Nutiva Coconut Oil Review






I was thrilled to be able to review Nutiva's Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. I love cooking with coconut oil because it is so healthy and has a high heat point. Unlike olive oil (which is great for cold dishes), coconut oil has a high heat point, and so it can be used for cooking/baking, without creating free radicals in one's body. Free radicals harm cells and can cause illnesses and even cancer. Coconut Oil is one of the healthiest foods on earth; it is anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anti-microbial. It contains lauric-acid, which is a very healthy fat, also found in breast milk.

I have enjoyed using Nutiva's Coconut Oil in my recipes, this past month. I have tried several different types of coconut oil, in the past, and I must say that Nutiva's Coconut Oil is one of the best I have ever tried. I love how it has a delicious flavor, yet it isn't overpowering. I used it to coat my pan before cooking omelettes, and there was no over-powering coconut smell to my eggs! I made a pizza with Nutiva's Coconut Oil and it was divine. I am so glad that I got to try Nutiva's Coconut Oil, and I will definitely be ordering more!


I received a jar of Nutiva's Coconut Oil in exchange for an honest blog review. I was under no obligation to write a positive review; the thoughts contained herein are my own opinion.
