What it is

Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is a fat extracted from the meat of mature coconuts. "Virgin" indicates it is typically cold-pressed and minimally processed, while "organic" means it is produced according to organic farming standards.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut oil in various packaged foods, including baked goods, snacks, and cooking oils. It is valued for its distinct flavor, creamy texture, and ability to add richness to products.

Health notes

Coconut oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It is high in saturated fat; the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend limiting saturated fat intake to less than 10% of daily calories. While some research suggests potential benefits, evidence is mixed regarding its overall impact on heart health compared to other dietary fats.

Allergen info

Coconut is classified by the FDA as a tree nut for food labeling purposes, making it a major allergen.
