Oil, flaked, desiccated, shredded, cream, milk, nectar-sweet from the coconut tree flower.....and Amino sauce-savoury...I wouldn't go any other way ..too healthy...and sooo very yummy too..
Coconut-superfood and friend
Coconut is the Paleo enthusiast’s best friend (or at least one of them). Unlike most tree nuts, coconut does not contain omega six fatty acids. Instead, coconut is rich in Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), a very special “short”-chain saturated fat (unlike the longer saturated fatty acids typically found in animal fat). MCTs do not require bile salts for digestion. They diffuse passively from the intestines into the blood and do not require modification before being used as energy for your cells. They are metabolized very easily and, because they are a fat and not a sugar, they can be used by your cells for energy without a spike in your insulin. Also, because MCTs are a saturated fat, they do not oxidize easily or produce free-radicals. Coconut oil is very stable and will keep at room temperature for very long periods of time.
O', yes, nearly forgot, my favourite drink is icy cold organic coconut water...soo refreshing..it was when I decided to take my health in my own hands and try to help myself that I started putting healthier food in.,,it's results are amazing....very positive..Im not a drinker of anything alcohol and gave up smoking 28 years ago..not that it bothers me at all if others do..it's all preference......hope you all have a really lovely weekend...:-) xxx

Good morning Christine in wonderful Oz, I too love coconut water & use coconut oil for numerous things, but not many people seem to have heard of its greatness yet.
Totally agree, there needs to be much more publicity..the health benifits alone are just amazing...glad you like it too Cindy-Lou, have a great day..be blessed..) xxx
