HEALTH AND WELLNESS
Considered a ‘Superfood’, Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) helps maintain a healthy and happy body! It is extracted from fresh coconut flesh and processed using natural methods i.e. there is no refining, bleaching or deodorization (RBD).
The H.E.A.L.™ process ensures that all the nutrients and its antimicrobial and antibacterial properties are retained. It is easy to digest and easily converts into energy as it is not readily stored as fat.
It contains high levels of polyphenols and antioxidants, much needed to repair and maintain healthy cells in our body. The presence of lauric acid (which is converted to monolaurin) offers protection against harmful pathogens (bacteria, viruses, yeast and parasites).
While Virgin coconut oil and water have gained popularity in recent years, another hidden gem within this versatile fruit is our Coconut Protein+. At 22g/100 gm serving, this promises to be a game-changer in the world of plant-based proteins.
Another healthy product from the coconut is our Low-Fat Desiccated Coconut Angel Flakes which are gently hot air dried coconut flesh from which coconut milk has been extracted.
Fact:
VCO is unique among vegetable oils and its high lauric acid content amplifies our health. Our body easily converts lauric acid to monolaurin (monolaurin is a marvel found in mother’s milk). It boosts our disease fighting ability and helps prevent infections in infants.
