What it is

Coconut oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the meat of mature coconuts. Highly refined coconut oil has undergone processing to remove impurities, resulting in a neutral flavor and aroma. This processing typically involves bleaching and deodorizing.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use highly refined coconut oil as a cooking oil and a fat source in baked goods and processed foods. Its neutral flavor makes it versatile, and it is often found in non-dairy products, frozen desserts, and spreads.

Health notes

Highly refined coconut oil is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is primarily composed of saturated fats, which can raise LDL cholesterol levels. The FDA has not established upper intake levels for coconut oil specifically. JECFA has evaluated coconut oil and set an acceptable daily intake.

Allergen info

Coconut is not considered one of the FDA's major food allergens. It is not derived from tree nuts, peanuts, or other major allergens.
