Types of Coconut Oil
and How to Purchase the Best
Like most things, not all coconut oil is created equal; some are better than others.
As was the case when coconut oil was used heavily in the food processing industry
years ago, there is still a lot of refined coconut oil in circulation. Obviously, the more
processed the oil is, the less health benefits it possesses.
Coconut oil is extracted from the kernel or meat of a mature coconut.
Coconuts are not actually nuts, but are rather considered fruits because
of the way they are made up. They have three layers; the exocarp (outer
layer), the mesocarp (middle layer), and the endocarp (hardy woody layer
around the seed). While all parts of the coconut are valuable, the oil has
been the topic of a great amount of recent research.
