I've started cooking with coconut oil and have been researching it. It is a SAFE product, makes foods crispier, and ordering it from [...] is the most economical price ANYWHERE. I order the organic because my daughter does not like the flavor of coconut and organic has no flavor or very, very slight; I also order virgin coconut oil because I like the flavor of coconut. Research this yourself and you will find Spectrum Naturals is a good product and [...] offers the best price. It has NO TRANS FAT!!!

After I started using Shakakai and Amla powder on my hair with fantastic results (you can see my reviews for them as well) I did some research on Avurvedic hair care and decided to try using oil on my hair as well. I found studies showing that coconut and olive oil are two of the few oils that will penetrate the hair shaft so I started mixing them (50/50) to use in my hair after washing as a leave in treatment. The result was unbelievably soft hair!!! But even better than the way it's worked on my hair is the way it's worked on my daughters hair. One of my girls has very curly, baby fine hair which does NOT make for a good combination when it comes to tangles. The first time I used these oils I was able to brush through her hair with virtually no tangles! But the best thing was the way it made my hair feel. I have a sensory touch sensitivity... I can't tolerate feeling oil or sticky substances on my hands. I can't even stand to pet dogs who have short, coarse fur. So it goes without saying that I was a little concerned about putting oil in my hair!!! But not only did it turn out super soft, it is absolutely non greasy once it absorbs into the hair and it also feels cleaner somehow. My hair looks super shiny and healthy... I'm so amazed at the difference. It's really done wonders!

Hmmm. Coconut oil that can be used for body and for cooking. I was suspect. Opened jar to get a wiff of my beloved coconut fragrance. NONE. Only after the fact did I do my reading to learn the benefits of this product. I Like it. Texture while cold seems gritty upon scooping out, but goes on smooth upon application. If heated, turns completely liquid. Left mine by a heating element accidently and I thought someone had poured water into the jar. Firmed back up on window sill. I used this product for after bath with great results. Used it on the kids. Used it for sauteing something when I ran out of regular oil. Worked fine. I didn't rate 5 stars because I didn't like the idea of scooping it out while firm which is my preferred texture for body application. I'd buy it again as I'm moving towards more natural products.

I have been using Coconut oil for about 5years now. Its a wonderful product if have trouble with BM. U can cook with it like regular cooking oil. I put it in oatmeal, brownies, grits, fry my eggs or turkey bacon, sautee vegies anything really! I dont use it in liquids like cereal but it works fine. It has no taste so U dont even notice a difference.

This coconut oil is awesome. I was worried about it being too heavy on my skin and hair, but I was wrong. When it arrived (since I purchased two 14 oz jars) one of the jars leaked from the humid Florida temperatures, but I knew it would happen. It has no smell which I love since coconut's scent can bother you after a while. I apply this oil to my body, and hair, and sometimes just a tiny amount to my face. I use a plastic spoon to take some oil out to put it on the lid to use on myself. I also recently poured some oil in a bottle with Jojoba oil, and Lavender oil which makes it great for body oil, and for the hair.
Just after using it on my hair for one day, I felt like I didn't need to put conditioner on my hair because it's not healthy for your hair. So, I'm just using shampoo and applying the oil. My hair feels so much soft, alive, and less frizzy without knots. Even when I wake up, my hair is STILL soft. I wouldn't bother with hair care products that keep your hair soft or shiny because all you need is this or a natural/organic oil. Using this oil on my skin has lead me to stop using store-purchased lotions since it has too many chemicals and the results are only temporarily soft skin. Not only that, but I used this oil on my feet and my feet have been baby smooth soft and much less irritated since I have dry skin. Even the heels on my feet are more soft.
Buy this oil, and you won't even think about buying baby oil, or lotions!

Yes, it comes in a glass jar. I was very pleased with this. I've been using this oil topically for about 2 weeks now (especially when I get out of the shower/bath) and its pretty good stuff. My skin feels hydrated and my nail cuticles look great. It also works great as a carrier oil for essential oils and I've made my own shaving "oil" with tea tree essential oil. Works great for a smooth leg shave. I've come to find out that I enjoy coconut oil better than olive oil as a moisturizer for hair and skin. Its not as .... heavy. I've cooked with this oil, too. My favorite is to roast sweet potatoes in the oven with this stuff. They come out nice and caramelized and, again, not as "heavy" as they are with olive oil. I dunno. Maybe its just me :)
When the oil arrived, it was quite a warm day PLUS it had been on that hot delivery truck. It was completely liquid but it did harden. The texture, at first, in the hardened stage is "grainy" but smoothes out very quickly once it comes into contact with body heat. I would advise that if you are using this topically as well as culinarily divide the oil for your specific use, i.e. another glass container for your cosmetic use.
Great product and will buy again!

ok
Worked great on my skin and I love it for my hair too! :) Definitely would buy this again but I heard they sell it at Walmart so instead of buying it here, I'll buy it there.

Do your homework, before buying!!
I will use this oil for a body moisturizer and instead of PAM in the frying pan. But, that's it.

Beware:Heavily processed
I bought it because I did not notice it was "refined".I am in the process of returning all 4 jars.The process of "refining" which takes out the taste and the smell is toxic. Read more

Does Spectrum Brand have MCT?
The Spectrum bottle label does not mention that it contains MCT. Since it's bleached, maybe MCT has been processed out. Read more
