Product Description
Dietary supplement. Medium chain fatty acids. Long a dietary staple of the people of Asia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands, coconut oil has been used for both food and health care. It has been used in Ayurvedic herbalism for 4,000 years and it is a natural oil, lower in calories than most oils. Coconut oil is composed of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are less likely to be stored in the body as fat than are long-chain triglycerides (LCTs). Combined with essential fatty acids, it is a perfect addition to an overall healthy lipid program. The softgels are convenient and easy to swallow.

| 24 of 27 people found the following review helpful  Excellent Product - been using this for years!, By MAB (WA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Source Naturals Coconut Oil Extra Virgin, 240 Softgels (Health and Beauty) Titanium Dioxide is a very common food additive which is used as a white pigment. It's naturally occurring and about 4 million tons are consumed per year worldwide. The only research on it as a possible carcinogen deal with it being INHALED (breathed in), not ingested (swallowed) in plants which manufacture it, where workers are exposed to hundreds of thousands of times more material than what exists in food. I guess someone was too busy oiling their skin up to visit Wikipedia. :)As far as the pill itself, cut one open and you'll find exactly what you paid for - a little coconut meat and a lot of oil. I'm not real crazy about coconut, so being able to swallow a softgel pill is a lot easier for me. I've been using this product for years, and I highly recommend it! 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful Great diet aid, By gddowd (North Carolina) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Source Naturals Coconut Oil Extra Virgin, 120 Softgels (Pack of 2) (Health and Beauty) I've been using coconut oil supplements to help my post-baby weight loss diet and I really feel like it's helped. Especially for those meals where my will power fails and my family is dying to eat out and I eat a little less than as healthy as I want. Usually I would put a little bit of weight back on after those episodes but with the coconut oil the fat doesn't hang out in my body and my weight stays the same. Also my hair looks and feels wonderful and my skin is softer. I take two with lunch and two with dinner rather than four at once also. Great product! Sometimes these types of pills smell or taste funky before you can swallow them or give me some indigestion. But not these. The pills are pretty large though. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful  AVOID THIS - EAT COCONUT OIL!, By Loose Chippings "Loose Chippings" (Lancaster, CA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Source Naturals Coconut Oil Extra Virgin, 240 Softgels (Health and Beauty) This is the biggest waste of money and scam I have seen in a long time. Raw, organic coconut oil is definitely one of the healthiest additions you can make to your diet. (Ignore the claims that because it has saturated fat it must be bad for your heart - WRONG! Not all saturated fats are bad and coconut oil has medium chain fatty acids which means the fat gets converted in your liver into energy and is not stored by the body nor will it clog your arteries.) Anyway, in order to reap the benefits of this wonderful oil you need to eat about 2 -3 tablespoons a day, starting with 1 and working your way up. Guess how many of these pill you need to take in order to accomplish that feat? Something like 40!! Have fun swallowing that many pills and just think about all the yucky gelatin you will be consuming that comprises the coating of these things! You are much better off purchasing raw, organic coconut oil and mixing it your oatmeal or drinks. Use it for cooking and throw away every... Read more |
