“KTC Coconut Oil is 100% pure, refined coconut oil. The oil is not hydrogenated in any way and hexane is not used in the refining process.”

​Yes but not this one. Only the organic and cold pressed one.

It's been this price for some time although I've added heat as it's not been posted for ages.
An excellent, multi use product too. Not just for cooking.


And you've got a great name.

thanks! i've wanted to try this stuff but it's really pricey whenever I've remembered to look anywhere!

Had a chat with the nurse at our doctors today regarding the use of coconut oil and its impact on cholesterol. She said that the virgin oil was OK in moderation, however the processed stuff should be avoided.

I don't think the nurse has all the facts:

coconut oil is super duper!

good find op, heat added

Not voting either way, yes it is cheap but it is heavily refined. Will still have health benefits as coconut oil in any form is difficult to damage but if money permits, I would always go for the more expensive unrefined oils

Did they have any snake oil? :smile:

Great price. I usually have to use bacon and sausages to clog my arteries but this is way cheaper.

Tried this stuff in the past, there isn't even a coconut smell to it and it's virtually tasteless. Spend a few pounds more and get the stuff that's £3-4 from home bargains and the like, it is far superior and also doesn't break the bank.

The idea is its tasteless. You don't want it to taint the food you're preparing.

I use this in my dogs food, just a little scrape each morning. It has settled a skin complaint my older dog was having. Been using it about a year now.

If you're not interested in eating this (personally I don't trust KTC anyway) then it's great for a myriad other things:
- skin moisturiser (use it myself, works great - I swim a lot)
- beard conditioner
- pet food additive
- "personal" lubricant (search reddit for your particular peccadillo and compatibility, but basically safe for everything)
- oh yeah, cooking probably, but I wouldn't use this one myself

Well she spent a week researching it and discussed it with my wife's doctor before finding the time to call to discuss it, so in all fairness I prefer the opinion of a health professional over an Internet website. And as an aside, a reputable website specialising in heart health and reducing cholesterol has a totally different view to yours. https://heartuk.org.uk/latest-news/article/heart-uks-statement-on-coconut-oil

Did you read your link? :wink:

Coconut oil are good for the nuts, only trouble is you have to change the bedsheets afterwards.its worth it
though when your girlfriend complements you on how shinny they are, dont tell her what the secret is. That way she'll keep coming back for more.
