The new star of organic grocery stores
We knew the coconut for its lightly sweet, very refreshing water, for its delicious pulp which, when grated and pressed, yields a sweet, rich milk, notably used in the
famous Tahitian poisson cru. Today, the coconut health properties are gaining fame beyond the Pacific. The new star of organic grocery stores and edible cosmetic fans, we find it in the form of
virgin coconut oil.
Cold pressed like quality olive oils, it is very rich in nutrients and very easily digestible, its subtle flavor combines well with both savory and sweet dishes, it replaces butter in pastries, and does not give off carcinogens when heated, like all other
cooking oils.
In cosmetics, it is antiseptic and antibacterial, it
hydrates the driest of skin (face and body), while leaving a delicate aroma on the epidermis, it is an effective makeup remover, and according to the latest studies, it may help in weight loss and slowing the development of Alzheimer's...
All these virtues make it an essential product to have at home!
Do not forget to obtain your
tahitian virgin coconut oil on your trip to French Polynesia.
