Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera) is a traditional dietary staple of the people of Asia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands and has been used in Ayurvedic herbalism for thousands of years. NOW Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is unrefined cold-pressed oil, and does not utilize any solvents in the manufacturing process. Coconut oil contains no trans-fats and is a rich source of Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT's), such as lauric acid (C-12) and caprylic acid (C-8). MCT's are less likely to be stored in the body as fat than most other fatty acids. Combined with essential fatty acids, it is a perfect addition to an overall healthy lipid program.
NOW Virgin Coconut Oil delivers the natural nutrient profile found in Genuine Whole Foods.
NOW also supplies Certified Organic, 100% Pure, Virgin Coconut Oil in lipid form.
Suggested Use
As a dietary supplement, take 3 softgels 2 to 3 times daily with meals. Consider taking this product in combination with NOW CLA Extreme and Thyroid Energy.
