User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a Fair Trade product and produced without the abuse of monkeys
Answer:	According to this article, no monkeys are used in the sourcing of Nutiva coconut oil. "In addition to Essential Trading, the following companies state that their suppliers do not use monkeys: 3 Buddhas, Aunt Patty’s, BetterBody Foods, Carrington Farms, Dr. Bronner’s, Earth Circle Organics, Harmless Harvest, Maison Orphee, Naked Coconuts, Nutiva, Ojio, So Delicious, Silk, and Spectrum Organics." https://www.huffingtonpost.com/nathan-j-winograd/did-an-abused-monkey-pick_b_8341554.html Take it for what it's worth. Even if these companies thought they were sourcing coconuts from ethical sources, who really knows how much they oversee the actual harvest. If the coconut industry is anything like the shrimp industry, there is so much product co-mingled with product from other sources that there's really no way to tell if human trafficking was involved in the shrimp one purchases, despite company assurances. Same with Amazon and how they source certain products from various vendors (some of which are counterfeits), all fulfilled by Amazon, and they all go into the same bin at the distribution centers.
Question:	is this fractionated coconut oil? I need it to stay solid below 74 degrees
Answer:	The oil is solid below 74 degrees.
Question:	Does refined coconut oil have the same antibacterial properties as the unrefined
Answer:	Both refined and unrefined coconut oil contain the same amount of the antibacterial benefits of the fatty acid, lauric acid. However, some of the benefits of the phytonutrients and the polyphenols (antioxidant properties) are lost during the refining process.
Question:	For the manufacturer - why is this described as non-gmo? There are no gmo coconuts, so this statement is misleading
Answer:	Actually.... there ARE GMO coconuts (see article): https://www.just-food.com/news/gmo-coconut-oil-developed-to-boost-exports_id89589.aspx Maybe you should consider doing your own research before lending misleading information and accusing someone else of doing the same. Just some food for thought.

User questions & answers

Question:	This was advertised as being solid, why is it liquid
Answer:	Its only liquid because of the heat . put it in the fridge and it will harden back up.
Question:	Is this product sustainable and cruelty-free
Answer:	This product is made from a real coconut! If you feel that by falling from a very tall coconut palm tree to the ground might have hurt the coconut, then it's not cruelty-free. I've never watched a person climb a coconut palm, carefully cut 1 or more coconuts off & climb back down the tree. Usually, it's a climb, a sake or whack with a machete and scurry down the tree to retrieve the fallen coconuts. Then they're whacked with the knife and the outer layer is removed. Maybe this is cruel also??? What a question you've asked!! Hope the answer clarifies for you.... & that you buy and enjoy the product!!
Question:	what are the nutrition facts
Answer:	Nutritional Facts: Serving Size 1 Tbsp (15mL) Servings Per Container 110 Amount Per Serving Calories 120 Calories From Fat 120 % Daily Value Total Fat 14g 21% Saturated Fat 13g 65% Trans Fat 0g Polyunsaturated Fat 0g Monounsaturated Fat 1g Sodium 0mg 0% Total Carbohydrate 0g 0% Protein 0g Vitamin A 0% Vitamin C 0% Calcium 0% Iron 0% Not a significant source of calories from dietary fiber, sugars, vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, cholesterol and iron.

About the Brand

Nutiva began in 1999 as an idea in the mind of John W. Roulac, the author of four books on home composting and industrial hemp. Nutiva is the third successful business John has founded since jump-starting the modern home-composting movement in the early 1990s with his best-selling book, Backyard Composting. That book has sold more than a million copies worldwide.

Nutiva is an innovative leader in the health food industry. Since 1999, we have operated as a values-driven company dedicated to nourishing people and planet.

We're building a business characterized by high standards in all aspects of our company, from the organic farms that grow our foods, through the production, packaging, and transportation of our products, to the Nutiva associates who communicate with our retailers and the people who enjoy our products.

Our watchwords--nutritious superfoods, healthier people, and a sustainable planet--express our commitment to move beyond conventional food industry practices to embrace a bigger picture that supports the long-term well-being of humanity as a whole.

Nutiva's purpose is to produce the highest-quality organic superfoods, providing superior nutritional value to our customers while supporting sustainable agricultural practices and a fair return to the farmers on whom we depend. We donate 1% of our sales to groups that promote sustainable agriculture.

We educate people worldwide on current developments in nutritional science, organic farming, green energy, and fair trade practices within the global economy.

At Nutiva, we continually innovate so that we can better contribute to the health and happiness of our customers as well as the sustainability of our planet.

Hemp was cultivated in China more than 6,000 years ago, from a wild plant that grew in central Asia.

A Nutritional Powerhouse

Hempseed is considered by leading researchers and medical doctors to be one of the most nutritious food sources on the planet. Shelled hempseed is packed with 33% pure digestible protein and is rich in iron and vitamin E as well as omega-3 and GLA. A recent report funded by the Canadian government states that hemp protein comprises 66% high-quality edistin protein, and that hempseed contains the highest percentage of this of any plant source. Unlike soy, hemp is not genetically modified, and it doesn't contain the anti-nutritional qualities commonly found in soy.

Got Your EFAs today?

Because the human body produces no Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs), it is important that EFAs be consumed on a regular basis. It is estimated that more than 90% of Americans take in too little of one of the most important EFAs--omega-3--which is found in flax, walnuts, deep-water fish, and hempseeds. EFAs are the "good fats" that doctors recommend as part of a healthy, balanced diet. The quality of omega-3 is vital, and can be diminished by oxygen, heat, and light. Thus consume the freshest seeds possible and store them in a dark, cold environment such as a refrigerator. Nutiva obtains its seeds exclusively from Canada, and we date all our products. Great nutrition never tasted so good.

• NATURALLY EXTRACTED and NUTRIENT DENSE: Nutiva’s all-natural cold press extraction process yields a pure, light-tasting, nutrient-rich oil containing 63% medium chain triglycerides and 50% lauric acid without the use of dangerous and harmful chemicals, hexane, or heat

Question:	So if we order this, 15-Ounce Tubs (Pack of 2), we're actually getting 30 ounces total for this price
Answer:	So 15 x 2 = 30! Who knew?
Question:	are the plastic jars BPA & phlalate free? what is the recycle number on plastic jar? Please answer thank you
Answer:	I don't find a recycle number. No numbers except on the bar code . The contents are manufactured for Nutiva in Oxford, CA and is a product of the Philippines. The jar bottom has a triangle with a number 2 in the middle, with the word hope underneath. To the left of the triangle and the word 'hope' is the number 4. Under that is what appears to be a letter 'C' back to back with another one. Sorry I can't help you more.
Question:	I order this coconut oil and the old container says *extra virgin*,now they sent me a new style container & it says *virgin* is it the same
Answer:	Directly from Nutiva, included on this page: “ Please note that there is NO difference between Virgin and Extra-Virgin Coconut Oil. We previously used the term "extra-virgin" to emphasize our commitment to quality, however, as a leader in coconut oil, Nutiva is committed to complying with global regulations that do not allow the term "extra-virgin" in regard to coconut. When you see the term Virgin on our packaging, rest assured that the product is still the highest quality and has not changed.” Simply complying with global regulations in verbiage, not in product or processing.

An allergy to coconuts is rare; however, customers who are allergic to coconuts may experience contact allergic dermatitis to coconut products.

This product contains 100% Extra Virgin Coconut Oil only. No other ingredients are present that would not be suitable for use or consumption

User questions & answers

Question:	I s this a liquid or creamy texture
Answer:	Coconut oil's texture will depend on the temperature where you have it. As someone already noted, it is liquid above about 76 degrees, but solid below that. In Chicago mine is solid and white in winter, but clear and liquid in summer.
Question:	Is this non-hydrogenated
Answer:	Hi Min7, Coconut oil is naturally a hydrogenated fat so it does not need to go through a hydrogenation process. This is what makes it stable! Hope this helps answer your question, and if you have any other questions you can reach us by responding to this comment thread or by email at [email protected].
Question:	Coconut oil is coming up as a great treatment for oral health. Do you brush your teeth before or after a rinse with coco nut oil
Answer:	Hi Main Line Mama,Oil pulling is an ancient practice in Ayurvedic medicine, shown to naturally accelerate the body's detoxification process. Place 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in the mouth and swish for 20 minutes. Swishing activates enzymes and the enzymes draw toxins out of the blood. It is recommended to complete this process on an empty stomach, best in the morning. After 20 minutes, spit out the end product in the trash can and brush your teeth following this step. This will rev up your metabolism for the day and promote healthier gums and teeth due to the health-promoting saturated fatty acids found in coconut oil.

Product description

Our Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is among the healthiest, most versatile dietary oils in the world-and it's RAW. Our Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is simply the best tasting, most aromatic coconut oil on the planet-if you ask us. Unlike refined coconut oils, our Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is not hydrogenated, bleached, refined or deodorized. It is produced using the same methods farmers have used for centuries. Meat from only the finest, organically grown coconuts is shredded and cold-pressed to create coconut milk, then filtered and separated to extract only the highest-quality oil. Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is a stable, healthy, naturally saturated fat that is free from trans-fatty acids. It contains medium-chain fatty acids, including lauric acid, caprylic acid and capric acid, which are readily converted to energy by the body.
