WHAT IS VCO ?
VCO
VCO is made from fresh coconuts.
It has a distinct aroma and taste of
coconuts present. It is unspoiled

been produced from copra or
commercially refined, bleached and
deodorized.
It is natural, organic and no
chemical or heat processing done
to alter the original properties of
the product
Discovery of Lauric acids
1966- Professor Jon. J. Kabara, Ph.D.
from Michigan State University
discovered the miracle of lauric acids
found in coconut oil.
This medium chain fatty acids:- are
similar to the fats in a mother’s milk
have nutraceutical effects
naturally protects and nourishes the
human body.
Since then, numerous researches all
over the world have consistently
confirmed that VCO is one of the
healthiest types of oil
Virgin Coconut Oil
The lauric acid content contains
characteristics of a mother’s milk
which is the very foundation of
human nourishment.
VCO extracted through our
bacteria fermentation process
yield three times higher lauric
acid than mother’s milk.
VCO contains no trans fatty acids
(TFA) that are linked to
cardiovascular disease, diabetes
and cancer, among others.
Benefits of Lauric Acids
VCO is rich in lauric acid. Lauric
acid within our body is
converted into monolaurine
that has anti-viral, antibacterial
and antiprotozoan properties.
In other words, VCO helps to
enhance our immune system

of VCO per day . (preferably
before breakfast).
Children (5 – 12) – 1 teaspoon

of medium chain fatty acids
(MCFAs).
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any “side effects” of VCO
VCO is a food not a medication
and therefore it does not have
“side effects”
There could be some adverse
reactions in the beginning.

distinct aroma and taste of
coconuts present
FAQs
Will cooking VCO
cause
hydrogenation ?
Will cooking with VCO cause it to become
hydrogenated and toxic like hydrogenated
oils?
Hydrogenation is an industrial process
where hydrogen molecules are introduced
to the oil to make it solid at room
temperatures It chemically alters the oil
and creates harmful trans fatty acid.
Cooking with VCO does not introduce
hydrogen into the oil or hydrogenate it.
VCO is a very stable oil at even higher
temperatures. However, it is best not to
cook beyond the smoke point of VCO, as
this will begin to deteriote the oil and turn
it yellow. Once it has turned dark yellow,
the oil should be discarded and no longer
used.
