Customer Reviews

Don't believe the hype
I used to hear how coconut oil is so unhealthy for you. But thank God for the internet and objective researchers. Perhaps if a coconut oil has been refined and adulterated and hydrogenated it will be unhealthy, but raw, virgin coconut oil is one of the best things in the world for you. I use this product not only in my diet but for skin and health care as well. Think about it, how could a fruit that grows from the earth for our benefit be unhealthy? This Nutiva product is a godsend and I will make sure to keep a steady stock of it from now on. Just check out the several books out there touting the benefits of virgin coconut oil and you'll see what I mean.

Best food of all time!
Coconut oil is the only non-stimulant food I know that does speed up your metabolism miraculously! And Nutiva's coconut oil is among the most refined high quality ones.

Great product, great price
Excellent taste. We've been getting Coconut oil for years from Whole Foods. While I like supporting WF, this is significantly cheaper and was the best price I could find with rather extensive web searching.

We add 1-2 tsp to our Whey protein shakes in the morning to add a some *good* fat calories into the mix.
