It does have a mildly sweet flavor so I don't use it in cooking veggies or meat-unless I want them to taste sweet.
When a recipe calls for oil, I use the same amount of this product and just melt it to a liquid consistency in the microwave.
