DID YOU KNOW?
Captain Cook was among the many Early European explorers who wrote affectionately about the beauty of communities across the Pacific who used coconut oil as a staple food.
Coconut (kon-kuh-nuht) Oil
a white, semisolid oil extracted from fresh coconuts (Cocus nucifera).
Tropical Tree of Life
In tropical regions around the world, the harvest of the coconut palm is such a valued dietary staple the tree has affectionately earned the reputation as simply the “Tree of Life.” Coconut oil – the oil that is left after the fiber is extracted from the large coconut “seed” -- is among the most nutritionally beneficial components of this food. Navitas Naturals offers a fresh coconut oil in a virgin and centrifugal-pressed from, a delicate process which allows the full nutritional potential and light buttery taste of this power food to be best enjoyed. Our organic oil is pure and white in its spoonable solid state, and may be easily melted, if desired, into a clear liquid by simply heating the oil to above 75 degrees.
The Power of Coconut Oil
A dependable food for those seeking high-energy and/or a lean physique, coconut oil’s benefits are widely celebrated. A cholesterol-free source of healthy plant-based saturated fats (very different from the damaging animal-derived saturated fats), coconut oil features medium chain fatty acids (MFCAs), and especially lauric acid. Among the many benefits of MFCAs are long-lasting energy, increased metabolic rates, as well as anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal activity. Coconut oil may also be used topically to beautifully rejuvenate skin and hair.
A New Kitchen Staple

Because of its stable molecular structure, coconut oil is also among the healthiest (and most delicious!) choices for heated culinary applications.
