Coconut oil has a unique combination of 3 medium chain fatty acids which gives amazing health benefits: Lauric, Capric and Caprylic acids. Lauric acid increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels, which are considered to be good cholesterol. Medium-Chain Triglycerides (MCT) are metabolized in the liver to produce energy or ketones, that may have a therapeutic effect.

Coconut oil becomes creamy solid if the temperature is under 76°F, but it bears no reflexion on the quality. To liquefy it, put your jar under warm water before using.
