COCONUT OIL FOR SKIN HEALTH

Most consumers think all coconut oil is the same but this is far from the truth.

A significant amount of coconut oil sold on the market today as Virgin Coconut Oil is not virgin at all. Most of it is made commercially with the application of harsh solvents and chemical. In addition, it is usually what we would call Copra Oil, devoid of virtually any goodness that true Virgin Coconut Oil is known for. The resulting oil is called RBD coconut oil in the industry and it is basically rubbish. RBD stands for refined, bleached, and deodorized. It is usually hydrogenated oil which is not good for you as it raises serum cholesterol levels and this can lead to higher risk of heart disease. Watch for coconut oil where it says on the labe "and Fragrance" or something similar. Usually this means that they have added Coconut Extract to put the aroma back in!

Our Virgin Coconut Oil is produced using the DME Method or the Direct Micro Expelling Method. As each batch of mature coconuts are cracked, the coconut flesh is then grated, the water content is removed under controlled drying and then our Vanuatu Premium Coconut Oil™ is cold-pressed - all within 1-3 hours. The end result is a beautiful Virgin Coconut Oil full of antioxidants and the natural coconut aroma.

Volcanic Earth coconut oil may be a little more expensive but we make no apologies for quality over quantity. Below are images showing you the DME method of production in action.
