... the research was carried out on hydrogenated coconut oil which undergoes a refining process that alters the make-up of the fatty acid chains and creates harmful trans-fatty acids. Virgin coconut oil that has not undergone any refinement is actually regarded as one of the healthiest oils.* So far I haven't tried cooking with it, but I have heard some very good things and I intend to experiment with it soon. Over the summer I found I needed to store my pot of coconut oil in a cool place as it melts at 24 C and my ...more

About a year ago I was watching the TV and heard an expert say that coconut oil is the best natural moisturiser that there is. I'm usually hesitant about using new products as I have sensitive skin, but since it only contains one ingredient which is totally natural and can be eaten, I eagerly bought some in my local health food shop to see what all the fuss was about.

This is a great oil and has helped me with my thyroids and general health. Since I’ve been taking your coconut oil my energy has increased so much that I’ve joined a sports centre over 50’s classes and go twice a week. I have also started taking Salsa lessons. The condition of my hair is fabulous. I could not achieve the same results with hair products costing 10s of pounds. I purchase my oil from http://www.coconut-oil-uk.com <a href='http://www.coconut-oil-uk.com'>Virgin Coconut ... Read the complete review
