Organic Coconut Oil 500ml — Cold Pressed from Fresh Coconuts
Dhatu Organics Organic Coconut Oil is cold pressed from fresh, organically farmed coconuts — not copra (dried coconut). Cold pressing at low temperatures preserves the natural Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs), lauric acid, and the delicate coconut aroma that is destroyed in refined or copra-based oils. This is a pure, single-ingredient oil — nothing added, nothing removed.
Why MCTs & Lauric Acid Matter
- Rich in MCTs — Medium Chain Triglycerides are rapidly metabolised for energy and support brain function.
- Lauric acid (47%): the main fatty acid in coconut oil.
- High Smoke Point (~177°C) — More stable for cooking than most cold pressed oils.
- Stays solid below 24°C — Natural solidification is normal; gently warm to liquefy.
- Certified Organic — Grown without synthetic inputs.
How to Use
- Cooking: Excellent for stir-frying, sautéing, and baking. Adds a light coconut flavour.
- Coffee and smoothies: add 1 tsp for creaminess.
- Skin moisturiser: Apply directly for deep, long-lasting hydration.
- Hair oil: Traditional use for scalp nourishment and reducing frizz.
- Oil pulling: Swish 1 tbsp for 10–15 minutes for oral health.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why has my coconut oil turned solid?
Coconut oil naturally solidifies below 24°C. This is completely normal and a sign of a genuine, unrefined product. Simply place the jar in warm water for a few minutes or scoop out the amount needed — it liquefies quickly. Solidification and melting cycles do not affect quality.
What is the difference between coconut oil and extra virgin coconut oil?
Both are cold pressed, but extra virgin coconut oil is made from fresh coconut milk (wet-milling), preserving more delicate volatile compounds and a more pronounced fresh coconut aroma. Regular cold pressed coconut oil may use fresh or lightly dried coconut flesh. Both are high quality and nutritionally similar.
Is coconut oil high in calories?
Yes. Like all oils, coconut oil is calorie-dense (about 862 kcal per 100g), so use it in normal cooking amounts as part of a balanced diet.
Can I use this for deep frying?
Yes. With a smoke point of around 177°C, cold pressed coconut oil is suitable for most cooking including deep frying. It is one of the most heat-stable oils due to its high saturated fat content, which resists oxidation at high temperatures.
Can I use it for baby massage?
Coconut oil is traditionally used for massage in South India. For babies, please ask your paediatrician first and do a patch test.
