What Is Virgin Coconut Oil?

Virgin coconut oil is extracted from the fresh flesh of the coconut using a cold-press method, without heat or chemical processing. This helps retain more of the oil's natural nutrients and aroma compared to refined coconut oil, which typically goes through bleaching and deodorising. It is commonly used in cooking, and as a moisturiser for hair and skin. As with any dietary change, it's a good idea to speak with your doctor or a nutritionist about how it fits into your routine, especially if you have an existing health condition.
