Product Description

Dietary supplement. No GMO. 100% Vegetarian. Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is among the healthiest, most versatile dietary oils in the world. Made from organically grown coconuts, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is an excellent cooking oil. With its natural coconut flavor and aroma, we think it is simply the best tasting, most aromatic coconut oil on the planet. Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is a stable, healthy saturated fat that is naturally free from trans-fatty acids. It contains medium chain fatty acids, such as lauric and myristic acids, that have shorter chain lengths than most animal derived long-chain saturated fatty acids. Consumption of coconut oil at recommended levels, along with a hrealthy diet and lifestyle, helps maintain already healthy levels of cholesterol (These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.) Unlike refined coconut oils, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is not hydrogenated, bleached, refined or deodorized.

Fantastic Coconut Oil! (and I'm picky!)

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 7, 2013

Verified Purchase

I have done my fair share of research when it comes to coconut oils, therefore it is safe to say that I know what I am looking for. (I had used a different brand prior to this, but the company no longer makes coconut oil, so I had to hunt for a suitable replacement.) Being that I use coconut oil topically as well as internally, it is very important for me to find a higher quality coconut oil, for the right price. I mainly look for 7 things when I consider purchasing a good quality coconut oil (in no particular order) - 1. Is it virgin (or extra virgin)/unrefined?, 2) Is it organic?, 3)the price, 4)glass container? 5)taste, 6)cold pressed?, and 7)has it been bleached or otherwise altered? It is a lot harder to find a coconut oil that fits this criteria for a descent price than one would assume. When I found this coconut oil by Garden of Life/Living Foods (after spending hours of research on various brands), I was incredibly happy. Although it perfectly fits my criteria, the thing that really sold me was the fact it was non-GMO, which is very important to me.

When my jar arrived in the mail, naturally I couldn't wait to try it. The color was a beautiful semi-transparent white, and the consistency was solid, yet nice and buttery to the touch. Upon taking a pea-sized amount out and into my hand, it completely melted into a silky liquid a few seconds after contact. The aroma and flavor is very pleasant and mild, and I could (and do) easily eat a spoonful of it.

I have also replaced all of my conventional lotions and face creams with this coconut oil. It does an amazing job, and really, my skin has never looked and felt better. It does NOT leave a greasy feeling on your skin at all - it actually absorbs into the skin really well a few minutes after application, and leaves it feeling nice and soft with a pleasant scent. I also use this as a lotion for both of my children, one of whom is an infant. They absolutely love it and I feel good knowing that I am using something all natural on their skin. (Note: If you are planning on using this as a moisturizer, please know that a little goes a long way!) :-)

Needless to say this will be my go-to brand of coconut oil from now on. Even though I have barely started this jar, I am already planning on purchasing my next one - this is absolutely fantastic coconut oil!

Great coconut oil

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 23, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is the first coconut oil I tried. It is great. Great taste, great smell, great consistency. With all the brands out there, it can be hard to pick one to start with. Somehow I went with Garden of Life and it worked out great. Ive also had Nutiva, which a lot of people use and can be found for a bit cheaper. You can buy a gallon tub from the direct website for cheaper. So shop around on Amazon and other sites once youve selected the brand you want.

Coconut oil, youve heard all the great things it does. Here are some things that hopefully persuade you more:

Ive found that when refrying leftovers, such as chinese food or meatballs, it actually IMPROVES the flavor over the original. With coconut oil, you can avoid microwaving, which does alter the taste and texture, and some say destroys nutrients and adds toxins. Just stir fry with coconut oil and enjoy your delicious leftovers!

It may serve as a bit of a replacement for vanilla in baking. The main purpose of vanilla is to add flavor. Unfortunately, the vanilla we had at home had the dreaded CORN SYRUP in it (READ YOUR LABELS). I looked online and it appeared that it could be omitted anyway, but as it turned out, coconut oil appears to provide that underflavor. Add a hint of coconut to your baking!

Yes, coconut oil can be much more expensive than regular oil, but you cant and shouldnt cook with olive oil. Almost every other oil is bad (soybean, canola, corn) or just not as good (butter). Think of it as an investment in your future. I know people who arent of strong financial means that would be hard pressed to give up their "coco" as I call it.

Enjoy!

Not In A Glass Jar

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 22, 2022

I specifically was looking for not only a coconut oil with a mild coconut flavor but was searching for one in a glass jar vs plastic because of the chemicals involved in plastics. This was advertised as being in a glass jar but it is plastic.

Buy It! You won't regret it!!!!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 21, 2014

So I have this skin condition that is pretty common is tan nationalities like myself. It’s a fungal discoloration of my skin in certain patches ranging from my cheeks to my feet; they’re lighter colored, become dry(ish) and sort of itchy. (I know it sounds gross😑) It feels sort of like reptile skin but not as severe. Anyways, my doctor had told me that he had this condition as well and the only way to control it and POSSIBLY get rid of it for good was to use a harsh chemical body soap that he prescribed to me. Me being against using harsh chemicals and sort of a “free spirit”, decided to look up alternate cures. I came across this, I've now been using it for about two months and my skin LOOKS AND FEELS so smooth and healthy! I no longer have those rough dis-colored patches on my body and I feel so confident and finally happy in my own skin ☺️ I cannot say enough great things about this product! My hair is extremely silky and luscious from using it as a conditioner as well as eating 1 tablespoon per day has made me feel 100% times better mentally and physically! Buy this product, you seriously won't regret it! Thank you so much!

Great Organic Product

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 22, 2013

Verified Purchase

I use this mainly to put in my dog's food (her coat is so shiny I almost can see myself) and I also use it for "oil pulling". Oil pulling consists of swishing an oil around in your mouth for about 20 minutes each day. It pulls out impurities and helps heal cavaties. It takes some getting used to but it really works - I have a molar that had broken and if I was chewing and a firm food (say, a piece of chicken) was pressed down on it from my upper molar in the crushing motion of chewing, the nerve pain would make me jump. I started doing oil pulling again and in about a week the pain was gone. I don't know whether I've ever healed a cavity but, since I can't afford visits to the dentist, this is my new insurance and treatment. I forget to use it for cooking - it's probably better than extra virgin olive oil, since you can't be sure what you're getting with that stuff.
I know some people who use it on their skin but it, weirdly, dries my skin out. I wish I could because it's great, healthy stuff.
